best-insults.com is releasing some major updates within the next 2 months, with this in mind i feel its about time to get a logo for the site... still haven't got one lol.

Anyways, the logo must be web format only, I dont want print format at all.

Ideas for the logo that I have is like a middle finger or someone pulling a moony but feel free to use/do anything.

deadline is for the end of feb, thats 5 weeks. Lets see how this turns out smile.gif

For an idea of the stye of dseign im going for the site, pixel2life members have exclusive access to the beta design site. (not really that exclusive but no-one else has seen it except best-insults staff tongue.gif)

Well I'm not good at drawing cartoons or people, but I'll see what I can do smile.gif
bobbobicus
It doesn't have to be what i said, there is free range to do anything you want really.

"but feel free to use/do anything." is what I said.

Please feel free to do whatever comes to mind, i am fairly open about the logo.

Thanks biggrin.gif

As someone who has been through lot of contests, Id sugest you dont make such long contests...
In a lets say 7-10 days contest youll get equal numbers of entries...
This way, everyone will wait the 7 last days then submit something...
And designers can provide you with an awesome logos in a day or two, and noone wants to wait a month for something smile.gif

No offense or anything, just my humble opinion smile.gif

P.S. Ill probably wait till the last couple of days smile.gif first entrants never win biggrin.gif

Hey zymurgy, just curious, is the link you provided to (best-insults.com/beta) the *new* layout it's going to be like? because it looks the same as the one on best-insults.com...don't wanna be designing for the wrong layout, cuz you said you had a new layout going...
bobbobicus
sorry, should have said, new layout was released yesterday. apologies.
bÆko
count me in.

a couple of ideas.. more sketches than logos as it is now, but if this is not at all what you're looking for - in this direction, please let me know.

bobbobicus
I like the concept of the bottoms ones, however, you cant see the word insults and as this is part of the sites name i would require it to be seen. Great start though.

I like it, symbolizes the "best" part of the name more, thats great smile.gif

also coincides with an idea for an update sometime this year so could be a possible there smile.gif

again, great start. I am quite pleased with the ideas that are coming out so far and look forward to sitting down with the rest of the team of best-insults and picking the final design.

I know there is a while to wait yet, but i could end the competition earlier and it wont matter because the logo wont be added till the updates released on the 28th of Feb.

When I thought of Best Insults, the one thing that kept running through my mind was insult comic. So here's what I came up with.

Thats cool man.

One thing I have noticed on MTV recently is a program called "Yo Mamma" dunno if anyone has seen it but its absolutely hilarious. Basically people have stand offs and insults each other and their mums which is one of the ideas i have had for best insults and will be implemented this year some time.

Maybe that will spark some more ideas for people?
