Default RadioReference.com Logo Contest -- Winner Receives a Pro-96 Scanner

Folks,

I consider myself a pretty good Web developer, but not a good design and creative person. Therefore, I am announcing the RadioReference.com Logo Design Contest !

As you can see at the top, the RadioReference.com is a fairly crude and, well, ugly logo. I'm looking for one of our members to design and develop a professional looking logo that accurately represents radioreference.com and the community. Each person's submitted logo will be voted on by the user community, and I'll have the final say over the logo contest winner.

The winner of the contest will receive an excellent condition PRO-96 Digital Trunktracking Scanner, with antenna, power supply, and instruction manual.

Here are the terms and conditions for the contest, please read them carefully.

1. The Logo MUST be 350 px x 75 px and cannot contain any animation.

2. Post your submission(s) to this thread as an image attachment.

3. The logo should be professional looking and easy to read.

4. Any submissions are the property of radioreference.com, and you forfeit all rights to any creations when submitting your entry.

I'll leave this thread open for approximately 10 DAYS to allow submissions to come in, then I will post another thread at the end of the 10 days to allow for the user community to vote for the winning entry.

Remember, post your submissions to this thread.

Good luck, and may the BEST LOGO WIN!

Warm regards,

Lindsay

I made 2 logos with the [Radioreference.com] and two different slogans underneath.
Then I made 2 logos just with [Radioreference] and two different slogans underneath.
I think the colours are pretty good to match it with the blue in the website and they where fun to make. Here they are!

Take care and may the best logo win!

Not bad if it was going to be bigger but for something this size the background is far too cluttered for the forground text.
