View Full Version : "Create the TB Logo" Competition!

Hello and welcome to our very special "Create the TB Logo" Competition! :D
Now as you all remember, Talk Budgie's Next Top Model finished a few weeks ago, and we promised you guys that the top three budgies would be featured in a brand new logo for Talk Budgies! :thumbsup:
The only part we didn't mention, was that we'd give YOU the chance to design the logo! :D
This competition is particularly special as the winning logo designer will have their logo featured on a brand new skin for the forum, as well as 50 karma points! :D
So for all you budding siggy makers and photoshop lovers, this competition is definately for you!
RULES:
- Must be in png format.
- Must have a transparent background.
- Height no greater than 200 pixels.
- Must feature the winner of TBNTM (Jencelena's Firecracker) as the middle budgie, with Kim's Phoenix, and Stacey's Chibi Chibi on either side.
You can use any image of Firecracker, Phoenix and Chibi Chibi that you'd like to create your logo :)
Perhaps you'd like to have Firecracker a little larger than the other two, or maybe you'd like to keep them all the same size, the option is up to you :thumbsup:
As mentioned previously, the brand-new logo will be featured on a new skin! To help you guys with your logos, here's a sneak peek (http://talkbudgies.com/images/misc/logoarea.png)of what the new skin will look like :D
You all have three weeks to send your logos in to me :) Once the three weeks is up, I will create another thread, where the entire TB community (including staff) will be able to vote for their favourite logo! :D

Brandon's done some digging and pulled out some threads with pictures of the birds that you may wish to use:

Thats great, sounds fun :)
I might try, but I have no software to cut out things well (or other things ;))
Goodluck to anyone who enters!
Just to make it more clear, here is where the logo will go on the new skin. Make sure your logo matches the skin (colors, etc.):

I understand that the maximum height should be 200. What should the maximum width be?
Well since it's a fluid skin (like the red skin, it takes up your whole screen), there doesn't need to be a "maximum" width. If you're using the current default skin (version 2), the width of that logo would probably be as wide as I'd go.

Thank you. :)
And remember to make it on a transparent background so the gradient on the page shows up behind it! Save it as a png.
Also, for anyone who enters, please save your PSD file if you used Photoshop so I can access the editable version of the logo should the need arise!

When you save your picture in Paint Shop Pro or whatever software you are using, there is an option as to what file type i.e. jpeg, bmp, png, etc.

It's not dumb, I had to ask at one time, now I remember.
I use the red skin all the time. Look at the bottom of the page, left corner, drop-down menu, you can change the skins. :)

I think it would make it easier for the members who want to enter, if the best photos of the three budgies were posted in one thread. I find it difficult to search all over the board looking for photos. Does anyone else agree with this? :S

I can post some pictures of my little Phoenix in this thread if you guys would find it helpful. I am sure the other two members wouldn't mind doing that as well.
Alternatively (or in addition to that), have a look in my gallery:
http://talkbudgies.com/photoplog/index.php?u=23
(I believe I have identified in all my photos who the budgies are... The photos in there have been resized, so if you need a better quality one, feel free to let me know and I will see if I can find you a higher resolution one to work with.)

And I would assume that if you are artistic enough to DRAW the budgies, that would work too. We hadn't discussed that for this competition so I hope to get some input from other staff before I can confirm this. ;)

Yes, if you feel you can draw a nice version of the winners, feel free. :D
We're also in the process of creating a sticky with the photos of the winners. In the mean time, you can use Brandon's post (http://talkbudgies.com/showpost.php?p=579643&postcount=37) above.

I like this idea :) Let's take a vote in the Junior Staff Area and see if we all agree :)
I can't wait to see your logos everyone! :D I'm sure they are coming along quite nicely! :) Remember, it isn't too late to start your logo! :thumbsup: We still have over two weeks left before the deadline! ;)
Members can enter more than once if they so choose. You aren't required to put in more than one entry, but if you come up with more than one design you like you can enter them all! Since the winning logo is going to be put on the new default skin, it needs to be good. ;) By allowing more than one entry, we have a better chance of getting a good (great) design.

I explained this to Kerem over PM, but he didn't know which one was Firecracker, and I went to bed and woke up to a few PMs waiting for me :)
Kerem, I'll leave your logos up there, but can you send me updated logos with Firecracker (the green budgie) in the middle so I can replace them? As for canman, I've tried to get in contact with him but have had no reply from my PMs. If he does not update his logo by the competition deadline in about two weeks, then his logo will be disqualified :)

In the first and second one you have Phoenix in the middle, Chibi Chibi on the right and the left is an unknown budgie to me.
The third logo is perfect. You have the correct budgies in it and it looks great. Good job.

I would love to, but it took so long for me to draw the budgies for the book club logo and I'm leaving in a few days for vacation, so I don't think I'd be able to get it done in time. :( It would be a lot of fun to attempt though :p

It stated on the rules:
- Must feature the winner of TBNTM (Jencelena's Firecracker) as the middle budgie, with Kim's Phoenix, and Stacey's Chibi Chibi on either side.
BUT you are right from a design standpoint.
Edit: well I know yoou just had a post here asking why! Not I don't see it, am I crazy!?

EDIT: Phew! :eek: Ok, I think I am up to scratch with everything again :p It's amazing what happens in a few hours :p
I've put all the logos which were posted here on the thread up on the first page :thumbsup: If, for what any reason you wish for me to take it down or if I have put your logo under the wrong name, just let me know and I'll change it straight away :)
Next to a few logos I've put "awaiting updated logos". If that is your name, then there is an issue with your logo :) Almost everyone's has been fixed, but there are one or two more :)
I'm also loving the idea of you guys drawing a logo! :D Brandon's one is fantastic! Can't wait to see a few more ;)
If you have any questions, or you would like to send me your logo to upload, please message me :) We've got 17 amazing logos up there already, and I'm sure we'll get a few more. Still around two weeks to go everyone! :thumbsup:
