Nexus Logo & Footer Contests!

Post by Yakima »

Dray proposed that we open the new logo up to the rest of you. I also want to throw in something for the footer, too. So, without further adu...(or however it is spelled), I present the New Nexus Logo Contest and the Flits and a Footer Contest! :P

1. New Nexus Logo Contest
Rules:
* You must use the current logo as the base (the oval shape).
*You MUST have the pencil in the desgin. THis is to tie into the "Erasing the Lines" part of our slogan...and paint brushed don't have erasers. :)
* It can be in color and shaded (There is a big possibiliy that I will redo the choosen logo(s) in Illustrator unless you have Illustrator and render it that way. This gives me more flexability when resizing and stuffs). It can be black and white but I/you will have to render a colored version for the site.
* Colors should corolate with the website. I like the white dragon I have currently so a white dragon/gryphon/wolf, whatever would be great. I think it works with the design and makes the little pencil mine is holding stand out.
* Multiple logos may be choosen and put into a cycle on the page to have a different one each page load/refresh (like JKat's thing)
* Just draw something and don't worry about pleasing me. We all vote at the end. :) I just have to be able to work with it afterward.

2. Flits and a Footer Contest
* Any flit species is game for this...and I prefer multiple ones not just one species. (see attachement for what I'm thinking...note you can have them getting into any kind of trouble :P)

* I would like these to be finished, shaded and in color with colors that will work with the current color sceme. (white, ornage, yellow for sure will work.)
* If you want me to render them in Illustrator I can. if you Render them in Ilustrator I will want the .ai file to change colors if I have to.
* Again, have fun and lets see what we get!

How much time do we have to work on the design(s) ? If I have some free time and the inspiration strikes me, I'd be interested in giving it a go. I need more excuses to learn Illustrator! :)

My class dosn't start till July 16th and even then I have about 6 weeks before the project will officially be assigned, as far as I remember. So you have time. I can't call a deadline just yet.

Sounds good! I'll mull it over and see if anything jumps out at me. :)

Oh, and if anyone can't tell, in the sketch i did, there are two flits (center on the top of box), one has his head and two paws on the top while the other one is standing on his head...as if he used the other to climb up on to the box using his friend as a ladder...I think i was thinking of Philippe and M'len at the moment. (M'len would be the one used as the ladder and Philippe the one who stands heroicly on the top). It was a scribbled mess and I couldn't see it just now so I wanted to point it out for a fyi moment. :P
