The idea was brought up in the middle of a couple of other threads. I thought I would start a new one and post the question formally.

Summers coming (well maybe somewhere)

Posted by: Brad Roberts Jan 19 2003, 12:06 AM

I dont mind if we make it a contest. Problem is I dont have the time right now to "review" them. Can we wait until I'm done with the classifieds ??

B

Posted by: rick 918-S Jan 19 2003, 12:09 AM

Put a deadline on it your comfortable with. And see what's submitted by then.

Posted by: tod914 Jan 20 2003, 05:28 PM

maybe have the logo designs posted on a page and run a pole? Just a suggestion.

Posted by: Brad Roberts Jan 20 2003, 06:34 PM

Make it happen Tod/Rich.

Start a new thread with a poll. I just need some time to finish the classifieds.

I do have a non vendor willing to front the money for T-shirts and stickers until I start collecting/selling them.

Posted by: Part Pricer Jan 20 2003, 06:37 PM

I think we actually need logos before we can vote on them.

Posted by: Brad Roberts Jan 20 2003, 06:38 PM

I kinda like Paul's Indy car logo with the GREEN.

It screams.

B

Posted by: Part Pricer Jan 20 2003, 06:46 PM

You mean like this?

Posted by: Jeroen Jan 20 2003, 07:15 PM

ok, paul's the first to post a logo suggestion (thanks paul!)
who's next?

cheers,

jeroen

Posted by: Brad Roberts Jan 20 2003, 07:37 PM

Damn,

I wish I had that talent.

B

Posted by: scottb Jan 20 2003, 08:01 PM

how about putting a bit of a car in the logo? i bet paul could figure out something better than this...... but at least it would print up on a shirt ok!

Posted by: Gint Jan 20 2003, 09:11 PM

Paul, Nice! So far, you have my vote.

Posted by: Part Pricer Jan 21 2003, 03:17 PM

Am I working alone here? C'mon, I know you guys can do better than this. What are you hiding Ya-Roon? Are you waiting for the prize to be announced?

Anyway, I was playing around at lunch and came up with a couple more. Please provide any comment, criticisms and suggestions.

For after a day in the garage:

Posted by: Jeroen Jan 21 2003, 03:24 PM

the beer logo is VERY cool!

cheers,

Jeroen

Posted by: GWN7 Jan 21 2003, 03:39 PM

I'll take 4 of the beer one in XL, aw heck make it a 6 pack

Posted by: r_towle Jan 21 2003, 04:47 PM

it should say...

It cant be about speed, so it must be about Beer...914

Posted by: Brad Roberts Jan 21 2003, 05:33 PM

I was actually thinking about something based on the current Miller Lite logo (on the bottles) Its circular and has nothing to do with the Porsche code of arms.

B

Posted by: Curvie Roadlover Jan 21 2003, 06:22 PM

Paul, I really like the blue one. As for the beer one, it's cute and kinda funny, but the truth is it's all about the car!

Posted by: scottb Jan 21 2003, 06:38 PM

i'll take the blue logo on a baseball cap and the beer logo on a t-shirt. where do i send the paypal to?

man, you are good at this stuff paul!

Posted by: Jeroen Jan 21 2003, 06:44 PM

Miller Lite...

Posted by: Curvie Roadlover Jan 21 2003, 07:26 PM

Nice!!

Posted by: tahoward Jan 21 2003, 07:35 PM

You folks are awesome!!!!!

Posted by: Part Pricer Jan 21 2003, 08:26 PM

I guess I drink the wrong beer.

Posted by: jonwatts Jan 21 2003, 08:30 PM

Geez, I'm afraid to submit any of my chicken scratch compared to these artists.

Jon

Posted by: olav Jan 21 2003, 08:31 PM

Nice, I like it.

Just a few suggestions:

1. no "dot.com" it has negative connotations.

2. Could you make the color signal orange?

Posted by: dgw Jan 21 2003, 10:11 PM

There's nothing wrong with dot com.

Yellow cars are fastest.

Posted by: rick 918-S Jan 21 2003, 10:41 PM

Dang... You guy's rule.

Posted by: Brad Roberts Jan 22 2003, 12:35 AM

All right Paul,

how about Sierra Nevada Pale ale ?? I dont drink Miller Lite, but I thought their logo was cool.

B

Posted by: scottb Jan 22 2003, 04:57 AM

on the beer theme, use anything from the rogue brewery's line of tasty beverages. put something together with the dead guy ale theme! :gilloutine:

Posted by: Part Pricer Jan 22 2003, 05:05 AM

That's it! I'm on strike. I'm not submitting anything else until we see what Jon Watts has for us.

I've got a few more. I'm just waiting on Jon.

BTW, Brad. I could do something based on the Sierra Nevada logo (lord knows I've spent many a night looking at it) but we need to remember what we are trying to accomplish here.

Posted by: Jeroen Jan 22 2003, 05:22 AM

"Geez, I'm afraid to submit any of my chicken scratch compared to these artists"

Oh, come on! Send in what ever ideas you've got

Cheers,

Jeroen

Posted by: Brad Roberts Jan 22 2003, 12:15 PM

Jeroen,

Have you used Blender ?? I dont mean to make drinks or cholocate shakes. Jon Watts should have a book of mine. Its a graphics program.

B

Posted by: jonwatts Jan 22 2003, 12:23 PM

This needs more color and finishing but I have to get to work (how I wish I had Photoshop at work )

(PS Brad I'm pretty sure I gave you that book back).

Jon

Posted by: Jenny Jan 22 2003, 12:37 PM

I vote for Jon's. Looks great, yet simple. much like our beloved car. And I like the slogan. Does the front bumper look *off* to anybody else??

Posted by: Part Pricer Jan 22 2003, 01:13 PM

There we go! What else are you hiding Jon?

I agree with Jenny. The graphic is nice and simple. That's something we should keep in mind as we're choosing a logo. More colors increases the price of T shirt production.

I'm not too sure on the slogan, but what do I know?

Here is another simple two-color design.

Posted by: Curvie Roadlover Jan 22 2003, 01:16 PM

WOW! Paul, keep'em coming.

Posted by: thesey914 Jan 22 2003, 01:16 PM

This?

Posted by: 74GoKart Jan 22 2003, 02:12 PM

I just couldn't resist:

Posted by: SirAndy Jan 22 2003, 02:15 PM

what about this one?
flag can be replaced :-)

and yeah, doesn't have to be MY car either ...

Andy

Posted by: ChrisReale Jan 22 2003, 02:17 PM

This one by Paul gets my vote

Posted by: SirAndy Jan 22 2003, 02:18 PM

oops, picture didn't make it ...

try again:

Got my vote

my first try:

Posted by: Curvie Roadlover Jan 22 2003, 07:06 PM

I have to agree with ChrisReale. I like this submission from Paul the best.

Posted by: Mueller Jan 22 2003, 07:13 PM

I was sorta thinking along these lines:

Posted by: ChrisReale Jan 22 2003, 07:20 PM

Ha Ha Mike.

Posted by: Jeroen Jan 22 2003, 08:19 PM

Hey Brad,

Nope, never used Blender... that's for 3d grafix right?

Keep 'em coming guys!

cheers,

Jeroen

Posted by: Curvie Roadlover Jan 22 2003, 09:49 PM

Good one Mueller, LOL

Posted by: jonwatts Jan 22 2003, 11:09 PM

There is a 914 drive in the Bay Area this weekend. I'd like to see an arial shot of a group of 914s parked to resemble a hand giving the finger. Could anything else be more appropriate?

Barring that I like what you have. I'm more of a catch-phrase person instead of the graphic artist I wish I were.

Jon

Posted by: Dave_Darling Jan 23 2003, 12:28 PM

Maybe our theme song should be Pink Floyd's "One of These Days" from the album Meddle?

The whole of the lyrics: "One of these days, I'm going to cut you into little pieces!"

--DD

Posted by: seanery Feb 6 2003, 10:43 AM

i've got a couple, more to come...

Posted by: seanery Feb 6 2003, 10:44 AM

version 2 black
This would go well on the front chest with version 1 on the back of a black shirt.

Posted by: Brad Roberts Feb 6 2003, 01:32 PM

Ok guys. Looking better. Now that the classifieds "work" we can get back to the logo contest. I gave Jeroen a small sample of the 356club logo. It is very clean and simple.

Sean.. those look pretty good.

B

Posted by: J P Stein Feb 6 2003, 01:38 PM

Seanery's version 1 would look bitchin' (that's a 60's wurd)
on a T shirt. A simple black & white. I'll take 2 or 3.

Posted by: jonwatts Feb 6 2003, 02:15 PM

What me? Bored at work?

Posted by: Dave Cawdrey Feb 6 2003, 02:29 PM

Uh, still tryin'

Posted by: seanery Feb 6 2003, 02:36 PM

Brad are you talking about the 356 Registry?

IPB Image

I bought one of the leather jackets from the goodie store after dunkel's last year.
It is leather and has the logo all hand cut and stitched in leather, small in front and big in the rear.

It's nice! I sold my 356 but kept the jacket, it was cheaper to maintain.

Posted by: seanery Feb 6 2003, 11:11 PM

here are a couple variations on theme inspired the 356 registry.
I'm not totally sold on the look, but it might be able to be worked into something nice, but I'm not inspired to do so. At least not right now.

Posted by: seanery Feb 6 2003, 11:13 PM

here's another

Posted by: seanery Feb 6 2003, 11:25 PM

version 4

Posted by: vortrex Feb 6 2003, 11:31 PM

there's the winner! (with a little more added to it)

Posted by: Brad Roberts Feb 7 2003, 12:46 AM

Actually.. Seanery I was thinking of the Porsche 356club. Simple outline of a 356.

Your rendition of the registry ROCKS Throw some Re/white/blue in there (US flag)

B

Posted by: Jeroen Feb 7 2003, 09:56 AM

ok, here's another try...

cheers,

jeroen

Posted by: mikerose Feb 7 2003, 10:01 AM

Seanery version 4 . This is Awesome

Mike

Posted by: seanery Feb 7 2003, 10:23 AM

version 3 with some red, (off) white and blue thrown in

Posted by: seanery Feb 7 2003, 01:02 PM

Racing Sticker idea

Posted by: jonwatts Feb 7 2003, 01:33 PM

I like the racing sticker a lot.

Seanery, logo version 3 needs to have the letters in PORSCHE curved to fit the circle, they look odd since they are so wide (that's my opinion at least).

Nice work!

Jon

Posted by: Part Pricer Feb 7 2003, 02:34 PM

Something a little different

Posted by: SirAndy Feb 7 2003, 02:56 PM

used seanery's sticker graphic and changed it a bit.
sorry for the "club" font, couldn't find anything better,
but you get the idea :-)

Andy

Posted by: seanery Feb 7 2003, 02:58 PM

my ver 2.

I have a ver 3, but is basically the same but the web address is in the black area.

Posted by: rick 918-S Feb 7 2003, 05:04 PM

I like the web address added. After all it is an internet club.

Posted by: Bleyseng Feb 7 2003, 10:23 PM

How about putting the banana boy in the upper left hand corner for fun?

Posted by: 74GoKart Feb 9 2003, 05:01 AM

How about Seanery's red, white, & blue with a bit of black, red, & gold added.

Posted by: Part Pricer Feb 9 2003, 07:25 AM

One for fun

Posted by: Part Pricer Feb 9 2003, 07:27 AM

Hello all...
new member here, but I don't have a 914.
I do have a 911 and was told you all are in need of a logo...so I decided to post a couple examples and will work a 914 in for you all this week.

Posted by: k9handler Feb 9 2003, 10:12 PM

another example

Posted by: Dave Cawdrey Feb 10 2003, 02:31 AM

In my photoshop quest, been thinkin...

Logo is differnt then designs or drawings. Is this thread more for a logo on a shirt, or a design/drawing on a shirt?

Cool shit so far, huh guys & gals?

Posted by: Joe Ricard Feb 10 2003, 06:58 PM

I'll take a 5th of the Old 914 club

Posted by: Dave_Darling Feb 11 2003, 12:38 PM

Aaaaah, it's those danged 914s! You can't tell which way they're facing!
