Default Logo Competition

Hi everyone

After seeing some of the talent on display here I would like to offer a competition of my own (I love competitions).

After much discussion on this forum about the name I am now looking for a logo for my new website called Kandy X-Change.

It is a site where people from various countries can swap candy from their own country with people elsewhere in the world. There is a lot more to it but that is the main thrust of the site.

I was hoping to design the logo myself but clearly I don’t have the skills for such a great project but I am confident someone here does.

I wish I could offer a huge prize but I can’t – sorry guys.

The winner of this competition will earn my eternal thanks PLUS if I decide to use your logo on the site I will provide clear credit to you and a link to your own site in a prominent place if you would like that (and if your site is suitable - no adult sites etc.).

This competition will run until I find the right design or until you get tired of entering.

Does this sound okay?

Please feel free to enter AS MANY TIMES AS YOU WISH. If you need more info just ask here.

P.S. Some words to describe the winning entry might be: professional, clean, simple, clever, big bright and fun.

Thank you.

One thing that struck me is the name's a little long. Maybe something like Kandy:Xchange might be a little better. If you've already set up the name and domain ingnore me. Just a thought.
Might want to try the wonderful people at http://www.protoip.com/ for hosting. (Just a small plug there Andy)

OOOH! I HATE YOU!

The number of sleepless nights I had and stress headaches I suffered trying to come up with a name I liked and you just breeze in after a few minutes and come up with a better one.

I guess ofrcing a name never works - it should just pop right in there.

I am open to any new suggestions for a name too if they are as good as your suggestion. Do you think I should create a new competition thread for this brain storming?

I really like your suggestion so after a couple of hours this forum has come to my rescue already - MAGIC!!!

Edit your post at the top to include coming up with name suggestions. I only pointed it out because it's a designers pet hate when a name isn't easy to design around but you're not usually allowed to mention it. Well done for taking it in the right context.

With Kandy:Xchange designers will already be thinking "Now what can I do with the K and the X" trust me.
