WebProWorld members,

I'm pleased to announce WebProWorld's first-ever Logo Design Contest! This contest is brought to you by your fellow WebProWorld member cyanide and the team at FX Studios.

FX Studios Logo

After analyzing their business, FX Studios have come to the conclusion that it’s a much better option to have a third party develop a suitable corporate logo. Sometimes it’s more difficult to diagnose your own situation than it is to see someone else’s design process.

So, FX Studios have turned to the valued members of WebProWorld and opened the door for a solution to the problem. They are looking for a logo to represent the company’s interests.

Tehy have two (2) main divisions:
Web Hosting: http://www.fxstudios.net
Web Development: http://www.fxstudios.ca

If you go to each site, you will see each one has a ‘temporary logo’. Obviously, neither is doing the job. The Development website was taken down in order to give it a massive overhaul and it hasn’t been fully implemented or uploaded yet, as it was preferred to wait until a suitable logo comes along.

Basically it’s a 2-in-1 logo.
Cyanide's personal preference is to have the same logo for both, with possibly a slight alteration for each logo encompassing the slogan (i.e. ’Web Hosting’ and ‘Web Development’)

Design Parameters:
a) They would like to stick with the site's current colours (i.e. black, green, silver) and would prefer the background being black.
b) The logo should have a look that would almost work with any background colour (e.g. white, for letterhead/newspaper). Obviously the text colours may have to be changed (they would do that themselves), but the ‘look' and 'style’ should remain
c) The logo must have flexibility in sizing as they plan on using it for other avenues besides the Web, such as print, newspaper, signs, etc., so vector/Illustrator is preferred
d) For display purposes, designs can be exported as a .gif or .jpg and posted to this thread

FX Studios would like to leave the door open for your creative prowess to shine through. If, however, anything is unclear or you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact cyanide via PM or email.

Time Frame:
The deadline for all entries will be Monday, December 29th, 2003.
