New NazNet Logo Competition

[G R 'Scott' Cundiff]

Here's announcing a competition for designing a new NazNet logo to replace the NazNet DOT Com logo that is at the top of the NazNet pages.

Here's how to enter:

1. Design a new logo that is about 330x90 pixels
2. Post a response to this message and attach your submission to your message
3. On or about October 30 I will create a poll in which you can vote for your favorite Logo.
4. We will take the logos receiving the top 3 highest number of votes and have a run off between them.
5. I will leave it up to Dave McClung to come up with a suitable prize!

So...let the games begin!

[G R 'Scott' Cundiff]

Knowing that some of you just love the current logo (which I created by the way!) I am going to submit it for consideration, in case some want to vote to keep the old one!

Remember -- we aren't voting yet -- just making submissions. However, you are welcome to respond to the various posts and tell folks what you think about the submissions!

[Dave McClung]

I will provide a NazNet shirt, using the new logo, to the winner.

[Nate Swartzlander]

Scott,
Why does the pixel count have to be so small? I have something designed
but it gets very distorted and looses its quality when its that small.:fav18

[Cindi Hammons]

Try again.

Cindi, I like the logo in the lower right hand corner best, except it would be nice in the blue color of the one in the lower left had corner.

Good work.

Here we go again.

Crash????
So THAT'S where my avatar and profile picture, along with intoduction went.
I have reposted that.
:basic04

[Cindi Hammons]

I re-did a couple of them. The color on the last one is off and for some reason, it looks "thicker." I don't know.

Cindi, While I kinda like the last one (NazNet 10.bmp), I like the font on #9.
#10 IS a bit on the "bold" side.

BTW, what font are you using on #'s 8 & 9?

Good evening,

The font on #8 and #9 is called "monotype corsiva." The type came from Print Shop. I resized them in Photoshop.

Posting this again: 2 familiar designs and something completely different.

plus a couple of new variations. I see Cindi really likes the globe idea! :basic03 I've been working on that some. I didn't really like the globe that I used at first so I found one on the web, but I have no idea if it is copyrighted. I'm working on one of my own, plus some more ideas, but probably won't have them ready before the poll is set up.

The first one is my original idea. The next two are different color schemes from that same one and with a transparent background. Actually, the ones I'm posting do have a background which is the same color as the default background against which the current logo is displayed so you can get an idea of the way it would look. Changing the main color is really easy. Haven't tried to change the blue outline, but it wouldn't be too difficult, either. The final one is a totally different font--transparent background, same as above. Again, colors are easily changed. If anyone wants to see other colors, just let me know.

Oh, these are all larger than Scott suggested also. Easily resized.

3. On or about October 30 I will create a poll in which you can vote for your favorite Logo.


I guess we're in the "about" phase now, huh? :basic05 But, we're still missing some of the artwork that was originally posted. Was it Nate that posted the PDF? That one was kinda cool. Very different. I'm sure there are some others missing, too. I thought there were several more than are currently posted. :fav03

Come on, everyone! Repost your submissions! Let's get this competition rolling! :fav18

[G R 'Scott' Cundiff]

Betty, you must have ESP or something. About 5 minutes before I saw this message I remembered that we were going to let people start voting. I just emailed Nate and asked him if he would re-submit his designs. Let's give him time to do to so, then we will start the polling!

Thanks for the reminder.

I like naznet1small the best of the two. They are both good.

Betty,

I really did like the globe idea and shamelessly swiped it! Ha! I think it says a couple of things. First of all, we are somewhat global. Secondly, as a church we are also global as Nazarenes.

I just like it.

Cindi H.

[Terri Knoll]

I know since the crash that yours is not here! I'd hate to see yours left out of the competition, all of them are great, but where is yours?

Actually, Cindi, the fact that you liked it so well you swiped it is a form of flattery! But, credit must be given where credit is due. I swiped the globe idea from Mark! LOL I just used it in a different way. :fav18

I had asked when I originally posted if anyone could figure out what else I had done to the logo, but no one ever replied. I turned the "t" of NazNet into a cross! It was not that way originally in the font. I wanted to show that, not only are we global, but that we are Christian. Maybe I didn't succeed very well. It's pretty subtle! :smilies16

[Betty Bolerjack]

Hey, Scott!

Guess my ESP was working pretty well this morning! I'm glad you e-mailed Nate to repost his and gave him time to do so. Of course, that makes some difficult decisions even more difficult! :fav03

[Nate Swartzlander]

i've have one more to post, i'll post it in the morning.

[Garth Lahana]

You can vote for the logo's on the main page of the new board. You can find my logo up there (#19 to be exact in group #3). :)

Very curious what the outcome will be... May the most loved logo win!

[Gina Stevenson]

that first one would be really cool with a globe substituted for the dot, because the lettering's neat.

But, also there's one that's light-weight in coloring [soothing-looking] that I really like with a dove with naznet ... wonder how just a light-colored globe would be added to that, a variation on an already really nice logo design??

Not that I don't like some of the others, but ... should I really even post this!? But I was thinking a globe might help the nice curvy logo out ?? :basic03

[Charlene Clevenger]

I just noticed the updated logo with the dove. Is it new, or am I a poor observer?

[Dennis M. Scott]

I've been away for a couple weeks, but I just noticed it now, too. Thanks, for the dove.

[Alex Manly]

It has just been updated within the last few hours.

I like the new format but (and I'm sure I'm just pointing out the obvious but it's late and you've decided to deal with it tomorrow) it needs cleaning up. The lines are very rough, I'm assuming due to the background.

[G R 'Scott' Cundiff]

I tried a .gif version of the new dove logo (Nate's design) but the .gif just didn't look sharp enough, so I just updated it with a .jpg -- looks sharper but only a white background.

[Charlene Clevenger]

It looks much, much better on a white background...and I use the default style background.

[G R 'Scott' Cundiff]

Nice logos Adam, but, alas, you are too late. We had two rounds of voting and finished up with two very popular efforts. The new logo is a combination of the two.

Is it tool late for me to submit a few ideas?

[Adam Spriggs]

I know. I shouldn't have even posted them.

[Jeremy D. Scott]

Does anyone have a transparent-color file (.png) of the Naznet logo?

[Greg Farra]

The old one was fine. Why change?

(sorry, couldn't resist!) :basic05

I guess we are Nazarenes. Nazarenes are all about change this century.
I don't know what new logo won, but I did like the idea of a small globe being used as the dot.

Main page of the new board? I can't seem to find this.

Susan, this is a really old thread. The logo that was chosen is the current NazNet logo.

Wow, I guess I just thought that if it newly appeared on my screen with an unread posts section that this meant it was a new thread. I guess I should try looking at the date first ;)

Don't feel bad I was sitting here trying to figure out the whole thing myself. I started reading and then next thing I knew the contest had been closed and then the voting was already over with and it all had me :confused: and then I too looked at the date and then I felt much better. :D

The current logo won. 3 years ago or more. My son Nate designed it.

[Gary Swartzlander]

I think Nate can probably do that for you. I'll pass this along to him.

[Dave McClung]

Nate did a good job. There is nothing wrong with the current logo. Why change it? :)

[Gina Stevenson]

Yes, it is a good one ... a great one; really do like it. ;)

We have a logo?
