I appreciate that she included several variations of the logo, and bonus points for the hair!

Let me know what you think, and as always, please be constructive.

Thanks!

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you “Pimpin’ Pop Culture,” courtesy of Nick H:

Wow. My face hurts from laughing and smiling. Bonus points for the use of both Garden State and The X-Files in the montage.

Thoughts?

And now, for your viewing pleasure, I’d like to offer up the very first logos to be submitted. Thanks to Josh B for these two entries!

1. [Josh did his homework; the object beneath this logo is called a Panopticon. It is a nod to Lost and my Jeremy Bentham side project. Note: although Josh earns personal bonus points in my book for the inclusion,  Lost-related icons are not necessary on the logo for this site.]

2.

I would love your feedback. Feel free to leave comments, but please be polite and constructive.

As soon as other designs arrive, I will post those as well.

Thanks for playing!

That is the surprising response I’ve had about the opportunity to win 3 seasons of your favorite show on DVD. Seriously, I have a $100 gift to GIVE AWAY to one lucky person in exchange for a simple logo design. Details here; the contest has been extended through August 31.

If you are planning to submit a logo, please drop me an email just to let me know.

Spread the word, people. We all know graphic designers and artists, and very few who’d turn down this kind of prize for what should be a relatively easy task.

Let’s make it more interesting. The person who designs my favorite new logo will receive THEIR CHOICE of 3 seasons of TV on DVD, a $100 iTunes gift card or $100 cash. There, flexibility. Options.

If granted permission, I would like to post each logo submission here for readers to comment on and choose their favorite. I will take that feedback into consideration when selecting the winner.

Recently I announced a contest to redesign the logo for this blog, and now I’m unveiling a brand new logo for my other site, Get LOST with JOpinionated.

Those of you who are fans of Lost may recognize the addition of the Bentham text to this logo, for good reason.

Even if you don’t watch the show, you have to appreciate that aesthetic. Special thanks to my friend Brian K for the awesome new design!

I must apologize. You are temporarily the ugly stepchild, although you do not have red hair.

I have a feeling that you’ll be quite busy next week when I attempt to blog live from San Diego.

Hang in there, frequent friend.

Jo
