Graphic Design Contests

Contest Ended

By popular demand

I am separating the logo from the template contest; I want the best that I can get in both.

This contest will be for a logo with a mascot or graphical character for DogsChoice.com. The site sells grooming supplies and targets women 22-45. I also get business from dog show people so accuracy in the character design is important.

I would like a dog character: smart and trustworthy looking but also friendly with just enough cuteness to keep it from looking harsh. I don't want anything too cartoonish and if you can make something that looks like an actual dog breed it would be appreciated. A couple of additional angles or poses would be nice for other places in the site.

I would like vector images in PSP or PSD layers - if there are many layers please name them.

Ooops, I'm sorry. Make that 11/7/06. That is a few days after the end of the template contest so that after the template is choses, contestents can modify their logo entries if they want to match the template.

Hello, thank you for this contest opportunity.

My paypal address is advertising@teamforbidden.com Please let me know what you think!

Woosh, these are adorable. I particularly like the tail wagging and there is something about the collar showing on that one that I like too. The only thing on this guy I would like to see would be some variations in facial expression: maybe worried, super excited, a smug/ confident I told you so expression.

Neither of those fonts really excite me but I do like the brush strokes better than the block. I also think the pup is too tall to be standing on top of the letters, makes the logo too large. Maybe next to them or behind looking over.
