** Mobiledudes Logo Contest! **


Question

Prize: $100.00 USD for logo.

Payment Methods(s): Paypal, Check

-----------------------

Description:

We will soon be re-launching an new version of our site www.mobiledudes.com

We have decided that now is the time to get a logo that truly represents who we are.

As you may have already realized from the name of the site, our aim is to offer our customers with a range of mobile phones, accessories, and in the future a range of products that are mobile, i.e. iPods, Notebooks, PDA’s etc.. We would like our logo to portray a professional image, not something goofy or cartoon-ish. We are also laid back and can have fun.

While we would prefer if you could follow the criteria above, we aren’t going to limit ourselves until we see what you guys are capable of. I have seen some great work here at Yaxay and would like you to use your own experience and opinions when coming up with entries. I will be able to check in several times a day to offer my opinions and input on the entries.

For the logo format, we must have it in some sort of resizable format (most likely vector) that we can resize and use not only for the website, but on business cards, t-shirts, public banners, etc.

To clarify the logo:

We would like to see the logo with our slogan and without it/ we would also like to see it with the “.com” and without. This logo should be from scratch. For the title text, keep in mind that "mobiledudes" or "mobiledudes.com" should have no spaces between the words. Putting the words on separate lines should be fine if it fits the logo, but if the words are side by side, no spaces. Thanks :-)

Also, if you are going to use the initials of the name in the logo, please use "MD"

To clarify the prize:

We pay $100 for whichever logo wins, period.

To clarify logo originality:

This should be fairly obvious for any logo contest, the logo should be your original creative work. No clipart or purchased graphic should be used, and especially not claimed as your own work. If you have any questions as to whether or not you can use a pre-made graphic as the logo, the answer will almost undoubtedly be 'no' but feel free to contact me with any concerns.

As for stock photographs to be used with the logo, the answer is no as they do not comply with the previous rules requiring scalability of the logo.

btw, i know i'm a reflection ###### :p

I'm going to try a black sleek kinda style later on, but really, if you dont like it please tell me so i wont waste my time...

i like it Chema, thanks for stayin in the ring, i would love to see it with the black sleek idea you have

im thinking of going with a Black and White simple Modern Website, so maybe that sleek idea will fit well. :)

hmmm... had a fiddle, got an idea, made a font :p

how's this? any suggestions?

Pox i like it, but i dont think you quite understand what my company is after....

i would want something that without the text can be understood, like the mini cellphone that Chema has next to the font, can be put on our letter head, etc... and people will know what it represents,

Mac has an apple, Windows has a flag, Mercedes has there star, Cingular has there little orange dude, T-Mobile has there funky T with the dots, Neowin has there "N" i could go on and on, this and the text is what im looking for, a logo, something to Represent our company.

hmm, yeah. Well the top MD version could be used by itself, although i see what you're talking about. I'll see if i can come up with anything.

honestly, the logos with a mobile phone in them are kind of tacky, but it all depends on the artist and the creation, it can be done in a way that doesn't look cheap.

i am looking for something maybe a little more abstract, so that when customers see the logo without the mobiledudes text, they automatically recodnize that its MobileDudes.

like when i see that little Cingular Orange Guy, I Automatically know that its Cingular, i dont need to see the text to know that, same thing with the MS Windows Flag, i just need to see it to know.

**Thats the goal to Achieve with this logo, something that when you see it you just know its MOBILEDUDES**

If you think you're going to get that kind of a brand for $100, you are out of your mind. :p

The Apple and MS Windows are only recognisable because they are big companies.

Also to make a customer recognise your logo you are going to have to display it alot. And I mean put it every where, all over your shop, on every page of your website, every letter, every order form etc..To see what Im talking about, go have a look in a Telstra shop. :rolleyes:

Advertising is the key to getting people to recognise your logo not the amazingness of it.

Anyways...Here are some more logos I did:

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
