Ok…here is the deal. I am drained right now. With the site overhaul, the comic, the shows, and the umpteen jobs I have going right now, I would like to see what the community can come up with for something.
I want to run a contest. You guys create what you think would be the best logo for the ExtraLife site. Right now, there is this:
I want it to be those same dimensions, which are 125 pixels wide x 100 pixels tall. Final format can be PNG, Gif, or JPG. 2d, 3d, whatever…anything is possible.
Along with being the dude that created my site logo, the winner will receive a full sized color print (12 x 18 inch) of any comic in the archives of their choice, signed by me. Like this one for example:
So let’s see what you can do! Send your entries to myextralife at gmail dot com. I will decide in a week based on what I get. Good luck! (EDIT: You can submit as many as you want.)
I’m excited. Too bad I can’t draw anything.
My entry is that which existed at the top left of the old site. You know… the one with the bubbles on the right side.
One question – how many entries can we submit?
Only dudes? Fine with me, but I think some “people” might be upset.
Oops. That didn’t make much sense. I meant to say – I like the old logo. Just my sorry-ass opinion.
I wonder how many Video-Game Extra Life icons we’ll get.
What font did you use for that logo?
Impact, but you can use anything you like.
And by dudes, I mean chicks too.
And the old logo was ok, and if someone improves on that and I pick it? Awesome.
You can submit as many as you want.
Looks like Impact.
…and if nobody comes up with anything better, I win! Bwahaha. This is like bidding $1 on The Price is Right. :p
Why must you distract me from writing my resume, Scott?
The simplistic Extra Life logo is simple. I like it.
That, and I’m pretty sure a certain green mushroom is copyrighted.
I wonder if Utah has Big Lots…..
Sorry it just looks a lot like that particular logo.
I like it as it is now.
Well, I’m thinking about making something for this.
Haven’t been with EL for too long and I haven’t yet participated in anything as of yet, but I think this would be a good place to start.
However, the only thing I need to know is this: how many days is a “few days” exactly?
I may be asking too much, but seeing as how I’m still in high school and finals are this week, I don’t have too much free time on my hands with all the studying I need to do.
I’d just like to know if it’ll be by or after this weekend.
Thanks.
scott, do you want the logo to be very flashy, pretty, and graphic design-ee, or just nice and simple like all of them?
Any preferences regarding the color scheme?
No rules…do what you think looks best. THe time is one week.
The printed commics look great by the way Scott. I have the one in the picture above now hanging on my wall and framed. I’ll snap a shot and send it over for your flikr feed. Good luck with the contest.
Wow, that is one to many m’s in comics. It seems once I start writing mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm’s I just can’t stop.
Here’s mine, Scott!
