CALLING ALL GRAPHIC DESIGNERS, by RBK on Nov 20, 2009 23:01:46 GMT 1, I'm really just asking for some help. Can't pay much/anything - and am wondering if someone may look at this as an opportunity for some more exposure.
We'll highlight whoever's design we chose and it can be put in your professional CV with a glowing recommendation whenever needed.

CALLING ALL GRAPHIC DESIGNERS, by rusty1986 on Nov 20, 2009 23:07:56 GMT 1, would you ask a plumber to fix a pipe for free? graphic design is a profession, just the same as any other, to offer that the 'payment' for the design is to put it in your own CV is insulting

CALLING ALL GRAPHIC DESIGNERS, by RBK on Nov 20, 2009 23:31:28 GMT 1, I'm fine paying a small amount for a design (please PM me how much you'd do it for).
I just blog for my love of urban/street/contemporary art & 90s hiphop. Can assure you I don't make a dime off that website (hell I don't even know how to add advertising if I wanted to).

CALLING ALL GRAPHIC DESIGNERS, by monkeyart on Nov 21, 2009 0:03:41 GMT 1, Oh out of interest how much is a small amount? But with a bigger amount we could give your company/blog an identity that people would recognise and respect, maybe even lob in a bit of SEO, who knows ! However with a small amount we designers could knock something up to make your brand/blog look shit! Your choice :-)
Peace MA

I prefer it without a logo - it looks great just like that. A logo might make it too busy?!

CALLING ALL GRAPHIC DESIGNERS, by BK83 on Nov 21, 2009 7:12:22 GMT 1, Wow. Is everyone on here joking?! RBK is a long standing member and I'm sure he only has good intentions here. He is reaching out to anyone who may just want to have a bit of funa nd put something together for him. If you don't want to participate, then DON'T! For f**k's sake. When did the forum become so f**king cynical about EVERYTHING?
I miss the old days....

Think you might have missed the point here. The whole free pitch issue is a can of worms amongst designers and not aimed at RBK in fact most Graphic Designer forum members i guess including myself would only be too happy to help RBK out here, and probably will.
For the record, anyone can do a logo but it takes time and a bit of love to do something half decent. Would you commission an artist and expect a free canvas?

Bizarre response. If you don't wanna help someone out, thats fine. But why come over all Bob Crowe head of the Graphic designers union about it?

just out of interest, if someone said to you, i have a bit of an empty space on my wall, do you want to have a bit of fun and do me a canvas, and you can put the result on your website saying you did this, what would your response be?
as for the anyone who would want to have a bit of fun comment, he didnt ask everyone, he specifically asked for a graphic designer, which is a profession, to do him some work for free
graphic design is lucky that it is one of those jobs that the people who do it generally like what they do, but it is nethertheless, still a job, something you need to train for years to be any good at it, and should be treated the same as any other
you dont want to pay to get it done professionally? then you dont get a professional job

CALLING ALL GRAPHIC DESIGNERS, by spirit on Nov 21, 2009 14:24:56 GMT 1, Good luck RBK - hope you get your logo!
My view is that if the client is asking the designer to sacrifice payment, then the client should sacrifice choice - the designer should get complete creative control and the client gets what he's given.

CALLING ALL GRAPHIC DESIGNERS, by RBK on Nov 21, 2009 18:34:40 GMT 1, Thank for the nice comments from a few of you.
As I mentioned - I'm not averse to paying a small sum - but since the blog doesn't make any money (just like many of you creative types, I invest my own time photographing these art events, retouching the photographs, uploading them all, and sharing the information for the masses) I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me out. Maybe the exposure is worth it for you - maybe not. We'll gladly highlight the logo maker's portfolio/other projects on our blog as a thank you.
I don't care if you are a professional graphic designer or some young computer wiz who lives above your parent's garage - just want a cool logo as the block letters are a bit drab. As BK83 mentioned, maybe it's a bit of fun for someone to do.
Thanks!
