Some of the designers who made it happen

Winner - AE.Nciola
AE.Nciola perfectly captured the balance between seriousness and whimsy that I needed. Amazing!
- Chris Strom
Finalist - simo.
Very talented, great communicator and able to create based on minimal direction
- Anonymous
Finalist - cy1
I was extremely pleased with cy1's work on my project. He responded very quickly to requested changes and was very willing to attend to the details. I found him to be extremely creative in developing a very unique design. He communicated very clearly, was very personable, and put in extra effort. I plan to continue working with him, and I would highly recommend him.
- Stephen Crilly
Finalist - jarmilArt
JarmilArt did an amazing job. She interpreted the brief perfectly. I will not hesitate to use her again.

Tell us a bit about who you are and the people you reach

Technical ebook publisher and consultancy.

What inspires you and how do you envision the design for your business?

I need a cover for a technical ebook to be named "Dart for Hipsters" (yes, all of the good names were already taken).

The topic of the book is the Dart programming language. It is a very new language from Google, hence the "hipster". Dart is meant to be a replacement for Javascript in the web browser. Its primary goal is speed, hence the name "Dart".

The cover must include:

* The title "Dart for Hipsters"
* My name "Chris Strom" (SPELL IT RIGHT!!!)

Optional:

* Graphic suggesting hipster
* Graphic suggesting a dart or target
* Subtitle: "Fast, flexible, structured code for the modern web"

Desirable:

* Interesting typography -- nothing too fancy, but certainly beyond standard web fonts.

I would like PSD and Illustrator format. The PDF version of the book will be 7"x9". The target size for the marketing web site is roughly 390x500 pixels. Bonus points if it looks good in thumbnail format (110x140).

Other notes

Target audience is web programming professionals and language geeks. You know, hipsters.

Previous contests that I have run:

I *love* this design. Simple, conveys speed and had a comic book feel to it. It definitely stands out from typical technical ebooks.

My co-author and I love this design because of the curly braces (big part of the Javascript computer language) being used to form a backbone.
