Third time is a charm eh folks? I've got the funding, I've got the people, now I just need the logo!
HostFalcon.com, an internet service provider specializing in small business site hosting, has commissioned a contest to create a new and unique branding for their soon be opened business.
The winning logo will help set the tone for the layout, color and theme for the rest of the company web presence.
The contest will run for an undetermined length of time and participants from around the Internet community are encouraged to enter.
First prize is $40 AND 6 months of free hosting on a basic HostFalcon plan. Two runners up will receive 25% off any plan for three months.
Winners will be decided exclusively by the management of HostFalcon.
Requirements
The name of the company (HostFalcon) should be present on any logo design along with our slogan (Set your sites higher) if deemed feasible by the designer.
The branding elements should be on a white background and be easily applied to any white or light gray without recoloring. Any text used should be a sans-serif font. HostFalcon prefers the use of a simple and minimalist design.
Only Photoshop importable formats will be accepted.
Uses
The winning branding will be used on our website, in online and possible print advertisements, letter headers, company shirts, business cards, etc.
Exclusive rights must be provided to us by the author.
The following issues have come up through the thread.
- A cash prize has been added.
- You can submit as many variations or alternative designs as you wish.
- Please keep the negitive comments on other peoples work to yourself.
- Please do not ask for public feedback from me on your submission.
APRIL 3 UPDATE: The entry process is now closed. Unless you come up with something breathtaking we're going to use what we've taken so far and make a choice from there. We have narrowed the field down to about 5 logos that stand out from the rest as being the type of branding we'd be able to use and would help set us apart a bit from our competitors.
I have no timeline on getting a winner announced. Of course I'll let everyone know when that happens.
Thanks everyone for the great submissions, you've made it really hard for the judges to choose a winner.
This 4K webcam from Acer is now only $59.99 by Taras Buria
Those looking for an affordable, high-resolution webcam from a reputable manufacturer can check out the latest deal from Acer, which puts its 4K webcam at a solid price. Thanks to a 14% discount, you can buy this all-metal 4K webcam from Acer for just $59.99.
Despite the affordable price tag, the webcam has a pretty large 1/2" CMOS sensor manufactured by Sony. Apart from its size, it supports additional conveniences, such as high dynamic range and phase-detection autofocus (PDAF). Plus, the camera ensures you do not have to buy additional audio equipment, as it comes with two built-in high-sensitivity microphones, a built-in background noise filter, and the ability to pick up your voice from up to 2.5 meters away.
Acer is not cheaping out on materials, and the webcam is enclosed in a more premium metal case, which is also good at heat dissipation (high-resolution cameras can get quite hot). And to make sure no one is peeping at you when the camera is in use, there is a magnetic cover also made of metal.
Additional conveniences include an LED status indicator and a built-in mount that lets you place a camera on a tripod.

Stop reporting AR glasses as an X inch screen, Y distance away. That is a horseshit meaningless spec. Report on the actual FOV angle. That's all that matters.
And for the record, this FOV is ~49degrees. So we're talking about HoloLens level FOV... i.e. it's like looking through a piece of paper at arm's length.
