I know its not much to offer, but i need to save money for other things for the site...

Ok, I cant give too much information on the site at this point, but I would like the logo to say...

Forum-Forum.com
A Forum for Forum Owners and Enthusiasts.

(unless you can come up with a more catchy motto, if so feel free to add it in there!)

Im designing the forum myself, but for some reason im having a lack of ideas on the logo/header...the site is about forums...

the header will be placed in the following image...so feel free to DL this image to help you place it...if you need the PSD, i can send it to you, no problem.

Also I would very much like it if in the header you could include some sort of unique yet funky looking symbol/icon/logo thing... Like maybe two 3Dish Fs, or some cool symbol, be creative! keep it simple though plz? Whatever it is it has to be a very clean/easily-resizeable image, because i want to have something to re-use throughout the site for on/off icons and such.

PRIZE:

$20 AND credit on the site, wich i plan on having a very LARGE volume of members. This would be GREAT exposure for designers...on the bottom of the site it will say logo by YOU!

Contest will end...next saturday or August 3rd(not set in stone, If theres a designer I want to see who enters late, I will wait)! I will most likely be posting this contest in other forums as well.


In conclusion: im looking for a cool/semi-simple logo that can be re-sized fairly easily used in a header to be placed in the following template...

I will need the PSD from the winner so I can make any slight changes that I want. Payment via paypal, any question you can email me or PM me.

Thanks for your time and good luck!

Yes, I have VERY BIG plans for it :)...hope youll check it out when it goes live...we will be investing most of our efforts into advertising at first to gain a solid member base, then from there the site will evolve rapidly.

Anyways this is off the subject, for now we need an attractive professional logo/header!

How about this. I'll give you the psd along with the fonts I used. I can't use paypal but I'll do it for $15 via money order, you don't have to give me any credit at all, the $15 money order is fine. E-mail me at ghmeade@adelphia.net

Ok, that's great! I figured you'd pick one in a few hours :) Is the $15 money order fine if I get the design?

Hello nocturnix123,

I spent some more time on it, and I think you'll like this one. It will need some specific customization, mabye a change in fonts and color, but the idea is there.

I think this one is a bit better

resurepus...not too bad, seem to be on the right track somewhat, the logo and some of the lines need to be cleaned up though, look kinda rough...also maybe try some other colors for the logo, as its hard to see on the yellow background and such.

edit : the second one with the white glow helps the issue of being the same color...but the yellow diagonal bar still needs its lines cleaned up, they look rough...and maybe play around with adding some to the background...possibly some screenshots of forums, or icons of forum software on very low opacity? :) This goes for everyone by the way!

also maybe you guys could try out some 3d shapes? i really like how it looks...must be very clean 3d shapes though, i like www.pixelbrick.com 's 4 blocks.

thanks,
