CONTEST OVER. Winner: JohnTheGoat

Looking for a specific kind of logo.. Im thinking of making a sign for my mining facility so if any of you designers out there are interested in a quick buck here goes:

I suppose those without much design capability have a shot at this too- it would be something quite simple.
Black silhouette design of a Spartan soldier, helmet, spear, shield the lot. What I was thinking was to place the bitcoin logo inside the centre of the shield or if you want to get creative can have him holding up the logo in his hand, ill leave that to you guys. Also quite possibly the words incorporated with the logo or seperate from it saying "SPARTAN MINER". I like the idea of ancient greek style font for this.
I have mucked around with an image, this is what I came up with and you guys can work with this and fix it up:

The bounty will go to whoever can get this looking good, I want to change the head to that of a spartan warrior helmet (something along the lines of this: http://condition1industries.com/images/SpartanHelmetWMolanLabeWeb.jpg), clean up the edges, add a bitcoin logo on top of the hill above the parthenon temple kind of resembling a sun in the background. Add steps to the parthenon like this http://i.istockimg.com/file_thumbview_approve/10255728/2/stock-illustration-10255728-greece-s-parthenon.jpg or this http://stickeramoi.com/1144-1225-thickbox/autocollant-parthenon-muraux.jpg

So I have done most of the thinking for you guys and now you can just edit I suppose.

Winner has the option to receive funds in LTC (btc-e rate at time of payment) or BTC (bitstamp rate at time of payment).

On it.

Awesome :)

I put some choppy parts for extra security :)

on working details

U idiot lol. 11uBTC sent. 1 for the drawing and 10 to stay the hell away from logo contests in future :)


I respect the artwork and appreciate the effort you put into your submission, and I mean no disrespect when I say its a little too busy for me. I was more after silhouette style logo, black and white, with the only colour being the orange in the bitcoin logo. That definitely has to stand out. The writing in the shield may or may not work, but I would want it to stick out a bit more and all caps too.. Good effort though thankyou :)

Looking forward to it!

So where are you guys stealing those cliparts from? -.-

Noooooo offence but my ancestors would be rolling in their graves if I went with this  :o

Saw lot's of stolen logos already. Usually the best logos that you find in the crypto world are stolen, because you can't possibly get a good logo that includes an illustration if you do a contest.

Illustration is not even requested if you read first post again.

Oh, true. I didn't bother reading it tbh. Saw a big wall of bold text and then skipped to the pictures. I don't do contests, where 10 people do the work and 9 of them work for free, but I sometimes go look at the results for fun.  ;D

I am on it!!!!

I will not steal logo ... :)

give me an hours.

god help me i didnt think this would be such a difficult task.. it just has to be black and white thats all, no huge amount of detail or anything. i think ill have a crack myself too lol

Made this too see if this is in the right direction. Will post a better version if you like it (just look at this as a sketch ;D)

That should be straight forward for someone with good photoshop skills or whatever..

Hi,

Dont end this too quick. I will give it a try.

Will post in an hour or two.

Thanks,
Augustas

It took me quite a while until I realized that there isn't a guy who plays golf on this!

Are you for real?;]

I'm checking this thread just for the lols :D

That's not where I got the design from, the original image is royalty free so stick that in your pipe and smoke it :)

BTW I know you're the sockpuppet for Jantenner91, the notorious graphic river template king :) You've obviously had a lot of practice googling images.

EDIT: Actually it's Jantenner81, you can see all his 'designs' here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=249457.0

Whos Jantenner91? Im sorry I dont follow if this is kind of bite-joke?

Yet, about googling. Images> Spartan Vector  4th-5 line. I was only checking that because It was too obvious that noone would come up that fast with a(decent) full spartan vector, and I just had to show that,because I am tired of people getting away with using images/vectors of not theirs in contests and(in my past experiences in contests) winning, which they did not deserve to in the first place.

oh my goodness, some shockers here sorry, guys i have made it heaps easy for you, please see my message in this thread above.


I will edit op with this info for future contestants.
I will extend this contest for another 24 hrs to be fair to everyone however rosinpl has come closest to what i want


what can be done with this image, the bitcoin logo to be just in the background of the temple. in other words i want the tip of the temple covering say just 10% of the bottom of the logo a small portion. Position it at 1:00 not directly above the temple maybe. And my fault for saying i want it resembling a sun, just get rid of the overspray around the logo so its a clean shape. Also would like to see with this kind of logo too if it isnt too much trouble : http://i2.wp.com/worldwidenews.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Bitcoin_Digital_Currency_Logo.png

I get what you want, the bitcoin logo as a sunrise, the Parthenon and a spartan knight kneeling in front of the sun.
I could do this, but it is not a 1 day job and certainly not a 50$ job.

I dont mean to offend, you are probably good at what you do, but what I want is simple and there are users on this forum that are prepared to work with the $50 bountyI have offered. I have a newbie working on it via private messages and he seems to be doing quite well with it. I will have him post it in here once finished. Its a quick edit for someone that knows what they are doing. Itll work out im sure ill be happy with a $50 logo :)

I just hope you don't get in trouble for using a registered trademark or other person's work without the proper license.
Do you research on it before accepting any logo. I'm not going to participate because of the reasons I stated, but I wish you good luck finding a good logo.
Search for spartan on shutterstock, vector.me, etc and if you find a similar asset used on the logo you think is the best, check if it is royalty free or ask the designer if he bought the asset (otherwise you could get in serious complications afterwards, specially if you are using it as your company's logo).

I understand your concern and as for now this is not a company logo as per say but thank you for pointing that out, I get what you say and I have thought of this myself too. If I do intend to pursue this as a business venture as in a privately owned company then I will look into that further and pay royalty where royalty is due. However for now it is simply a theme for my mining facility and to be used to identify me and my operation on this forum

A shiny penny! Thank you sir, you are too kind.

lol nice logo John

This! Gentlemen, for those of you that said this logo can not be designed for $50... It just did :)
Absolute pleasure dealing with this man and I'm very happy with the design.

Sure it must have said contest over while I was doing this  ;D anyhow it's not quite what you had in mind.
