DESIGN CHALLENGE: Dino's Pizzaria Logo & Box

[balou]

DESIGN CHALLENGE: Dino's Pizzeria - 2 color Logo & Box

Everyone had enough of the New Years resolution diets? Let's order up some pizza then. Someone sent me a PM with this Design Challenge idea a while back - design a pizza box. I didn't save the PM so not sure who it was - give us a shout out.

SPECS:
Use the name: Dino's Pizzeria.
Dino is on a tight budget so he needs the logo and box printing to be 2 color only. Box printing can not bleed off the edge as that adds cost. Use the photo sample below to showcase the finished work. As always, have fun and keep it CSFW.

Balou and Senjula: it's spelled pizzeria, not pizzaria. Before this gets too far in. :)

[senjula]

I knew that but was following the name as stated in the challange..lol...

Balou and Senjula: it's spelled pizzeria, not pizzaria. Before this gets too far in. :)I blame the Wisconsin school system on this one :P

[hewligan]

(where did I put my crayons? D'oh!)

Did you eat them?

The red ones taste best!

[morea]

shoot, you caught me. :o

I still have the colored pencils around here somewhere though... I'll try to get something together balou! (hopefully, my act, for starters!) :D

[urstwile]

Hey, maybe when you get your act together Mo, we could put on a show in the barn, like Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland. :)

Ooops! Guess I need to use spellchecker too!

I blame the Wisconsin school system on this one :P

I went to school in YOUR state Mynock. :p I just live with the smart kids now. ;)

[Red Kittie Kat]

I'll get working on something :D

[urstwile]

Nope, actually I've heard you sing, I think you should be Judy Garland (minus the tranquilizers). :) I'm notorious for making funny faces, so I think I'd probably be better as Micky Rooney. :D Although I'm probably too tall. ;)

[morea]

you've heard me sing, huh? I guess I didn't realize how much I'd had to drink that night, because I sure don't remember any singing.

oh dear. :o

[urstwile]

teehee. What I heard sounded lovely. You've got a very nice voice.

For those of you wondering, I had the privilege of meeting Morea on my last trip to NYC, back in June. She's got a lovely voice. :)

[morea]

and a weak head for alcohol. LMAO!

[urstwile]

You were fine, Mo. :)

[MyST]

I just wanted to get something in here. Maybe I'll do something a bit more serious later.

[MyST]

OK... so here's another quickie then.

http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j44/SOLOGraphic/GDF%20Stuff/DinosFastDelivery2.gif

Cut me some slack... I'm doing this during my breaks. :D

[balou]

I didn't like the box layout so I thought up a couple of options. Maybe Dino can spring for a second red plate. Keeping in with the Las Vegas theme...

[mac.FINN]

Am I the only one that read this as "D-eye-no's" instead of "D-ee-no's"?

I half expected all the boxes to have pictures of little purple dinosaurs on them.

You must be from Canada. :D

I saw several spellings - Dino, Deano, Deeno. I chose Dino. And vtwingary did put Bedrocks' famous little dinosaur on his box.

edit: It is the English language anyways. hear, here, there, their, Puerto Rico

OK, so maybe this recycling thing is going a bit too far...
