Contest Brief

I posted this in the project area but like the idea of the contest as well. The winner will not only receive the cash prize, but will potentially be awarded future projects if we work well together.

I used to do graphic/web design but haven't done it in years and the programs are all different now (and expensive!). I will work WITH you, not against you. I understand the design process and will help convey what I want and need as best I can to make your job easier.

I want a whimsical, cute but not too cartoonish type logo. Think children's books from 40 years ago. I've included a couple example images for inspiration. It should be multi-colour and have a clear, easily read font that can be resized larger and smaller without sacrificing legibility.

There should be three baby goat kids playing, they must look like nigerian dwarf goat kids (short hair, proper ear size/length, proper proportions)... so I suggest google images search 'nigerian dwarf kid' for ideas and specifics. I'd like each goat kid to be a different colour/pattern as you will see in the breed. Some have blue eyes, some have brown. They can be scampering/playing in the grass or sitting together looking cute.

I'd like the name 'Shenannygans' (I know it's spelled wrong, its a play on words as a goat mother is often called a nanny) in larger letters and 'Nigerian Dwarf Goats' in smaller text beneath. A rustic/farm type font for Shenannygans... or a cute styled one that matches design. Nigerian Dwarf Goats preferably in something block lettered and easily read.

This logo will be the basis for building my farm's brand. Preference given to someone familiar with north american farms and who speaks english for ease of working together.

Other requirements:
- vector based for rescaling
- multiple file formats available at completion of project
- clear, easily read fonts (I will ask for font names for continuity)
- permission for me to edit the image as I require for use on various projects (website, printed on materials, etc)

Can't wait to see what you guys come up with! Good luck!!!

  I couldn't agree more that it is your money and you pay for the design you like the most, and personally I don't care if others use images from the internet, BUT you overstepped the potential client/ customer relationship when you said my design looks bad because I stole an image from the internet and converted it to vector while that wasn't true and ignoring the proof. That is not feedback. Good day to you! P.S. I've never met gemeyin in my life.

  I said that is what it looked like to me. I did not say that is what you did. If your skin is this thin to commentary, the internet is going to be a rough journey for you. At any rate, I'm not discussing this further. Others were told the same thing and didn't pitch a fit over it. You showed your design process, great... you cleared your name of the accusation you felt was made for future prospective employers.

Entrants: I am getting frustrated with this process. If you wish feedback, I am happy to offer it. Please, if your entry is a mockup, label it as such, otherwise I am going to interpret it as a near finished version of your idea.

  Drama is not going to be tolerated. This was supposed to be a fun, simple exercise in hopes of finding a talented designer to work with on future projects.
