I want the AI and PSD file... also if you can come up with a good slogan I will pay. this is a site for SEO, custom computers, and more.

This is a website for people to come get answers from the "nerds" - any slogan with the image will warrant an increase in the prize.

Jen Design - your logo looks all distorted. so does every other logo except for ZoeGraffix so far, they all look "fuzzy"

@MasterJere Make sure you're running your mouse over the entries to bring them up to full size. Also, this site doesn't display jpg as clearly as it could, so if their entries are in jpg format, it's not the fault of the entry. Hope that helps.

Thanks Zoe that was a good heads up... We intend for this site to be like a "migration" of 2 IT websites... One that provides a service (kind of like geak squad) and one that provides nothing but "forum" support so to speak, thats why its called the "blurb" where people will come and chat about all IT related problems.... Also just to let the designers know - we intend to use Black, Blue, Red and a silverish type color when developing the website.

Do you know what Pantone shades of those colors you're using? Or even the hex codes would help.

Will the website have a dark or light background?

Oh yeah.... MasterJere, if you have just made a comment, the next time you refresh your comment will post again. The way to avoid this is to click out of the contest after every comment. This site needs a manual to work around the glitches...lol

Thank you EZoeGraffix. I'm new to this site. It's helpful to know which formats work best here.

Not sure yet Zoe - if I'll have a dark or light background, I'm more concerned with the logo and slogan. So far I like what I've seen in the first 2 days, I have a feeling you guys can really hit the one I'm looking for (yet I don't even know what I'm looking for yet lol)

The website we are building will be using photos of the 3d "bubble men" from http://us.fotolia.com/id/4598956 check it out to get some idea of how we will be building the website, maybe that will help with the logo images for "thenerdblurb"

Everyone, just to let you know, I liked rachoud's last post because of the colors of the text, but I didnt like the guy leaning on the text, but the colors I did like.... also were going to be using ALOT of Marshmellow looking men (http://us.fotolia.com/id/10056459) kind of like them on the website, if that helps you with the logo.... only 2 days left, whoever can incorporate a creative, professional, and humorous photo with a Marshmellow guy from Fotolia will probably win.

You DO realize that we cannot legally use that guy from Fotalia because he is another artist's creation and that artist possesses copyright, right?
