Looking For Your Help

[Dave]

Hello everyone. To make our "network" of websites more cohesive, I'm in the process of creating new styles for TP and TC that are based off of TB's v3 skin. For the most part they're complete, but I'm in need of logos that mesh well with the rest of the site.

I'm looking for someone to design me a logo for each site that fits in with the color scheme of the respective site. A preview image of each site is attached so you can get an idea of the color scheme. (Yes, I'm aware that all of TB's links are on those sites right now. :P)

As a reward, I will offer a free 1-year subscription. If you're already a subscriber, this will get added on to your current subscription. If you choose to do this work pro bono, you can gift the 1-year subscription to a friend. :)

Please note that this is not a contest. Serious applicants only. Send all logo designs to webmaster@talkbudgies.com.

Thanks,

Is it open to everyone and is there a deadline?

[Dave]

It's open to whoever wants to have a shot. :) There is no deadline. This isn't an urgent project. If you (or anyone) happens to come up with a good idea, make it up and send it to me. :thumbsup:

[aka.pody]

Alrighty then. :)

Oh I would love to be I am no good at this sort of thing :( Hope someone can make you a great one :)

I might give it a try... though im not the best :giggle:

I dont own a parrotlet or a cockatiel so i dont have any photos of them, do you have any photos that i could use on the logos? Maybe you could ask on the other forums if people want their birds as possible stars? ;) They'd have to be nice clear images of the birds. This could help others making logos too? :)

I could give you a picture of a cockatiel if you wanted?

[LiaH]

I might try this:)

[apolline]

I'm going to try this tonight.

[LiaH]

Okay Dave, I'm making one and it is coming along really well. Do you still need the cockatiel title? Sorry it's taking so long, I want to get permission from people to use their photos, and it's taking a while.

[Dave]

Yes you can make one if you want. :) Just e-mail it to me when you're done: webmaster at talkbudgies dot com.

[LiaH]

Great:) I'll try to finish it today. Should the background be solid or transparent?

[Dave]

Transparent would be best (in png format if possible). And if you made it in Photoshop, the PSD would be nice too. :)

[LiaH]

I emailed you;) Will resizing be a problem? It is too bis as it is.

[Dave]

I emailed you;) Will resizing be a problem? It is too bis as it is.
That's one reason why I like to have the psd's. :) I actually prefer when designs are larger than they need to be. It's easier to shrink them than to expand them and make them look good. :)


I'm still waiting on a few other people to get me their logos. Once that happens I'll compare all of them and pick the one I think will fit best. As a thanks to everyone who took time out to design a logo, I'll give everyone whose logo didn't get picked a 6-month subscription if you want. :)

[LiaH]

Okay, cool.:) Has anyone else submitted any? And will we get to see them? I'm glad the size thing worked out. I hope you like it.:)

dave i forgot to put my forum username when i emailed you will that matter :o :S

[VickyLouise]

I love the idea of seeing all of the logo's people have made! I bet they are all really good :D

[BudgieLover27]

But, I like it the way it IS...

The logos aren't for TB they are for TC (Talk Cockatiels) and TP (Talk Parrotlets) ;)

I knew who it was. :) Thanks.

:iagree: That would be cool.

[Ryan Campbell]

i just remembered i used my real name for TB so it's all good :D lol (my name shows up on the email)

[trace2]

Hi, this is "trace" from Talk Cockatiels. I'm planning on entering a logo or two for TC, and I will get them in by the end of the day. (:

[BudgieLover27]

I know, lol, I am ON TalkParrotlets :P

[Tulip]

Can someone confirm that this is still needed before I put hard work into something that won't be looked at?

[Dave]

Yes you can still submit a logo. The release of the new designs has been put on hold for now as real life takes over. But once I get more free time I'll resume working on this.

[LiaH]

Is this still going to happen? Is there anything else we could do? Just curious.:)
