About two weeks ago I launched a contest on JohnChow.com for readers to win a free t-shirt from my new Cuerpo design line.

The contest was simple, all you had to do was enter via Twitter, and after all the entries I have chosen one winner.

And the winner is…

@ncleveland for t-shirt option (C) “In the palm of my hand”

Congrats

I don’t know if John is going to post the winner on his site, but Congrats to the winner, if you haven’t already you will be receiving a DM from me via Twitter for your address and preferred t-shirt size. I’m gonna give you 48 hours from this post to respond to me before selecting a new winner.
Thanks to all for participating and congrats to the winner again!

<3 Love Ya!

So, I think it’s funny that I started seeing entries for my contest on Twitter before realizing that John Chow had posted my contest giveaway. But many thanks and love to John for the guest post opportunity!

The competition was “tough and grueling” and after beating himself out as the only entry to take the gold, Benjamin Cip is official winner of last months logo package.

Here is a reminder of what you’ve won:

The Gold Logo Package which includes: 5 concepts, 3 revisions, basic logo placement instructions, 5 file formats, a favicon file, and 1 Free Photoshop Me! Avatar.

As well as
+1 Free Custom 125 x125 .gif-animated ad for their site
Unlimited email correspondence and communication.
7 Day turnaround for each custom item.

Total Value of $275

Congratulations to Benjamin, but don’t worry for the rest of you because I’ll soon be starting another contest probably at the end of this month. However, I’ll be temporarily retiring the logo contest as I understand many people aren’t sure of how they’re going to brand themselves as of yet. Stay tuned for more news about that here at awalkinmyshoes.com.

Now for the winner

You will be receiving an e-mail from me within the next 24 hours to start the logo process. This e-mail will include more questions about your logo needs based on the information you provided as well as additional information. Remember that this package only includes 5 concepts and 3 revisions, so I will try to ask as many questions as possible to optimize on the number of concepts and revisions you have available.
After the logo is finished, I will move onto the additional graphics included in this package, including:
+1 Free Photoshop Me! Avatar
+1 Free Custom Gif-Animated 125 x 125 Ad

That email will communicate the necessary information to provide you with your additional graphics.

New Painting Coming

I’ve spent about the last 2-3 days working on a new digital painting that is a recreation of a painting I made back when I was 16 years old. It’s almost complete, and I’ve got to say–it’s the most craziest awesome thing I’ve created as of today.

Congrats again for Benjamin!

Comments will be reviewed and 1 winner will be chosen at random

Disqualifications
The only way you would be disqualified is if you don’t know what you want for your logo.
Which would basically mean that I’d have “carte blanche.” It’s important to understand
the concept of branding, especially as it pertains to your online presence,
and anyone who would just want me “to do anything” (or you don’t know what kind of logo
you want) will be disqualified–I’ll end my frustration before it starts.
This also applies to any possible winner who after winning has decided to change their logo concept (leading to a carte blanche situation),who will then forfeit their win and another winner will be chosen.

Deadline: Monday, June 1st, 2009.

Good Luck to Everyone!
