Gizmodo super battle

Zao - I think DDD just finds it hard that someone would donate a MP3 Player that they won on a kirupaforums battle to charity. I find it hard too.

No hard feelings though.

EDIT: Ah I see. I guess if you have another one it’s a good reason. But I thought charity needed more important things :)?

Well i’m sure some less fortunate individual would dig an mp3 player, I would have put some music on it first of course :slight_smile:

Final time this is a battle. Nothing more nothing less. Afriendly battle that happens to encompass the friendly folks from gizmodo. Gizmodo has stated that they are not going to use this logo at all. They were nice enough to donate a prize because they liked the idea. So normal battle rules apply. I will update the first post when necessary. If anyone has any troubles or problems PM me. Lets try to keep this post as uncluttered as possible.

Lol that is an amazing idea.

Put some 50 Cent on it :P!

( j/k, seriously :ne: )

Well, just one more thing, shouldn’t it be necessary to write a description for the logo?

description? You can include a small snippet if you like. no more than 100 characters.

We aren’t looking for a good logo… we are looking for the best out of the logos designed… just like any other battle.

disapointed to see all the negativity :confused:

I as well but I guess it is to be expected when things get out of hand nonetheless best of luck to all of the other contestants.

I have been to Kirupa many times before for flash tutorials, but I will freely admit that I am one of the migrants who wandered in from Gizmodo.

I assume things are a tad more civil in here without the extra people and attention. I have read every single post in both this and the old thread, and I would like to personally thank MutedLogic, Simplistik, and of course DDD for being so patient, helpful, and understanding through all of this.

Yes, thank you. You guys are awesome.

Are you guys gunna submit, or argue the whole time?

I anticipate that most will wait until the last second. Because there is a prize involved. I do apologize for the lag but I will have the battle page up shortly.

For those who are sending me their entries be sure to give me your screen name in the email. Most email addresses will not consist of your screen name. If you have already sent me yours. Please resend with your screen name.

Wait…so are you accepting all entries now? We’ve just had pages of arguing about the entry cap…wha?

Even if we did submit, you prolly won’t see any of them until the poll. I don’t think many ppl here will posting their entries here, instead most of us will probably just e-mail them to DDD.

Also you can submit your entries at anytime… DDD will just hold them until the poll. It’s your choice if you want to post it here or not.

Ok folks I have the battle display page up. Please send me your entries. And please do not forget to give me your screenname along with the email. Some of you have sent entries and have not included your screen name so I have no idea who you are. Also do not send entries unless you are one of the participants.

Here is the link

As I post your name I will change the color of your name displayed on this page. Please try not to make your image wider than 475 pixels.

Also gizmodo folks. Do you any of you know the link to the prize page? It seems to have changed. I would like to link to it from the battle page. Any questions? Feel free to let me know.

Hi guys, I’m a 15 year old kid who likes to do graphics design in spare time.

I’m a little pissed off, because I saw the gizmodo post, followed up the link and saw:

ENTRANTS STILL ACCEPTED

Open to ALL more the better

Entrants can join until end of July

Off I went to work on my logo (for quite some time!)

I then went to submit it and saw that the topic had moved and that there was now a limit to the number of entries that was already full (which had been overnight to me in the UK :()

I sent a very nice email to DDD and sent him two very nice PMs (I haven’t had a single reply, but I’ve had two PM ‘receipts’)

I think it would have been fairer if it were the first 25 peoppe to submit their designs rather than just type “I want in” or to just let anyone enter since this is just a friendly competition.

I therefore appeal to you, just for a chance to enter…

This is my design, I tried to follow a Japanese theme hence the red and the fairly subtle background motif.

Please let me join in :puzzled:

dude! first rule of posting picutres-WATERMARK BEFORE POSTING!

any guest [or member] can right-click “save picture as”. put ur name in big letters in the middle of the page or somthing. it’d be horrible if some1 stole it, and sent it in to gizmodo as their work.

thanks for looking out for me, I should have thought about that
