Contest Brief

We need a logo with a mouse.

PLEASE READ BELOW VERY CAREFULLY OR YOU WILL MISS IMPORTANT DETAILS

Our name is Mouse Mechanic (or MouseMechanic) Our theme is your hometown local auto mechanic repair shop for websites.

Our Tagline is: Your Online Mechanic For Website Issues

We need a mouse full body with our name & Tagline (as described below) AND the mouse in a full size icon (as described below as well)

USE THE IMAGE IN THIS LINK AS A GUIDE AND INSPIRATION: http://www.ctclocal.com/images/MM/logo.jpg (If you use this as a reference, I even made his nose too long. But then I'm no artist)

A mouse full body with our name & Tagline:

ARTISTIC STYLE:
http://www.ctclocal.com/images/MM/I-like-this-style-of-mouse.jpg (Except for the fat rat tail and the nose should be shorter, cuter)

The Mouse:
1. Wearing a baseball cap style mechanics hat. Maybe Glasses.
2. He needs to be a blend of a mechanic and an IT professional.
3. Face expression: Happy to serve, smart and confident like he can handle any issue (but not too cocky).
4. Full Body pose Next to the M in Mouse. His posture, I was thinking something along the lines of This http://www.ctclocal.com/images/MM/logo.jpg

5. He's the kind of furry mouse cartoon that doesn't wear pants or shoes.

Also see the images below. Read descriptions and image file urls for greater detail.

Notice in this image how he has a "look" like a cross between a mechanic and an IT guy. Face expression: Happy to serve, smart and confident (but not too cocky). I also like the shirt in this image NOT overalls.

MOUSE IN FULL SIZE ICON AT THE END OF MouseMechanic

LIKE THIS: http://www.ctclocal.com/images/MM/This%20like-this-pose-and-county-worn-machanics-cap.jpg

The Mouse Mechanic in a round circle. (Understand that on the Icon part, we don't want the full body of the mouse. For the icon, we want about as much as you would see in the image below this description.)

Though not sure what to do with the hand holding the wrench. I pictured maybe the edge of a computer monitor like he's working on a website issue and did a quick pose for the camera.

UPDATE: I provided an image to help provide some clarity

    wow, WOW!!!! I never thought this was going to be this tough and competitive. I can't announce the winner until after we run the poll, but I can tell you who we are selecting for the poll. If you are not on this list but scored a 4 star, don't worry. We get graphic request as part of our business. It's more work than any one person can handle, so we will keep your contact for future projects. So here's the Freelancers we will be adding to the poll (In no articular order) Howthesun, MyPrints, NatallaFaLon & Aguirre2118 (Because your M hit me right in my Disney loving heart! -though just have to check with the lawyers about avoiding copyright issues.) FYI: We have not yet full decided which of your entries we will add to the poll just yet. We should make that decision and launch the poll in about 24 hours.

      I'm sorry. I had to reject your entries. Being inspired by other artist is one thing, swiping 100% is not tolerated. It's no secrete that the top entries have much in common. However, they still bring their interpretation of what we like and that's exactly what we were hoping for.

    It's really flattering that someone else do admire your work, I am very surprised that rizwankhan1 (#45) love my design like #28 and make an almost exact copy of that (except for the red "Mechanic". I don't feel mad at him but in fact I am happy with that, thank you my friend. (Why just copy any other when you can copy maybe one the best entry) :)

    UPDATE: We are going to wait to run the poll until the entry time has run down. We wanted to give you as much time as possible to enter or revise your entry. However, our goal is to only run 3... maaaaaaybe 4 entries. I can not WAIT to see how this ends. I'm so glad to have had the opportunity to receive your entries. You are true artists and I feel lucky and so appreciative of your efforts. I will almost certainly work with many of you of future projects. Again, THANK YOU!!!!

    Oh BTW, in case some of you were wondering about the circle and triangle, it's a double meaning of cheese, cuz mice like it, but it's really symbolic of a 15 minute segment of time.

    WOW, this is getting hard. I wish I could mash what I love about 4 logo's and split the money among you. But fear not if you don't win. We have a need for great logo artist and designers and will likely hire each of you directly in the future. So we are down to the last 16 hours. In about 10 hours we are going to launch a poll with 3 maybe 4 designs and let "the market" help us decide. (I say help, not MAKE our decision)

    WOW, I must say, there are some great entry's here. Let me ask you all, would you prefer I sum up feedback here or privately? I was thinking I would publicly discuss what I like about the qualifying entries verse what I don't like. If you would rather I do private messages, that's fine too. What ever I can do to help you please let me know.

      The 5 star entry appears to be a post to the wrong contest. I've sent support an emal. I don't want to make it no star or boot it because it may not let that person enter it in another contest.

      Thank you, best I could do in 5 minutes. I know this isn't easy as I am being pretty particular while at the same time looking to be WOW'd. That's why I posted this contest to illustrators. It appears by a number of responses that I may not have been explaining myself...or people are not reading my description carefully as suggested. I'm hoping to find a good artist out of this too as we will need the mouse redrawn in various positions for use on a website in future projects
