Design Help, Win $25!
 

Hey folks, I'm posting this in the Lounge, and OOT...figured it would be the 2 most appropriate forums. If not, mods feel free to move to where you see fit.

Here's the deal. Recently, I have started a business. I have acquired my Coin Operated Amusement Device license, and I'll be stocking local bars with things such as pool tables, dart boards, jukeboxes, and most importantly, video poker machines.

I am interested in custom designing a business card and after a day or two of messing around with it, I have discovered yet another way in which I suck. Enter 2+2.

If you're a design guru, or just massively creative when it comes to such things, I'd be interested in seeing what you folks can do. I'll pay $25 on Stars to the designer of the card/logo I like best. I'm just looking for a business card design that is snazzy/non-boring without looking goofy. Make sense? Yeah, I didn't think so...add poor communication skills to my list of deficiencies. Anyway, the business name is "For Amusement Only". If you're interested in participating, thanks, and good luck.

Just checking. I moved this from the Lounge. It's not allowed, right?

No

IMHO, disallowing this is also protecting posters from themselves. Having someone design your company logo (etc) for you without a contract in place is a very, very bad idea.

Suppose henrix77 uses a logo designed by someone and then it turns out the creator plagiarized something or used a trademarked design?

Or suppose henrix77's company gets big, and several years down the road the creator says, "Hey, I designed your logo and now your company is big. You don't have anything saying you own the logo. I still own it and I want more money. Lots more money."

Namepros has a forum just for this type of thing. When I owned RRR I bought templates and logos like this and it worked out. Most of the artists were kids happy to make $20.

Yeah Namepros is awesome. I used them for 2 logos. Unfortunately they have moderated forums now that take forever to get submissions in.
