originally was working with the idea of beach but realized it also sort of creates the feeling in the abstract of sea and sky melding together which is sort of what it feels like there sometimes. C
However I have a picture of a Lagoon at The Ko Olina Resort that I would like to have as a background - Can I send you this JPEG of the Lagoon and then overlay your Logo on the Lagoon?
Am a little confused. Do you mean just the words overlaid on the picture of the lagoon? or the words and the starfish? To tell the truth, i am not sure of the rules for just sending me the pic. There would be no problem doing either of the above treatments (overlaying the words and/or words and starfish) either during or with the files you get after. Can you check with LT staff and if alright to send, send to carla@cdinucci.com. (I am guessing it would be alright, but want to make sure it wouldn't be violating any rules). Also, I am hoping you check the comments area here, because I cannot directly respond to you unless you send me a private message. (private message initiation has to come from the contest holder first. But once you contact me, i can send messages directly to you and answer or ask questions directly, which makes sure that you do get notified that i am sending information (as opposed to the content area like this, where I just have to hope you see.) It makes it easier to communicate in the long run, but they let contest holders initiate (until the very last /final phase when whoever is in first can also initiate) so you don't have a bunch of designers messaging you "pick me" or something--I guess a protective measure.)
I can also inquire with staff myself, but I am guessing you would be responded to more quickly than I.
I see that you have already sent the pic to someone else, so it must be okay. please upload the jpg to the contest site or send to the email listed in above comment.
