I Want Your Creative Business Logo For Branding Series
I want that creative professionally crafted logo that you designed to brand your own business for this Logo Design Series. If you are a freelance designer, freelance developer or have your own fully fledged agency, all our welcome.
Self Promote your logo designs
See it as a means of self promotion in a somewhat obvious unsubtle manor. I’m doing it because I am really into logos, funnily enough, but really curious to know why you came up with the design you did. What motivated you, what inspired you, what reasons for choosing ‘that’ style over all the others you probably discarded.
You can catch up on all the previous submissions here:
Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6, Part 7, Part 8, Part 9, Part 10 and Part 11
- there are a terrific variety of logos being submitted. For my own logo I have created a version of the logo for the post, with a nice background for added impact within the post. But this is not how I usually use the logo, so what I need from you is the logo in format that you feel really best does the logo justice. If it looks better on a white background then send me it on a white background and vice versa. If the logo looks good on a graduated background then send that. I’m easy, however you feel best does the logo justice.
Don’t forget the logo description
Also just a few words on the logo, based what I wrote in the 2nd paragraph above. Any information that allows us to see the logo in a bigger picture. Feel free to write as much as you want, in my experience, readers really do enjoy reading the design and thought process.
Two to three paragraphs is usual, but some people have gone on for about 10 paragraphs. I feel the more the better, helps people understand who you are and what makes you tick. So don’t be concerned about writing too much.
Name and Occupation
Please supply your full name, business name and job title with full website URL. This will be the title for each logo submission. Such as this :
‘Graham Smith – ImJustCreative – Logo & Brand Identity Designer – http://imjustcreative.com’
Specifications for the logo file
- The image size needs to be a minimum of 470px wide, and 223px deep. Please look through the previous series of posts for ideas on cropping etc.
- Please supply me a JPEG with Maximum compression.
- Use following naming convention : ‘{yourbusinessname}-logo-design.jpg’. So mine would be ‘imjustcreative-logo-design.jpg’
Deadline
Man, I hate deadlines. So there isn’t one really. Sort of an ongoing series, so as and when.
Where to submit.
Please send me any images and text file to : imjustcreative (at) gmail (dot) com
Flickr Group Pool
I have recently started posting all previous submitted logo’s to a Flickr Pool called ‘Designers Brands & Logos‘ to further max the self promotion for you guys. Woop.
Looking to get as many as I can, so please do spread the word to any buddies you know that might not be on Twitter.

great way of going about laying out your request for an upcoming post. Next time I do another “group post” like this I will have to keep this in mind.
It would have saved me a headache had I just done a full length request like this. But oh well, live and learn right?
Also, what is the time frame on this? I currently don’t have a logo for myself, but would love to try and put one together for this post.
Thanks.
I am in! :)

Thanks everyone for submissions so far, please spread the word. I am happy to extend the deadline if need be, it’s no biggy at all.

yeha wanna join – hope 2 manage
Well, I’d love to submit an entry, but the only logo I really have designed is my own, being that I do not know much about the realm of design that is logos, I do not know if my design even meets the criteria, or if it would be a worthy submission/how it compares to industry standards….
(the website link i supplied refers to a post I did about my logo design)
