The LogoSauce Blog

Congratulations to all! :D

Hey again Digger. That’s nothing to do with this post but its just that everytime I’m loggin in I mark the option “remember me”, but when I close the site and enter again, I have to log in again… You know if this happen only to me or it’s a error or so? Thanks

Congrats on the milestone! However, and I say this with all due respect to everyone, I think the quality of some of the entries needs to be looked into, especially for the most recent contests.

I totally agree with you, xpressions. Things like that can’t be serious http://www.logosauce.com/profiles/1326

Maybe it’s funny at first, but it starts to annoy me.

I agree with Marcos and xpressions..stufflike that should not be tolerated. brings down the site and will deter potential clients from holding contests. entries should be screened for offensive material….

good call. On another note, do you think if you took a profile’s “total rating” or “total views” and divide it by the # of logos uploaded to one’s profile, would it not more accurately represent how “good” a profile’s portfolio is? I mean the lower # of logos one has but the higher the # of views/good comments the better the designer, right? Whereas right now you’ve got some guys uploading a gazillion logos and just because they have more logos uploaded they get more hits (i.e. because they have more to click on).

I agree with onesummer. And maybe do something with invisible comments?

What’s happen with the Norben comp? We can’t see it anymore and no winner has been chosen

oh and I forgot to add that you may also want to take into account how long each logo has been “on display” for when calculating profile “ratings” since obviously, the longer a logo has been viewable, the more chances it has to be clicked on. just my two cents…thanks.

sounds good to me. looking forward to it for sure.

what do you say about a page to see all the competitions winners? and a page with suggestions about the contests, ratings, scores, views…etc

the report doesn’t work, i got a Delivery Failure notice.. and with the score, i think there should be more facts to be considered when the calculations for a score is made. there are people with bad logos, people who should learn more before even posting a logo, that have a high score just because they have a lot of logos and a lot of views. if it’s ok, i will send an e-mail with a few suggestions :)

Hey Digger, we need some news about the closed comp (closed in june july etc.) no winner has been announced yet. What’s happen with this CH ?

Digger, i found it. i’ll read it all and e-mail you a suggestion list. also, for discussions i think a forum facility could be very useful. so then you don’t have to search blog entries to continue a discussion.

another thing: when i viewed the Paul Properties competition today, the entries were not in descending order.. what’s happened?

I agree about forum facility. And what happened with Parallel properties comp?

yeah, what happened with it?

ok.. then how about comments under the user’s profile. maybe each user to be able to manage those comments?

LE: and a suggestion: if a user is logged in, to have the option to arrange logos in a competition in whatever order he wants. but default to remain random.

and a public favorites list? for who wants that of course :)

Digger, Parallel properties is still missing, i went through all pages of closed competitions, and did not find it. This is not the first time a competition has been M.I.A…...

Congrats Digger on the site. Just like to add my comment about the closed comps that are taking ages to announce a winner.

I don’t know about you guys but I am desperately willing to know the results of so many competitions that have been closed from months or up and there is no word from contest holders… I was wondering if there is any possibility to make something like “penalty winner” or something… As far as I know, before every competition to be started, contest holder transfers money to Logosauce’s PayPal account… SO if contest holder is not telling who is the winner longer than a month, then the prize goes to the highest scored logo… That will make some people think before they abandon their competitions.

And I was wondering why so many contest dissapear from the list – Norben, Parallel Properties…??? What the heck is going on? This is starting to look like the Twilight Zone…

I think it makes more sense for the private competitions to dissapear AFTER a winner is selected and the designers are aware of it, no?

I found a winner for parallel properties. I guess that competition disappeared a second after announcement :)

Who won digitalstar competition??

Who won, Edie? I am not sifting through all the entries. It should be clearly marked, somewhere.

the ordering of the logos has changed, they arent displayed by score nemore! why? can u fix it?

tb1, they’re displayed by date entered, most recent first, which is the correct way to do it. displaying it by the logosauce “score” is inappropriate as it could influence the CH into choosing a design just because it has a high score, however, we hope the CH is above that and can base his decision solely on the quality of the design and not by what others think of it. the “score” a logo has can easily be exploited and raised since registration is free on this site, so technically a high score does not necessarily mean it is a “good” logo.

onesummer, ok get ya now lol! jus when i eentered they were in order of score! ta
