Contest Brief

Existing website at http://www.howtobeatthecasinos.com - basically a current blog site, it has good articles but it needs some design love. I thought first step would be to get a great logo for the website.

"How to Beat the Casinos" or "HowToBeatTheCasinos.com" both fine. Logo could incorporate casino elements like slot machines, roulette wheels, blackjack tables, craps dice, money (non specific currency etc). Basically, fun, glamour, excitement! Think Las Vegas, think of us (for online users).

English only please.

Plenty of design work available that will flow on naturally from this exercise - so looking forward to seeing your creativity!

      Could you make the diamond shape outline look more glamorous - e.g. with bulbs around it, like the true Las Vegas sign?

      It's a little small - can it be made bigger so the detail can be seen more clearly?

    OMG! with this guy again!!! Im going to let you in on a little secret... ALTERATION of A COPYRIGHT IMAGE for profitable distribution is a felony! If i was a copyright attorney i would sue him myself! David...either of those 2 designs, watch your back, or hire a GREAT copyright defense attorney.

      Just thinking, how would it look with some additional graphics worked in - e.g. a roulette wheel, blackjack cards (Ace and Jack)? That could be very cool

      This is better (number 13). How about trying the dice as the MAIN part of the image etc? E.g. something very different to the original? I'm looking for originality in the final design for the winner - anything too close to what other sites have won't win.

    I've started to give ratings to the designs coming in. I'm a fan of those designs that look nice and sharp, clean and crisp, and that could be used on website / business cards or whatever. If you're getting 3 stars or more, things are looking good. Entries that are very basic or have hard to read text on bold background colours etc get 1 star. These look like "clip art" which is something I am trying to avoid. If you've got 2 stars it means you're heading in the right direction - but you need to spell things right - e.g. How to Beat the CASINOS (not CASINO) - and your graphics need to be sharper and more professional / corporate. Hope this helps everyone! Keep the entries coming in. :-)
