Here is the logo I came up with for your site (cool idea by the way!). I wanted to make a horizontal layout, as it lends itself to being placed throughout a website quite well. I replaced the "i" in "Winners" with a triumphant/winning guy, and I replaced the "s" with a dollar sign. Let me know what you think and if you want to see other color options. Thanks in advance!
Love the S being replaced with a dollar sign and the flash on the Winner$ is great since we want to emphasize winning. It may be better to go with darker colors to get into a more aggressive, masculine but classy ambiance overall. A darker script will likely bring out the flash on the I too. Nice job of keeping things simple, it is important to keep things clean and to the point.
I wanted to get your opinion on colors in general. I like the idea of having a silver or platinum script so that it stands out against a black background. Also the flash on the I would stand out too. Let me know if this is an idea that sounds better in theory than in function. This idea comes from liking Apple's mover from the multi-color logo to the silver one. Looking forward to your submissions.
Indeed; I will let you know my thoughts as I finish up. I was reworking some new ideas and haven't had time to submit them yet. I am hoping to get them finished and uploaded for you asap.
Here is a revised design, based on my last one with a lot more dynamism. I also moved the win "burst" to the back of the entire design, rather than just over the dollar sign. Let me know what you think. Thanks!
Very nice. Can we keep everything the way it is on #41, but drop the .com under the Winner$ and give us one design with the burst behind the whole thing and one with the burst only on the $. You are doing good work.
Here is a version with the burst behind the dollar sign only. I am still working on another option for this, to see if I can make it more visually appealing...
This is just like the current top-ranked design, but I upped the contrast between the border and the metallic letters to make them stand out a bit better.
Entry #47 is awesome. We better put the .com back in. Let's center it under the word Winner$.
Great work so far. We are going to rank #47 (actually the one you give us with the .com back in) as #1 in our rankings and it will come down to a vote between you and a variation of the design ranked #2 for the winner.
