A HUGE thank you to everyone who has already participated in the MedBlock Logo Contest, followed all instructions and submitted their best logo entry!
So far there have been 16 entries and with one week left in the competition, here’s to another 16 (or more) submissions this week! I would like to get at least 30 awesome entries to review this Sunday before announcing the winners on Monday, August 14th.
The deadline for submitting your logo entry is Sunday, August 13 at 6 pm EST. Afterwards, I will meet with the entire MedBlock team and we will go through each entry to choose the 3 winners. Of course, only the 1st place entry will be chosen as the official logo of MedBlock.
As the official logo of MedBlock, it will be used and posted everywhere – on the MedBlock website, social media profiles, Telegram groups, announcements, blog posts, etc.
That’s why I changed the logo requirements on the second day of the contest to specify that all entries must be vector based logos, 300 dpi, and submitted as .ai or .psd files. We’re asking for a vector based logo so that it can be resized without any change to its resolution. Also we’re seeking professional logos and consequently would like to see every logo created in either Adobe Illustrator or Adobe Photoshop.
Please note that you must submit the .ai or .psd file to [email protected] as well as make a separate Steemit post which includes your logo entry and BitShares account name.
If you do not submit your file or do not make a separate entry post before August 13 at 6 pm EST, you will not be eligible to win any prizes.
Once again, here are the instructions for the competition:
Logo Type: Vector based logo, 300 dpi
Theme: A decentralized electronic health record (EHR) system on the blockchain. Or you can also think of illustrating MedBlock as "Medicine on the Blockchain."
Format: .ai or .psd file that must be emailed to [email protected].
Create a new post entitled “MedBlock Logo Contest Entry" and include your logo entry and your BitShares account name.
Use the following tags when creating your post so that I can find your entry: medblock, medblocklogo, art, contest, steemgigs.
Email your logo file(s) to [email protected] and submit your logo entry post BEFORE August 13 at 6:00 pm EST.
And just to make you all salivate again, here is a breakdown of the prizes:
1st place: 900 BeyondBit (worth $693)
2nd place: 200 BeyondBit (worth $154)
3rd place: 100 BeyondBit (worth $77)
Total rewards up for grabs: 1200 BeyondBit (worth $924!!!)
Only the 1st place logo will be selected and used as the official logo of MedBlock
The winners will be announced on Monday, August 14!
Please include the link to your logo entry post in the comments below. All entries get a 100% upvote and resteem from me!
Also please remember that everyone is limited to only one logo! I have already received entries from participants that have included multiple logos. While this was accepted in the first week of the contest, I will strictly adhere to the one logo limit this week. Any participant who submits more than one logo will be asked to re-submit only their best logo. Don’t forget to email the .ai or .psd file for your logo!
While all of the entries received thus far are very unique and creative, the contest is still wide open as we continue to search for the 3 best logos from the Steemit community.
Keep amazing us with your imagination and creativity and let me know if you have any questions in the comments below. And feel free to resteem this post throughout the week in order to spread the word to even more talented people on Steemit!
The entire MedBlock team is looking forward to seeing some amazing and awe-inspiring logos this week!
Until next time, keep acing life!

Hello,
Im reading your requirements for logo on Steemit and I am a little concerned about this point:
"Submit your Logo, you will have to send your .ai or .psd file to [email protected]."
This kinda puts me off because you are basically asking for finished product. I know that the reason you are asking for vector format right away is to ensure the designer you are going to pick will be able to deliver, but on our side, there is no guarantee you will not just take it and use it.
I know that wouldnt be wise from your side, but still. Its like asking for finished haircut before agreeing you will pay for it.
As I have stated numerous times in my previous contest post as well as in this post, only the 1st place logo will be selected and used as the official logo of MedBlock. So rest assured, we will not "just take other logos and use them" - only the 1st place winning logo will be used by MedBlock.
Initially, I had asked for a logo 1000 x 1000 pixels in size and delivered in either .jpg or .png format. After meeting with the rest of the MedBlock team, some of whom have design and logo creation experience, we decided to change the requirements for the logo contest for a few reasons: (1) We wanted to encourage the creation of professional logos in Illustrator or Photoshop, (2) we wanted participants to create vector based logos that can be modified to any size without any change to their resolution and (3) we wanted participants to submit their .ai or .psd files in order to determine who followed instructions by creating a vector based logo in Illustrator or Photoshop.
I am pleased to see that everyone who has participated in this contest so far has followed all instructions and with 18 awesome entries already submitted, I'm looking forward to seeing more fantastic logos as we inch closer to the deadline.
Ok, I will join if I have some ideas. Thx for reply.
Hey @cerebralace
I was wondering how strict you are on the rules of only wanting images made in Adobe Illustrator or Adobe Photoshop. This software is prohibitively expensive, so not only does it cut out a lot of people who would enter your competition if they could, but it also increases the likelihood that the logos are made with pirated software.
Would you accept images made in open source alternatives, such as GIMP or InkScape? Both of these are used by many professional and can make high quality vector images. Would you, for example, accept a .svg file made on one of those platforms?
Thank you!
Originally, I had asked for logos of 1000 x 1000 pixels in size and created in either .jpg or .png format. However after meeting with the rest of the MedBlock team, we decided to look for logos that would be vector based and created in either Illustrator or Photoshop. This was to ensure that we receive professional high quality logos that can resized without any change to resolution. While 3 entries will be selected to win prizes, only the first place winning logo will be selected and used as the official logo of MedBlock.
We expect that many designers will be already using Adobe Illustrator or Adobe Photoshop. Judging from the awesome 20+ entries in the contest so far, that certainly seems to be the case. However if the price of the software is an issue, we recommend that you use a trial version of the software or seek out a friend who already has a full version installed on their computer.
