Title: [BOUNTY] Graphic Designer for Terracoin Logo and Icon Set
Post by: crazy_rabbit on January 23, 2013, 12:28:26 PM
As much as I really do like the Terracoin Logo (and the screaming parody- anyone put that in 'the scream' yet?) I'd like to put a bounty out there for a new Terracoin logo and a set of Icons to go along with it. This way people developing services have something to show for icons.

Basically I'm looking for someone to design a set of Terracoin logos, plus some "Terracoin/Accepted here", "Terracoin/ Pay now" icons. This isn't an exhaustive list, just some examples. Style wise they should look good, like something you would see on modern websites for endconsumers.

I'll pay 1000TRC for a finished Terracoin Logo and icon set, but I'd like to have some input in the design.
Here are some example of regular free webicons that I think have a nice feeling to them: http://www.freeiconsweb.com/Free-Downloads.asp?id=2079

PM me with questions or post here suggestions. Although I'm looking for one Logo and set, I'll give out smaller number of coins for effort as well. I'm also open to community input as well.

cheers!

How does this look?

First one is the default icon and second could be shown when moused over the first one to give a highlight effect.

I think it's a nice direction, but still a little 1980's tech corporation for me. I'm thinking something more plasticy-feeling, modern- web 3.0 kinda. Softer.

Sure, I can see what you mean.  I'll make some changes and maybe go in a bit of a different direction.  By the way, how important is scalability?  The samples I posted are all vectored so can be scaled infinitely without any loss in quality.  I'm assuming you're not planning on creating any billboards or doing too much print so working with rastered files instead shouldn't be a problem?  Could broaden options a bit.

I'll try something in blue as well Der Meister ;)

...and who the heck came up with that coin on Flikr?  I'm assuming that wasn't sanctioned by you?  Kinda funny...

The crescent makes it look a little like "the islamic coin of Terra".

I like the direction golden wings was going in terms of simplicity and clean. Although the heart is strange.


Title: Re: [BOUNTY] Graphic Designer for Terracoin Logo and Icon Set
Post by: Kryptox on January 24, 2013, 01:55:03 PM
I agree about keeping it clean and simple.  Simple is always better and won't age.

I do like the simplicity of Golden Wing's idea, I'm not a fan of cursive fonts though.  Zaph Chancery is always overused in the wrong places and it's turned me off.  I like his shopping cart. :)

My take on "web 3.0" is "gloss and candy", but a change in direction is cool too.  At this point if you have a bias towards a specific direction or want to see some tweaks let us know.

Post by: der_meister on January 24, 2013, 03:27:48 PM

Thanks, good one. Coins are round and Terra (Earth) is also round, so I can't find reason to be in other shape. For me the true is somewhere between the logo above and blue-Earth-square logo. :)


Title: Re: [BOUNTY] Graphic Designer for Terracoin Logo and Icon Set
Post by: Walter Rothbard on January 24, 2013, 06:36:59 PM
I'll stick with square logo design. All other coins use circle, no need for one more.

Why not go triangular?

Quote
In fact there are three freely convertible currencies in the Galaxy, but none of them count. The Altarian Dollar has recently collapsed, the Flainian Pobble Bead is only exchangeable for other Flainian Pobble Beads, and the Triganic Pu has its own very special problems. It exchange rate of eight Ningis to one Pu is simple enough, but since a Ningi is a triangular rubber coin six thousand eight hundred miles along each side, no one has ever collected enough to own one Pu. Ningis are not negotiable currency, because Galactibanks refuse to deal in fiddling small change. From this basic premise it is very simple to prove that the Galactibanks are also the product of a deranged imagination.

Post by: crazy_rabbit on January 24, 2013, 10:28:14 PM
It's good point, doesn't have to be square.

Do yourself a favour and browse gallery showing logos worth few hundred US dollars each (http://www.hatchwise.com/design-portfolio).

I suggest you to better not chose any logo than chose noobish one.
The site you linked has website/business logos. I browsed a few pages and didnt see any suitable for a currency.

Actually if I understand it right, you pay a flat fee for professional freelance designers to pitch ideas, and then for a flat fee you get to pick one. A very good idea to be honest.

Only noticed this today. As Terra means Earth I think the logo should really have the Earth in it - like a latin T on a slight angle with a round Earth in the background - if I have time I might send you some stuff anyway Crazy Rabbit :)
