Topic: Peercoin Logo Design Contest Fundraising (Completed!) (Read 4679 times)
Also I can design this logo.
99designs is an awful. We really need to work on attracting the designers to the cryptocommunity rather than take advantage of spec crowdsourcing. There has to be a better way to find good designers.
Lol, you guys should have just hired me, check this out:

Nice to see my 8bit floating around
Is anyone working on a new website after the logo is finished?
We don't have anyone in particular yet, but several people have offered their help. I assume it would be much easier for them to design a website if they already have a finished logo to work off of. They would know which colors to incorporate and such.

Today I've been going around Facebook and ppcoin youtube videos and posting about this. Hopefully that will lead a couple people here.
Also, is there anyone here that can try posting a link to this thread on the ppcoin subreddit? Nothing I do works. My posts just don't show up and the moderators over there won't answer my replies. Can anyone help?

I like the design with the leaf too, but we should not limit the options to it. Perhaps it's too "elaborated" for a simple coin symbol.
In my opinion, the "leaf" imagery may be too gimmicky and not withstand the test of time.
I think you guys may be onto something. This is something I was thinking also, but never really mentioned it until now. Right now incorporating the leaf into the logo makes sense because we're trying to convey its eco-friendliness and energy efficiency compared to Bitcoin, but what about in the future?
What if Peercoin rises to the top in the end? At that point, would there be any reason to still have the leaf in the logo? Bitcoin may be outdated by then and there wouldn't be any more coins that are energy hogs. There wouldn't be a reason at that point to convey that it's eco-friendly, because that might be the norm. The logo wouldn't stand the test of time.
Removing the leaf would put the primary focus on the PP symbol and any messaging that could become outdated with time would be gone. Bitcoin and Litecoin followed this model. There's nothing in the designs that I can see of that could become outdated. The coin logos mainly focus on the B or L symbol without any other messaging that could lose its meaning over time. Maybe we should follow their lead.
Yes, this is my personal favorite of the ones proposed so far (now my avatar). In my opinion, the "leaf" imagery may be too gimmicky and not withstand the test of time. I donated to the design project and I'm satisfied with setting the goal lower at this time. I think it's really important to establish/standardize the "P" symbol as well. I like the 2 superimposed "P's" with the crossbar as in the above image as well.
Can anyone confirm that "Peer to Peer" is the original intention of "PP" or does it have some other significance to Sunny King? If there is more of a backstory, perhaps it should be taken into consideration in the future design.

Thanks! Yes, the gold one is also good.
It would be cool if you could add the designs without the leaf, like the green one:

Ok, I added the one you posted and the all gold one too.

Alright, after getting the ok from several others as well as some people who have already donated, I've officially changed the goal from $800 to $300. I also altered the text in the first post and the donation page to reflect the new focus.
Pay for my food and shopping. That's right do your own work kk
I already have a job, thanks. Maybe you should have read the note about trust in the first post before opening your mouth and assuming things about other people.

$800 just seems greedy. It's a logo, not a complete design package. $800 is expensive beyond sense.
Disclosure: I hold 'north' of 20k PPC
Edit: I for one really think the last 2 evolutions from the donation page are really nice.

Yeah, I'm starting to think maybe we should lower the money target to reach for the bronze package instead. I thought $800 would be no big deal if it was to get the best look possible, but I guess I was wrong. Now that I'm rethinking it though, the bronze package sounds more like what we need.
As you said yourself, the last couple designs are looking pretty good. They just need to be finalized. Maybe $800 would make a little more sense if we were starting the logo from scratch, but we're not. What we really need are some more and better quality variations of the current design to choose from, just to finish off what we started. That can probably be achieved for $299, plus it will be a lot easier to raise. What do you think?
Agreed. $299 or even $199 would be far easier to raise. In conjunction I would prob set up a donation address for marketplace, gambling site adoption and see if there is developers willing to incorporate logo and refresh the website.
