Releaselog’s Birthday Competition: First Entries

Here’s the first update on the entries we received so far. As I promised, we will keep you updated with the progress of our competition by presenting 3 or 4 entries every day. The good thing is we already received over 100 entries and it’s just 24 hours from the beginning. This will be a tough choice! Here are first artworks from our readers, which may serve well as motivation. The most of you sent a graphic work so far – logo, wallpaper or banner, but we had few original attempts too. Good work everyone, keep it up, the prizes are waiting!
Note: The below are simply examples and are not the “best” the “worst” or whatever, its just a random pick. We will decide which will win on Saturday. Dont fret if your entry is not shown.

nice job guys
i like the 2nd and the 3rd
i like the last 2
the 2 photo its a simple example os a dvd photoshop secrets xDD ohhh woooow original 100% hahahaha
Third from the top! Looks great!
1, 2 and 3 look sweet.
Second one looks cool as hell.
Feast.of.Love.DVDRip.XviD-DiAMOND
first or second is the best.
maybe the first without nuke symbol
2nd Image, Someone have watched PHOTOSHOP TOP SECRET DVD
first 2 are niiiiccceee all are good tho
So.. Mine wasn’t good enough or you didn’t receive it.
Hmm..
Number 2 is not original at all…
Copy more from a DVD … -_-’
I like all! 1st and 2nd are top! Good luck picking the best?!
Easily number 3! Number 2 is so simple and those black infraction lines ruin it even more tbh 1 just looks like someone took a wallpaper cut out the blue squares put in a duke nukem logo and wrote release log!
Number 3 all the way!
Shattered Type template .PSD DVD 2 of photoshop secrets xDD
3rd!!!!!!!!!!!!! coz the 1st 2 looks kinda simple, and the last 1 aint nothin compared to the 3rd.
The 2nd is so great!!!! simple but aggressive
I like 1 and 2 the best
It would be nice to vote on the many entries you have.
Although these probably don’t represent the best of what you’ve had; I agree that number three is an excellent banner – if it was a logo instead (designed to fit a bg colour) it would be even better.
The top two are plain in my opinion (same old PS tricks) – but then I work with graphics all day long, so my opinion is probably a little biased.
the original so far is still best. its blue and white muster decry a pokemon innocence that belies the actual content. Without reading the site the design would tell you it’s a wholesome showplace for people to love and prattle about freeware they can get.
the whole genius is destroyed by making the design as obvious as its content.
gee i bet none of these made from scratch
1st one is best
Don’t know why no one else likes the last one. The candles and all… so fitting with the theme of the contest! I thought the last one was original and very fitting to the theme!
@Dre #24
cauze it’s just plain ugly.
@Dre2 #24
i you look closely to the third one it will show you the 2 pillars (candles if you like) in it too.. this will also be my fav. of these 4 random contestants. the 3 other feel and breath template all over them… (actually 3 does too.. but just a better one then the rest)
Sweet! I better get off my ass and put something lame together and email it 2 martin before 2 late !
@Mr. X.
i was thinking about the same ….
to make it simple
though maybe i’d make a cutout of RLSlog and photgraph the shadow in a nice setting… couple minutes work.. winning result
2 and 3. maybe 1 but that symbol on the left is dumb
First – gradient horror on the left, two simple texts on the right, and i don’t like what i’m seeing in the background.
Second – Well, i knew i saw it somewhere, contest work made with tutorials? Lawl, no thanks.
Third – It could be pretty original and good looking but the border of the text, and both of the fonts are just ruining it for me.
Fourth – I don’t comment the ps-virgin type of work. Well, let’s be honest – we all made that kind of things when we were starting with ps.
Wow, those all look great. I’m lovin’ the two candles in the fourth one =D. I hadn’t thought of making a banner before… Hmm, I guess I’m better of editing others’ photos.
3rd,
the others are not good.
the second one is good
I like the design of the first one, the font of the second one but the quality of the last one. I don’t care for the third one at all.
#5 sample is the best!
First one’s a bit too Cinemageddon, innit.
3rd for sure
lets see some more!
Where are the samples ? I see nothing.
Looks like a lot of brush-work to me. I do like the first one though. This is my 9-5, so I’m not sure if I’ll be entering…we’ll see..
3
#1 – looks syck…looks scened-edged – the best
#2 – Harry potter knock off
#3 – too girly, might as well put barbie’s on it
#4 – ewwwwwww
I love the third one and I think the second one is ugly.
where is my ms paint banner! I worked so hard on it :/
I vote for #2. But they all are very good. I like the “shattered” look the best though.
they are all sh1t.. none of them capture anything to do with the scene.
you need to get some old school bbs graphics in there. ami/x or Vision-x, pcb stuff
yea, i like the broken one, that kinda reminded me of the matrix. and no, scoopex, they’re not all “sh1t”. They are excellent pieces of art. I noticed how learned you are in the art field and I felt you needed to recognize their talent. Go make a logo, and I’ll be sure to look it over, then call it “sh1t” just because losers like you should be banned.
Believe.
these are really dated looking, (circa 2001)
im sure more bad design is soon to come.
The first one is the best but remove that nuked sign.
Didn’t like one of them so let’s hope the next entries will be better…
Fantastic work everyone … great creativity !
i do music, not graphical art… next compo should be a compisition… the webhosting is mine if that is the case!
ps… back from the university tuesday social; evidently trolleyed so expect nothing worthwile from me tonight, though i thank you for that morgan freeman movie; that might get me through the eve
3rd looks HOT
number 2 stands out, but has too much black empty space around the image, take some of that back a bit and it would be more pronounced.
The first two entries will suit the website. They flow well with the colors here. For those voting the 3rd submission, do you have any sense of art at all? How will that banner go with the blue background and everything else?
Anyhow, its a cheesy one after all. I’d vote for the second *thumbs up*
Oh and to “Mr. X” *middle finger*
How on earth does #2 look like a harry potter rip off?
#2 is the best.
I vote for photos 2 & 3.. If I would have to choose between both, 3 would be the one
=D
3
Wow, a LOT of copyright infringement!!
Icons theft.
Picture theft.
Typographic font theft.
Numero 3!
What’s with all the (rude, aggressive) negative comments, so you don’t like some of them, that’s fine just leave it at that, there’s no need to bash people. This competition is open to everybody, and that includes people who are new to it, all this bashing has probably stopped a lot of people even attempting it.
Nice work to the entrants by the way.
i like number 2, very nice indeed
I don’t know what the hell’s going on, but none of my comments seem to go through, so I’ll just say that these works obviously are not good enough.
Fact: “Mr. X” is G4Y!
Please commit suicide and die.
the first one is the best
No. 2
#2
#1 is best imo.
I really like the Second and Third entries. 3rd is my fav just likes the way it pops haha
well u guys better have a look at web site’s color set,then decide which one is better.
No. 2
No. 3
I think number 1 is the best one there.
all of them are great but i liked 2nd and 4th.
I like the first one. Then again I like all kind of hazard warnigs.
meh… i don’t like still stuff.
