for the contest Cool/Fun Logo for Cool/Fun Bidness
Submitted design #3
I went with the bee idea you had. Please let me know where I should go from here. Thanks
i like it a lot! are the edges smoother? or does it look a little jagged because of the format it is displayed in online? also, lets see what happens experimenting with the colors of the 'body' of the bee, but keep this one saved as well so we can compare
thanks!
also, what would it look like if the text was just a little bit thicker?
also, is it possible to put in vector format so that it will be easily resized?
thanks. yes, vector format is very doable here. the edges do look a bit jaged because it was resized. i will mess around with the text and color and submit another real soon.
Submitted design #13
redrawn with vector shapes, easily resized. i also messed around with different text style and colors. let me know what suits you and what i could do to make them better.
the one with the eq effect is tight. what would that one look like with the bee having the red body like before, as well as other colors ie the green, but with a slight reflection of the text, and the bottom of the bee (the 3rd to the bottom curve) not being transparent so it kind of sticks above the eq's.
hope that explains it right
Submitted design #14
added a slight reflection to the text, and put the bottom part of the bee all the way in front, two color variations.
looking good. two things: 1. im curious as to what it would take to be able to add some type of 'glaze' to it, ya know that 'web 2.0 glaze' or i don't know what i should call it lol
2. i'm curious as to if there would need to be another version that would work well over a black background as well, so it'd be a version for a white back, and a version for a darker colored back. but #14 is definitely tight
one other thing..is it possible to still get the edges to be a bit cleaner? lemmie know
im on it
let me know if i'm clear on explanation. really like the way this latest one is going, so lets see where it is after the last suggestions.
Submitted design #26
ok, so here's a version with a kind of a glazed style. im not sure what kind of button you would like for the 'buzz it' text. i didnt want the logo to look too crowded by adding too many shapes. i also included a version with a black background, dont pay too much attention to it. it was a quick atempt, if you would like, i can make an actualy version for you. and in the middle is a scaled up version yo show you the edges are actually smooth.
nice work, yes i would like to see an actual version of it with the black background as well. feel free to play around with the 'buzz it' text, like you said nothing to crowded, but at least so it is easily identifiable as a button, without overcrowding. cool with the smooth edges;)
also, could you show an example with the 'buzzes' box being empty as well? thanks
Submitted design #30
here's two versions with a black background and a lighter colored logo, and also a new 'buzz it' button. i tried making the shapes similar to the actual 'digg it' style. i can adjust the colors with the black background or try different backgrounds if needed.
nice work, can you please make a 'display' that includes versions with both black and white backgrounds, as well as the 'buzz it'version as well? also, a version with the green color as well?
i like how the bee has shiny eyes on #30
Submitted design #31
red
Submitted design #32
green
one more request please, same thing but with the blue you used in #13, if you have the time
and if possible, try a lil glaze over the bee's 'body' as well;) just curious what that would look like
Submitted design #34
blue. added a slight highlight or 'glaze' effect to the top two. let me know if there's absolutely anything else i can do
for sure nice. is it possible that i would be able to get it in more colors as well? maybe like 4 or 5 cool colors?
do you mean more than one color in the same logo? or just the logo in different color options? if so, that is very possible! whichever colors you want
just the logo in different color options;)
and one more thing you were probably right the first time without the 'glaze' on the body. i was trying to figure out how to make the body have a 'glowing' effect, but guess that wasn't it lol
then again it does work pretty cool? or what do you think? lol!
k one more idea to try out too. this may or may not work, but what if the eyes had a type of glowing color or something like that faintly, maybe with a radial gradient or something. like i said this may or may not work, but if you don't think it looks good while working on it then don't worry bout it lol
ok and on emore lol. the actuall 'buzz it' rectagular shape, i will want it to have an alt version that will show up when the user rolls the mouse over it if possible
will do! i should have the next submission tomorrow afternoon. Thanks
i forgot to mention that i like the 'glazy' feel of the 'wings' on #30 rightside, along with the glazy 'eyes'. would it look good with both? or just the eyes?
as far as the black back
Submitted design #36
the eyes now have a little bit of a gradient to them. and the ones on the right have a slightly differernt button that would look good on rollover.
Submitted design #37
glaze on eyes and wings, black background
lookin good.question, what do you think about the gradient eyes? also, is it possible to try making the rollover 'buzz it' text the color of that versions bee body, or if not, then maybe a light stroke around the rectangular shape
I think I like the eyes more like #37 with the black background, thats just my opinion. I can make the rollover text the same color as the bee (whatever color that may be). I think that would look good too.
yep i agree. is it possible that i would be able to get it in the colors: red, green, blue, orange, yellow, and possibly pink? would that take long?
also, if you have the time, see what it would look like with a litle stinger, if u don't think it looks cool or adds to it, then don't worry bout it
Thank you very much!
Here is a quick mock up of it with a stinger.

i will send you the .psd with the different color folders labled. i will do each of the colors you listed. would you like each color with both black and white backgrounds?
congratulations mayne! good job, i guess i can say i'm ur first win on here;) as far as the stinger, what do you think?
i think i kinda like it, but im used to seeing it without it haha. i think it adds a little something to it actually. i can always throw it in there and you just 'deselect it' if you would rather not have it in there, cool?
yea i'm used to seeing it without the stinger too. i just don't know yet, i think i like it, but i still don't know lol.
