These are all good submissions, but I can't say that I see one that I really like. However, on July 1st I'm going to review all submissions here and (http://forum.forumer.com/showthread.php?t=65189) and pick the one that is the best, and if the designer delivers all 4 images, he/she will get the prize, (if not, then the next runner will get a chance)
I would like like to see these designed like a banner, not just a logo. Here is an example that I like (however, I would like to see some more creative banners):
Why don't you just give us feedback now so that we can make our designs better?
i would say, the example of the logo is feedback itself to designers ...as to destinctive style this contest holder is asking for. I totally understand, only problem is, Im not a designer. Im a contest holder. LOL
The banner should say things like this:
"free forum hosting"
"99% uptime"
"Unlimited Bandwidth"
"Unlimited Space"
"24/7 Tech Support"
"Domains and sub-domains"
"Instant Setup"
"Instant Activation"
"Click Here"
These are some of the key phrases you can use on the banners.
I will try to find the fonts we used on the logo. The small words are best written in pixel fonts. Here are some pixel fonts for free: http://pixelfonts.style-force.net/
I think these feedback ideas can help you win this contest.
coolwanz, i didn't see your post, i guess we were submitting at the same time. Yours submission has the right idea; because it says things like "free forum hosting" etc... this is what I'm talking about.
To help others to get idea of what we're looking for, here are some banner ads that are cool:
These banners are just samples found on the net. All trademarks and copyrights mentioned above belong to their respective owners.
has anybody followed the link the CH posted to his forum it's offline right now.
maybe the server blew up or something but you better keep an eye on it.
also he's running this same contest on his board so there may not be a winner here at all.
By the quality of the posts here, I would guess that the winner will probably be from here.
There are 5 days left, so if you haven't made your submission, you should start working on it now to be able to meet the deadline.
Although the contest is also accepting submissions from http://forum.forumer.com/showthread.php?t=65189 the submissions on webmaster talk seem to be more creative, thus with a better chance of winning.
I'd love to see some better quality work though,
Good luck!
Hope I'm the winner or at least close to it.
