Is 100K sats enough to comission a logo from any freelance logo makers, illustrators, designers here? No AI, obviously.
It's not for commercial use. Just for fun for a that little known club of nobodies. 😏
I haven't got all the details yet but that's the plan anyway.
It depends on how much time and effort you put into it
I say that should be more than enough
Hmmm
Depends on subject matter.
And I'm sure you won't just accept the 1st one shown to you or there will be some edits.
I'd go 125k sats.
I’d say yes and set a specific number of revision iterations- that’s where it can get crazy, the back and forth to get it “just right”.
Also specify what kind of files are you getting: just for online? High enough resolution in case you want to print Tshirts or something else? Vector or raster (vector can scale without loosing resolution, raster doesn’t scale larger but can be designed large and get smaller while still looking good.).
All that may be a lot for your purposes, but in my mind, you are paying for a professional experience.
Good to know. I appreciate this.
From my experience, contracting art on Nostr is very loose, and it depends who you work with. That amount of sats is a lot to me, so I default to the process and questions art directors I worked with in my career would use and how I model my own contract art services.
Someone brought up commercial rights … selling something with a logo, even to just club members would technically fall under that. A commercial license could be just an additional flat fee (or whatever you work out with the designer) that gives you the right to sell stuff using the logo. Otherwise the understanding is you don’t sell any stuff: the personal license.
You may also want to set a time limit/expectations: when you want to see designs, how long for revisions.
And decide how you are going to communicate: DMs, email, 0xchat. Id recommend email as it’s been more reliable for me than DMs of any kind.
I’ve had very good art commission experiences with Nostr and some where the follow up for info somehow fell through. 🤷
Thanks again. I appreciate your input.
I've got a couple of illustrator friends who can do this however, I figured lets see what kind of "service" opportunity can come out of Nostr. What kind of experience will I get.
I'm starting to think I should make this a contest. Bring me your best interpretations of such and such criteria. I'll play a flat fee for each revision.
Hmm.. Idk. Really just throwing out ideas.
It will be for a personal license. It's a club of my favourite people. Really just for fun. 🙂
The contest idea is a fun and feels in the spirit of Nostr.
It would get you a range of first impressions to then choose a direction and since the artist is paid for revisions, you could even choose more than one person to work with if you like more than one design. 👍
Yes! Now I just need to figure out what I would like to see.
That can be hardest part. As an artist designing for someone else, it’s extremely helpful to have examples provided.
Kittl.com has a large range of logo designs, if you want to browse and see if somethings catch your eye. Or ask folks to reply with some of their own examples.
Someone mentioned a mood board: that would be less specific logo examples and more photos and colors of what you want someone looking at the logo to see/feel and what you like and don’t like, because what you don’t like is important info …… I worked on a project where the designs made it all the way up to the final stakeholder who didn’t like green, which no one had bothered to tell us. 😮💨
Love this idea. It gives newbies the opportunity to show what they can do as well.
Not commercial being key point. You have a mood board already?
My minimum drawing fee is typically $250 so I reckon that would be over double what you’re looking to spend in sats at today’s market rate.
Would love to help out and may even offer services for discount to help build community.

Holler!
Great work! Clean and vibrant.
Will keep you in mind. 🙏🏻
If you provide a sketch, drawing, etc. with details of the letters, colors, etc., that's fine.
If you need the designer to guess everything, it will take too much time and effort, so it would be too little.
Get in touch with nostr:npub1pztyedfuhn32htalk4tq5lgl3tedsrej55lgghfsf6ps55dlqy8smvqr2x he is a well skilled designer. He also made the logo for nostr:npub1purpleye8gzrzss99nzqqnemtf7g8xxj8p950nkyknnuqzycuh5qnazkzp 🥰
Thank you 🙏🏻
Will keep this in mind.
I’ll do it !
