$150 Logo Contest : Band Logo!
 

ok, so I would like to see a new logo for my band. I designed the one we've been using myself and while I don't think it's bad, I'm not really a designer.

yes, we have a design department & our Logo Designer is awesome at corporate and many other design styles but he's not inspired to work on this project so far (he still may enter this contest though and I hope he does!)
I know there's tons of talented designers here so it would be cool to see a lot of submissions and variations! The band name is Keyhole - it is modern rock with some goth/industrial influence - the bands in our style also have logos with the right look, so do something similar!

Here's our current logo

- which I kind of like but I think doesn't flow enough and might be a little too complicated - probably putting the band name inside the keyhole shape is making it too busy and it won't be easy to duplicate on artwork, t-shirts, etc. If you want to incorporate the keyhole shape that would be awesome, but I'm sure there's a better way to do it...

here's other band logos that are cool

If I can see a stripped down B&W version for tees, etc and a more 3 dimensional glowing version for website and CD art that would be cool

Contest ends when I see something I like or one month from today, whichever comes first :)

just a quick implementation of an idea i had..

Good luck to those that enter....

Here's mine:

Keyh0le

Let me know if I win.

not bad - the little face / keyhole is a little bit too different from the lettering - maybe play with that some more

here's my contribution:

yea, yea - I'm liking this so far!

Wonder if it's still too busy tho

read my original guideline in reference to our current logo:

"which I kind of like but I think doesn't flow enough and might be a little too complicated - probably putting the band name inside the keyhole shape is making it too busy and it won't be easy to duplicate on artwork, t-shirts, etc. If you want to incorporate the keyhole shape that would be awesome, but I'm sure there's a better way to do it..."

- but right now this is still the one to beat :thumbsup

before getting a logo ,I would do a contest for a better band name:) Some very cool designs so far.

I love our band name - it's the shit - but thanks for your :2 cents:

here another entry :upsidedow

Heh, nice contest. I don't know who this guy is but if I were you, I'd commission him to do it. Seems he's got a good eye for what you're looking for...:2 cents:

Good luck :thumbsup

Thanks shey. :winkwink:

looking good man - I'm loving it - I'm gonna leave this contest open for at least a few more days, just to be fair - but right now I'm loving your style - great exposure for you as a designer too :thumbsup

not bad, dude

it looks cool by itself but it doesn't play well with others. I tried putting it in our album art and it just didn't vibe or flow right with anything else. :(

thx bro :thumbsup I will post a big announcement on GFY when the CD is done

HAHAHA:1orglaugh

Good luck to all!

goodluck to all designers....

bump bump

Good luck

worth a try :)

Thanks guys for the compliment.

Compliments like this really inspires designers to make more quality design for their clients. Just a simple "good job" means everything to us. :upsidedow

I love design contest threads, always such awesome talent posting their work. :thumbsup

pretty cool - might be better without the reversed L :thumbsup

I'm going to just leave this contest open until Tuesday since we are getting some awesome submissions :thumbsup

I like this too - very Tim Burton-ish :thumbsup
