My website is up (finally!) and I put my logo design project up on crowdspring yesterday. I am offering well above the average price and all the submissions I have gotten simply suck. As in, I could do better than any of them using Adobe Illustrator. In fact, I have designed some adequate logos myself that I am willing to use if I cannot find anything else.
Some of the entries were submitted within a few minutes of my posting, so obviously they didn't put much creative thought into it. I think I've given adequate guidance to designers....it's just that the designs suck. And when one person puts up a sucky design, others quickly start using that as a template for their sucky designs.
Is this typical? Will I get better responses during the week?
I'm not too worried since I get most of my money back if I don't choose a logo. Should I hang in there or bail and go to 99designs? Up my offering?
