I want to present my online portfolio to some new clients soon, but my Logo selection is a little meager. I have a slew of things I'd love to put online now, but my employers would rather I keep it under wraps until they obtain their trademarks. Boo. So, in the meantime, I'd like to beefen up my logo work while being a little charitable. If any of you guys need any sort of branding, identity, or logo.. for anything, be it your next game, your new business, website.. shoot me as many details as you can in this thread, and I'll make you what you need, whatever resolution, however graphical you'd like it. I'd typically charge more, but since you guys would be helping me out (and are loveable GDNetters!) I'll only $10, via paypal (or whatever's easiest). The queue will obviously be: FILO. So if you need something, tell me. Cheers, and look both ways before crossing. UPDATE: Paypal addy is jrhode@gmail.com. [Edited by - Salsa on August 4, 2006 10:02:32 AM]

Wait a tick... I may have suddenly lost half my brain cells, but doesnt FILO mean First In - Last Out - Meaning a stack.. So wouldnt you be wanting a FIFO queue here?

I'll take one.

I'm looking for a header logo for my GDNET journal, Destructive Design. I'd like the color theme to match the default black/blue GDNET theme, and there to be some kind of samurai/swordsy/destructive imagry to it. The logo as a whole should feel self-contained with a black background. (EDIT: Or, a transparent background. Which I normally fail to realize exists.) Dimension-wise, 600x120 pixels would fit perfectly, however, the height may range anywhere from 60-200 pixels to suit your needs.



I'd like to pay via Paypal - PM me the account to send the money to and I'll get the payment to you tommorrow sometime. Hopefully you'll decide to use FIFO instead of FILO - I'd hate to be the last one to boast more of your awesome stuff.

Yay :)



EDIT: After writing this, I realize I have no idea what a logo is. LOL. Hooray for operating under guesswork. I guess that's what I get for posting late at night. Hur hur hur.

EDIT2: Yep. After reading Wikipedia a "logo" is definitely not the same thing as a "banner". In any case, I'd still like to see what you can do for me. I guess my request would be the exact same as above, except with more logo-ish dimensions. As opposed to banner-ish dimensions. LOL. I can't wait until I have to deal with people like myself. Hur hur hur. In any case, I have such faith in your mad skillz that I have no doubt that you'll not fail to please. Just make sure to let me know where to send teh monnies.

I'd love to get in on this, too! Never having asked for anything like this, I'm not sure about exactly what info I should put, but I hope this is about right.

I could use a logo for my website for my music and sound self-promotion website, http://www.jervinmusic.com. The logo should contain either the text "Jervin Music" or "JErvin Music" - I'm not sure if the E should be capital or not, so either way would be fine. I don't need the logo in a specific size, but it should work displayed at the top of the page.

Ideally, it, or a variant on it, would also work to be displayed in banner advertisements or have an icon that I could have you or another graphics designer change for use as an avatar or for other linking, advertisement, and display. My current web page is based off a free online template and I'm planning to change it, so the logo doesn't need to match the color or style. Since I will hopefully get my act together and get a whole new website soon, I'm also interested in any kind of style a logo might suggest.

I imagine you're about to be flooded with requests, but should that somehow not be the case and you need more, it would be great to get an icon for an avatar, banner ad, and similar matching the logo as I previously mentioned (paying for teh additional work, too, certainly). I can pay via paypal or other method; just let me know where to send it!

If you still have time - I would like some sort of easily scalable logo for use in creative endavours (video/music/art/etc.) Preferably based on my name or variants.æ In a minimalistic design.

OM for details if interested pls :)

I'd buy a logo too but we have yet to decide what the company name is going to be...

The business lawyer is coming this Wednesday and we're apparantly supposed to have our name ready...

I'll get one of them too, i've got someone lined up to work on branding in a little while, but it wouldn't hurt to get a logo design from you as it may well be better.

Well the unedited logo is currently just a big old graphical font I found for the symbol, and some lame text which nearly fits it:



Course, that won't do so I began messing with it:



The pixelated background is intentional but not perfect by any stretch, I like the design quite a bit as a concept - but it's litteraly that size, so not print quality (i'd idealy like a v high resolution version) and it doesn't exactly integrate into a website or.. well anything [grin].

Oh go on then :D

Here is the lovable paint version.



Something that works in 320x200 or 640x400 (while looking okay scaled down to 320x200) is preferred if possible. (resolutions for adventure games i'm attempting to do, if you want to do it smaller, that's fine and it can just be centred.)

Art wise i'll leave that up to you ;)

Paypal is good!

I have a small project studio recording business that I run from my basement. It's called XXII-22 Productions.

I need a logo that resembles the one found at myspace. If you scroll down to the comments on the page, there is one by XXII-22 Productions. It has 3 isometric boxes that are purple, red, and blue. if I could get a large logo that resembles this in some way I would be very very thankful.

As long as it's fairly simplistic, even with the company name at the bottom in old-school video game font (System font maybe) it would be great.

OMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

Now that we're both resonating equally with the universal word, we can communicate telepathically about the details. :)

Hah! Yes, the stack here is FIFO. My foolish mistake. Consider all of yourselves queued. I'm going to sneak in time at work today to start some of them, but my girlfriend is coming down tonight and staying for the weekend to celebrate my Mother's birthday. I'll try and have most of the above finished by Monday.

Wow. An offer too good to refuse, though I may have to since I'm not yet entirely sure what I'm looking for.

How long are you willing to keep this offer open for Salsa? So I can have a good hard ponder on what I want.

BTW, flicked through your site. Seriously great work.

Ok, so Mushu I hate to break it to you, but I'm going to hold off on your banner until a little later, because I'm going to create a full illustration for it. Tee-hee. In the meantime, here's your logo Jervin.

What I'm going to do for everyone is post their screen resolution logo here. Then, based on the honor system, I'll hope you send me the money. As soon as I get your payment, I'll e-mail you guys the vector or high-rez versions (which you can use in any sort of scalable medium).

My paypal e-mail is jrhode@gmail.com. I'll stick it in the original post as well.



I think you can guess what the logo concept is based off of, and I went for a clean crisp look which is somewhat oriented to your current layout.

You're too kind salsa. :P

Your free to use the logo's that you designed on for my site if you wish. Also if you're up for it I have some game artwork for you to do. Right now I'm mapping out the texture blocks for the game using basic colours, so they can eventually be filled in.

Umm, question: if this isn't spam, why is this?

Sure, I know we all know Salsa, and he *did* post an appropriate title, but why'd the other guy get locked out so hard and fast? (Why didn't the mod just move it to announcements or something)


I'm confused about what is and isn't appropriate "spamming" procedure around here.

p.s. No, I have no affiliations to whoever the last guy was.

Probably a variety of factors. If you look at that guy's profile, you'll notice he made 2 posts. Which means 1 was deleted.

From that, we can't say exactly what happened in that first post since we're not priviledged enough to view deleted posts. But I'd imagine it was annoying enough to not cut him any slack after an initial "Don't do that" warning.

Salsa, on the other hand, is a well-known and awesome artist who is, rather than soliciting purely for profit, is asking us for ideas for him to enhance his portfolio. Yes, he is charging some money, but compared to normal prices its hardly substantial enough to be considered spam.

Finally, Salsa is a moderator, and as a moderator is allowed a little extra lee-way on the forums. Because, hey, they deserve it - their awesome volunteer work deserves something, right?

PS: Salsa - I sent you the monnay! No need to rush anything though, take your time crafting awesomeness :]

For the low limited-time offer of $10 you can get a logo worthy of a project [wink]
