Hello Swiftlers,
I started working on v5.0, there are going to be lot of features than you can imagine. I would like to release it with a new logo and a mascot for Swiftlers. I need your help with some graphics and logo. I would appreciate if you can spare some time.
What you will get in return?
If your logo is selected you will get a back link from v5.0 release post and the credits page, apart from the back link you can choose anyone of the following.
- Customization of SWIFT on one of your blog or
- 20$ in cash via paypal.
I know 20$ is very less for what I’m asking but, that is what I can afford at the moment.
Here are what I’m looking for
Logo
I want the logo to be simple, memorable,versatile and appropriate.
- Any colour scheme of your choice, I will build the theme based on the logo
- Soft colours with clean and simple look
- Ideal aspect ratio 4:1
- Easily describable, like the clock in the current logo represent the quick load time of SWIFT theme
- It should be memorable
- It should be effective in black and grey scale only
- It should be scalable, so that it can be used any where
Here are some resources on how to design good logos.
Some logos I liked (Source: logo pond)
Simple and Memorable, I'm not sure how it looks on a different background and in grayscale.
Though the aspect ratio doesnt match my requirements, we can position the text next to the circle.
Meets all the above said requirements.
Versatile, text can be positioned next to image.
Perfect aspect ratio for my requirements.
Perfect aspect ratio again and memorable.
Very simple and memorable.
Don't know what it means, I just like it.
See how the "a" looks like a fish
Eye catchy
Simple logo with image
Simple, Memorable text logo
Good logo except for the colour choice.
I liked the bubbles behind the text.
WOO Ninja
Mascot
I need a mascot representing Swiftlers. I don’t have clear idea of what exactly I need at the moment. May be we can have something like the woo ninja. If you have a good idea pleases post in comments.
If you are not a designer but have some good idea for the logo, please feel to share it.
Mail the logos to satish [at] gmail [dot] com
I will be looking forward for your submissions.
Thanks for your time.
Kind Regards
Satish Gandham
