Here's my attempt at something, finally got happy(ish) lol
***EDIT***
After asking an opinion or two it came over that the X wasn't showing enough so I gave it a little something extra.
Lurk, this strikes me as very original, nice work.
Here's what I'd like to see:
1) make the word "names" the same color light blue as you see in the "X"/planet logo. Great idea to use silver rings around the planet as the "X" but make them stand out more as an "X". A little hard to tell at this point.
Wow, there are really lots of great designers here! I especially like your design Kilk. :cool:
Hmmmm... I'm thinking of joining this contest as well. Is it possible for a new member like me to submit entries here? :newbie:
Now this header has a lot of potential. Your on the right track becuase, I really really like that font and color and the way you desinged the text for "DeluxeNames". That is the best examples I've seen for the "DeluxeNames" text.
I also like the logo, DXN, clever.
The weakness is the background. I can't get into the background. Maybe try it on an all black bacground and then you can give the text "DeluxeNames" a great refelctive effect. Or try any type of background you want.
Here's the beginnings of a Logo:
I'm fairly busy at the moment, so let me know if it's worth my time continuing with it.

This style is clever and cool looking CBG. I can think of a lot of types of young people sites this style would be perfect on. However I need the header to appeal to an older, more professional audience.
I wish you would not give up though, I've seen you come in second last time and know you're good at this.
Update: Until December 11th, I will only be online twice as I'm on a cruise ship in the Caribean Ocean (Roayle Caribean) and interenet access onboard is very expensive (Almost $35/hour ).
I'll probably log back in again in 2 days, sorry for any inconvenience.

Have a great time! I will probably not be here Thursday as it is my Birthday

Great start!
Cheers Bryant, it is original, all my own work including the buildings
Here's the redo with your suggestions in mind. I think the X is a lot clearer now. I rendered it larger and got some more lights on it (made it a lot clearer once it scaled down) and the text was nice and easy to change (gotta love PS for that)

Good work lurk! You've fixed the "x" and that's better
We need the "..." before the word "anywhere" in the slogan if you would. Thanks lurk
FYI for Everyone::::: The person that wins this contest is going to win it on the strength of their logo. If you want to make a great logo, make one like the ones you see in this thread: http://yh.yayhooray.com/thread/9066...0-format?page=1
Morning, DeluxeNames. Any tweaks you'd like to see with mine before the end of the contest?
Yours entry is strong digifad. I can't think of any changes at this time. You can submit as many entries as you want to so if you want insurance, take your exact header, and substitute a different logo. Both your original and your version #2 will be entered.
When working on a version #2 logo, I would look at my post above and create something very Web 2.0, the winner will win on the strength of their logo. I'm looking for something abstract but that reflects the nature of "Deluxe". Something that conveys luxury, opulance, rich, the best. I can't tell you how to convey this in a logo but that is the idea.
This is a solid contender Dvirhazout. Your logo conveys "Deluxe" and the Web 2.0 sparkle effect you've incorporated is very nice.
I like the reflection of "DeluxeNames", I like your font, I like your colors.
I like the diamond logo but I would remove the globe if I were you.
I really like the reflection of your letters.
I like the sparkle effect you have on the diamond. Maybe add that sparkle effect to the letters of "DeluxeNames" as well.
I like the font and colors you've chosen of your text, however, the letters look too simple. Maybe outline them or incorporate some more web 2.0 effects to make them stand out.
I'm not a fan of the lines you have in this one. I usually do like these lined patterns but not the way you have them.
Overall, a great start and thank you for entering.

This logo is much better Kilk

There you go digifad! That's better
That is a better color Bill for sure, much better than the orange.
Here's suggestions: The text you've chosen for "DeluxeNames" is a little hard to read. Also, maybe use a different font for the slogan.
If you want to, work a little more at the logo, making it a bit more detailed, or interesting.
Overall, your doing good work here.
Thanks if there any fine tuning or anything you want added or changed or removed?

The better of the two.

I agree! I like the arrow going through the X nice touch!
My favorite two is the "O" of Overstock.com found here: http://yh.yayhooray.com/thread/9066...0-format?page=7
And the Best Buy from page two.
