Ten dollars paypal for logo

[LSUfan]

I would like in the next 48 hours to have a logo for a small business. The business name is S&R Resources. I like creativity!! I will paypal the winner $10 no later than 48 hours from now with you permission to use the logo. You can use gif, jpg, tif, to show your work but, the final format has to be a vector file. I will pay upon receipt of the vector file from the winner. Thanks and good luck.

Edit: For now I will except a jpg and still pay the winner $10. It will be use on letterhead business cards, ect. This company deals in leasing land to oil companies.

Edit 2: Being I had a slow start I'm extending the deadline for a few days.

Some designers I know can charge as much as $50-$75 per hour of work.

I don't even know anything about this company other than it's name. I don't know what kind of objective they're trying to reach or anything. And as blurredvision said, $10 is way too little.

So what should I pay for a logo vector file?

 

[blurredvision]

Isn't there a site that has a forum-like venue for people to post what they need, and designers/artists/coders put in bids?

At minimum, how much blurredvision said. I've done some logo designs before. This is an example of concepts I did for a neurological health facility when I first began. http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/5935/logocataloguenl9.jpg

Sorry for the noob question: is it that much harder to create a vector file compared to a regular jpeg?

The cost of creating a logo is not about that.. it's mostly the creative process involved.

so lets say I already have a logo drawn out. All I need is to convert it to vector files. Will that be easy (cheap) to do?

When people want a vector logo, they generally mean that they want you to design it in adobe illustrator.

depends... if you're good with the pen tool in illustrator, it'd be a piece of cake, depending on the complexity of your logo.

Depends on the logo. Mostly the quality of the drawing, detail etc.
I do it all day long at work...

Another stupid question: Do I need to have adobe illustrator to open these vector files?

I heard one of the advantages of having a vector file is I can enlarge it or shrink it however I want. Do I have to do this in adobe illustrator as well?

It's not hard if you know what you're doing. I don't use Illustrator, but I am the man when it comes to Photoshop vector files. Is there any way anyone knows of on how to convert Photoshop vectors to *.ai format? If so, if you can provide me with a scan, PM me .

Oh, and OP, I don't know what format you need your file in, either, but $10 is WAY too little. Sorry .

If you are looking to output the file yourself, yes, you'll need some sort of vector program to do this with. If you want to manipulate the file at all and still keep the vector properties, you'll need something like Illustrator.

You are right on the advantages of vector files, in that you can enlarge to any size without loss in quality or detail.
