Contest Brief

This is an additional to a recent contest that was posted, but we are now looking for an additional angle, or to try something different with it. Please read the briefly below carefully (especially if you did try the other contest...) !

--

We are looking for an updated logo for us to use in new graphics items, so hoping for something simple and easily printed as to be used in a variety of locations.

A winning bid will supply high quality logo(s) which are suitable for sending to our designs to use (such as shop signage and posters with templates we already have), as well as lower quality/flattened (1 or 2 colour max) logos that we can use in printing (carrier bags, uniform, etc).

A range of "layouts" are also welcome, as you can see with the uploads of previous/current logos, some are single line text, some double, etc. We want a range so that we can be flexible with big or small artwork in future.

Our only requirement is use of main colour (orange) which is RGB 237,110,0. Other colours can do what you want with, but we prefer to stick to White, Grey/Silver, Black. Bonus may be awarded for anyone who produces a palette range for us to use in future.

The original/ older logo uses an Orange Man/Character, with the £ sign. At present, its attempted to look 3D, with shading and colour tones, etc. It doesn't work well at present for cheap simple printing where you pay per colour. Where it is curved, it is also very hard to incorporate into other designs. So, we want to try and keep some aspect of this original logo, but "flatten" the image, possibly with or without the £ sign, but keep a VERSION / YOUR INTERPRETATION of the character. In my mind I am also thking about having the logo within a box / rounded box .. this is so it can incorporate into other designs (such as the early website image you see below).

So focus on using the character as a flattened simple logo... stick to limit of colours, a MAX of 4 different in am image, but the logo must be workable ideally going down to just 2 colours (ie - carreir bag printing is expensive, 2 colours much cheaper than 3 .. so limited colours for printing, few more for signage).

The £ sign is far from essential - if you works being incorporated, then great, otherwise, I am more focussed on the character (who can be redesigned, and is nicknamed "Alf" :P)

Whilst the images uploaded dont show massively, we can incorporate some grey, as previous uniforms have been mid-grey shirts, or dark grey/graphite style colour polo shorts. So, the logo needs to work with that colour background

Business details - we are a second hand retailer, and provider of financial services. We specliase in jewellery and electrical goods (mainly gadgets/phones).

A simple friendly logo, that be be printed and used in future.

Thanks!

Just to focus on .. ideally more focus on the Character/Man and not the £ sign .. can be both, but not just a £ ideally. Logo/man/etc should not be "too big" - dont want the logo to dominate, should just compliment the store name "Cash Solutions" rather than be the sole defining point. Thanks all!!

Thanks or the early entries guys - I will try to give some inividual feedback to entries. As a general point, ideally I'll be looking for a few images for each entry, so examples o a 2/3/4 colour logo, on different colour backgrounds to give us the flexibility of using it.
