Graphic Design Contests

**neroux** · 01-18-2006, 11:01 AM

Hi,

I am in the need for a logo for a new website and am opening therefore a contest. Below is the necessary information.

Site's name: HijackMe.com

Tagline:
Feel the Thrill
(or as alternative - whatever sounds better)
Sense the Thrill

If you have a better one in mind please feel free to use it and it will be worth US$ 3.

What it is about: The site allows you to register any URL to which its visitors are then randomly redirected.

Colors: Nothing specific in mind

Format: Vector based (preferable Illustrator)

Price: US$ 20 (via Paypal)

Thanks & Cheers

PS: Once there is the logo, also a US$ 10 button will be in the queue.

First one!

**neroux** · 01-18-2006, 06:06 PM

Thank you gringo. The color combination is nice, but the font seems rather plain and I do not really associate the logo with the site's purpose.

One idea ¹) which I could imagine for the logo might be something like a cartoonish thief/robber/hijacker.

Thanks!

¹) really just an idea, nothing final - I am more than open for other suggestions.

If I have time, I'll enter. As for your tagline, maybe.... "Life on the edge" or something like that. Maybe not that, exactly (It is a little cheezy), but something like that because if it's a site that redirects you randomly, I don't really associate that with thrill, but rather, curiosity or even risk.

Just a thought...

**nac** · 01-18-2006, 06:23 PM

I might enter soon

Thanks, I came up with "thrill" in reference to "hijack".

Hi bellweather, thanks, looks nice but I dont really see it in connection with the site. Also the fox looks funny but a bit weird.

**neroux** · 01-20-2006, 11:02 AM

If there are no other entries, the contest will be closed at 22:00 GMT.

**Globalgamez** · 01-20-2006, 12:57 PM

**fancymoustache** · 04:20 PM

Here are a couple of attempts. Nothing too fancy. colors can be changed, and everything can be resized to whatever you'd like.

**grammapecos** · 10:31 PM

Thanks for your submissions. Here some comments.

fancymoustache
I really like the font, but the background images arent something I associate with the site.
grammapecos
1 and 2 dont look bad, but with another font and although the guy is similar to what I thought of, he looks a bit too funny/friendly. I am not looking for Jack the Ripper, but a bit more serious wouldnt be bad. By the way, are these vectors?
Globalgamez
Sorry, its a bit too generic.

got the cartoon idea from your post-above
no they arent vector
I can use any font you would like

**Eightyeight** · 01-21-2006, 12:26 AM

grammapecos, can I ask where you got that image from? (if you didnt make it I want a link)

**Eightyeight** · 01-21-2006, 12:48 AM

my attempt:

**grammapecos** · 01-21-2006, 04:25 AM

Eightyeight
I like the one above

I sent you a pm on the clipart-

**neroux** · 01-21-2006, 09:44 AM

Sorry grammapecos, Vector is a requirement.

Eightyeight, I like it - same question, is it a Vector? - but could we tweak the face somehow? Its kind of plain.

Thanks everyone, great jobs!
