Need your input! Logo contest for the Fret?

[luvmyshiner]

Sorry guys, didn't mean to offend anyone. I guess I'm just a simple man with simple views. If Mr. Rizzo feels the idea lacks merit, he doesn't have to contribute. If he doesn't like receiving the emails, I'm sure Robert can remove him from the list.

But for someone who has never posted a contribution to this forum to post for no reason other than to tell us we're supporting the "dumbest idea" he's ever heard of, is not only disrespectful, it's rude and trollish.

But I'll play nice now, ummm-kay?

[ibanezjunkie]

id say a few things, but Pes, Shiner and Rocket have beaten me to them.

btw, its a competition, $400 is the prize for the winner who creates the winning logo, right?

just making sure Rizzo and myself understood that.

[Robert****]

Ibanezjunkie, that is correct.

[kiteman]

Like I said before, let the fun begin.

just had a look at the 99Designs website

some good stuff/logos crop up on there.

Man, that's a busy place. Going to be interesting. :

[ibanezjunkie]

the $400 prize is bigger than alot of what i looked at, should mean we get more and better designs when the comp goes active.

[kiteman]

Yep, it will attract better designers. Money talks.

[ibanezjunkie]

now all we need is 10 more people to donate $10 each and we can get this thing rolling.

Just an FYI: Just realized that due to the holiday, mine will take a day or two longer to get to you. I would think by Thursday or Friday it should arrive.

does anyone know if paypal is just as fast overseas as it is within your own country?

im pretty sure my donation is in Canada by now anyway.

I don't know but I just paypal'd $20 from the US, it should be getting pretty close to the goal. Thanks to Rock Mumbles for mentioning this campaign...

[piebaldpython***]

My donation will be PayPal'd no later than Tuesday.

[ibanezjunkie]

oo only $80 left to go.

I'd like to state that I'm personally proud that greater than 1/3 of the donate list is from the prior Washburn Acoustic Guitar forum gang... that's quite a statement from good folks always willing to pitch in and participate.

My thoughts for a guitar raffle would be to allot 1-chance per each $10 donation to insure fairness of opportunity equal to donation amount. Those that donate $20 will have 2-chances, $30 3-chances, etc. As soon as I work out raffle details, I'll post them into a thread devoted to that.
I'm keeping close watch on donation list but I'd have to get amounts from Robert when donation period ends, whenever that is.
(Maybe Robert can post a firm stop date on this particular contribution effort... maybe end-of-month?)

Feel free to PM me and offer any further helpful thoughts or suggestions on the subject.

Maybe they want to make sure the logo has a Washburn in it.


The guitar raffle is a very cool move on your part Rocket.

I donated money several days ago, but the banner stating the number of contributers & money raised hasn't gone up yet.

And we are all good looking.
