Logo Contest for buzztouch.com

Hi designers (and anyone else that wants to comment)... We need a logo. Always have. Time to settle it. We are looking for a professional logo and want to include you in the design process - if you're interested. The winning idea will become the buzztouch.com logo and will be seen by tons of folks from tons of places doing tons of neat things with mobile. If you're interested in submitting your idea(s)...do this.... 1) Create something awesome. Your concept may or may not use the existing "buzztouch" text you see in the header of this site - it's up to you. 2) Your concept will play nicely with the existing buzztouch.com color scheme. This is orange, black, and white. Orange is #FF8600. Black is #000000. White is #FFFFFF. We're hoping you knew that already. Additional colors in your concept are OK but the concept must play nicely with existing assets. It's likely that you'll stick with these three colors. 3) Your concept will work well in tiny places and LARGE places. 4) Your concept will focus on community, software, and mobile. Email your concepts as attachments to david 'at' buzztouch.com but DO NOT SHARE your ideas with others. We think it's better that you create something awesome on your own without the influence of the other seeing the other designs. Your email will be: To: david 'at' buzztouch.com Subject: Logo Design Contest Body: Please consider my idea for the buzztouch logo design contest. Please DO share my idea with others when the contest ends. OR Please DO NOT share my idea with others when the contest ends. My name and contact information is: Joe Designer [email protected] 123-234-3456 This contest will run for 15 days and the winner will be announced on Jan. 1 2013. Have fun and good luck! David

@LA likewise buddy, that said he starts off well but gets distracted easily. 'Oooh, there's some grain!', 'Ooh, there's MacApple shoulder, I'll poop on that!'

Well, since the contest runs for 15 days with the winner to be announced January 1st, I believe today/tomorrow would be the absolute latest, although I could be wrong.

Neat to see the submissions. We are still accepting designs through Monday at Midnight. This means you can use the weekend to tinker :-)

@Thomas: I think the new logo was the member badge? (I may be wrong, just a guess) Happy New Year! Jake

I've actually seen the logo list and none of them were truly great, I have to admit. As far as I'm aware, the member badges were done by a professional graphic guy (that's what David told me).
