ESB:Contests/ESB Logo

	Contest Archive The following contest is complete. The page has been protected and now serves as an archive. Do not edit this page. Date completed: April 12, 2014 Result: Contest ends. AW10's idea passes contest stage. Logo design moves to final discussion.

The final round of "Rename the Wiki" is currently underway, due to end on April 5, 2014. Click here to view and participate in that discussion. Due the overwhelming support for renaming the wiki to "Encyclopedia SpongeBobia," I anticipate that the final round will pass with ease. Therefore, in order to be ready for the official date of renaming (the wiki's 7th anniversary, April 25, 2014), we will hold a logo contest.

Contest

All are welcome and encouraged to participate. We will accept all logo ideas, concepts, and designs for submission. This includes ideas, especially if you are unable to do the design yourself. Please upload them to the wiki and link them on this page under your entry. Each entry will have their own section on this page. Below your entry, the community will discuss all concepts, with their support, oppose, or neutral opinion.

The contest will end on April 12, 2014 at midnight, eastern standard time. From there, the administration will take all ideas and concepts to develop the final logo. The administration may alter the logo as they see fit, from quality control, to design techniques, and dimensions of the image(s). Also, there might be the case of combining two or more different ideas into one logo concept.

Perhaps we could use the font from my design and combine it with the background behind "Encyclopedia SpongeBobia" on your design. — AMK152 14:10, March 25, 2014 (UTC)
Perhaps even put the characters closer together (like them standing in a group) and include Sandy (which would cover the 7 main characters). — AMK152 14:10, March 25, 2014 (UTC)

Actually, my font fits much better than yours, since the font you use seems "deformed" and my is "stable" and still looks Spongish [2]. AW10 Talk Contribs E-Mail 16:27,3/25/2014
I have added Sandy. AW10 Talk Contribs E-Mail 18:49,3/25/2014

Perhaps the text is too small for me to see the font. Any chance it could be larger? — AMK152 01:35, March 26, 2014 (UTC)
I was thinking we could have a rather large logo on the homepage. — AMK152 01:36, March 26, 2014 (UTC)

I will not touch the logo nor wiki-wordmark in any way, but I have created something to replace slider. [3] AW10 Talk Contribs E-Mail 07:50,3/26/2014
Also, note that the ESB logo in the welcome box links to the Wiki History which is under construction. AW10 Talk Contribs E-Mail 08:12,3/26/2014

Ah, that looks good. I can see the font better. I just want people to be able to read the name on the logo. — AMK152 15:03, March 26, 2014 (UTC)
Also, I added more to the history, but it still needs more work from other perspectives. — AMK152 15:49, March 26, 2014 (UTC)

I have changed the text-color of the "Encyclopedia" on the logo and on the wiki-wordmark and also left some black dots around the letters in small logo. This is the maximum level of readability I can reach for now. AW10 Talk Contribs E-Mail 17:37,3/26/2014
I have also increased the distance between the characters and the logo in the wiki-wordmark. AW10 Talk Contribs E-Mail 17:55,3/26/2014
