Where's the 914 in the logo?

I like the red one.

Posted by: sk8kat1 Feb 16 2006, 06:07 PM

where can i get the little outline from? I wanted to add it but couldn't figure out where to get it from

Posted by: qa1142 Feb 16 2006, 06:09 PM

red one

Posted by: Headrage Feb 16 2006, 06:09 PM

I think the one you see for the club is owned by Yaroon (Jeroen), so you would have to ask him.

I was just looking to see the numbers.

The red one.

Shrink it down a hair. Shorter primarily. Wider is cool (but not too far).

Isn't windy there? you should have the buildings leaning, and the sky should be white, just like snow.

Dude! That looks great. One minor detail. Your using a link to another site! Ick! Before you get too many people using that in their sig, upload the image from you PC to this site. Use you blog. I'll help you if I need to, just let me know. You don't want 20 people's every post including a sig that is a link to another site. Why slow anything down more than you have to.

Not exactly. You can do that if you want to. That would be more appropriate than my doing it.

I downloaded your image to my computer. Than I did a post in this thread and attached that new image from my PC to this thread essentially. You could put the image in your blog, but then you'll have to change your sigs again.

So we scrapped the idea of a more inclusive great lakes area contingent, or western great lakes area? would be WI IL, OH,MN MI IN?

that would help the few guys in wisconsin and rockford area too!

Posted by: sk8kat1 Feb 17 2006, 08:36 AM

well not really .. I just think we don't want to over extend .... there is already some sone from portage IN using the logo and I figured the milwuake / madison area is near enough ... and actually I am from the rockford area so I have that covered .. and there is at least one other guy actually in rockford that is probly going to chime in...


it just seems a bit far reaching to included MI, MN, and OH

I figured a few hours drive ( all that is bareable with stock seats) if we decide to have a get together is far enough ...if you start includeing OH , MN , MI then you may be talking trailers in stead of a nice leisurly drive to a 914 luv fest

We are just out side of Chicago (~40 miles) I can see the sky line from the lake shore here smile.gif besides 80% of my neighbors have Illinois plates on at least one car cool_shades.gif

Posted by: ChicagoChris Feb 17 2006, 12:57 PM

Normally I would be againt all things cheese, sheeplove.gif but not in this case. It goes more to the poit of a few hours drive. Not a "state" issue. GreatLakes means going East till you hit ocean and I don't think that is really practicle. Besides....thoes SoCal boys may not even know where Portage or Madison are. So Chicago gives them a geographic point of reference.

I like the new oval one better! I like the "Chicago" part but I am a little biased. I am up for more suggestions that include more people. I don't know how many we are here in the immediate area. A contingent of a few is only slightly better than a contingent of one.

Posted by: BigDBass Feb 18 2006, 10:10 AM

Yeah, I'm all for a more inclusive description that would be acceptable to Mark and others in the "area". From what I've seen here, there're few enough 914ers in our part of the country that we need to stick together! So we just need something more specific than "Great Lakes" and more general than "Chicago". "Northern Midwest" doesn't have quite have the right ring to it. Maybe something aluding to our beloved snow and cold and road salt? Corn? Tri-state area? Some shared Interstate?

The name isn't as important as the fact that it seems people in the vicinity are putting some thought and effort into getting something going. It'd be great if we could have a BBQ or something this summer regardless!

Midwest Loop?

Posted by: Eric_Shea Feb 18 2006, 11:40 AM

Being an Ex-Chicagoian (6300 N. Sheridan for 12 years)... it think the skyline looks a bit mis-represented. Hancock doesn't stand out (or exist) and Sears looks like the Emprie State Building... other than that I love it biggrin.gif

Posted by: GeorgeRud Feb 18 2006, 02:13 PM

The oval sign rocks! It's known as the Chicago Region - PCA, and that includes all of northern Illinois, some Indiana members, and even a few Cheeseheads.

After the Parade that Milwaukee put together a few years ago, they should be proud to have their own cheesehead contingent, but are always welcome in Chicago. They did a great job!!!

Even though I'm an old Chicago boy (suburbs, actually), I've always admired the way that GreenBay has had it's own football team owned by the townsfolk, not some spoiled, megelomaniac millionaire! Elkhart Lake's Road America is also owned by the shareholders, many of which are local residents of the town, as well as Chicago Region SCCA types.

Wisconsin rocks, even though they do think of us as FIBs (F****in Illinois Bast**ds).

I'd gladly sign up for that Chicago Contingent Logo if you know how to do it. Thanks

I like the wind effect. But the curent one can be resized. Right?

Really I am up for either. How does the rest of the group feel about it?

Posted by: auggie91420 Feb 18 2006, 08:00 PM

Great to see the Chicago area get some play in this group. Let's keep the area identified as Chicago (easy for me to say, as I live right in the city). I bought my car 21 years ago in Southern California, and when I moved to the midwest in '98, I pretty much put the car away in storage. It wasn't quite the same driving experience for me here, but great city nonetheless. Last year, I finally got my car out of storage; I just couldn't stand to see it just sit there. I rebuilt the motor and cleaned it up, and got it running in August. I'm looking forward to enjoying the car this summer and meeting other 914 people in the area. I'm also looking for any excuse to drive it around on something other than city streets. Hope this "contingent" gets going this year.

As far as the logo goes, my signature says it all. Great job.

Posted by: itsa914 Feb 18 2006, 08:30 PM

In 2004 I organized the windy city breakfast and we would have a good turnout. I wasn't able to do it last year and 2006 is going to be busy also. I would love to be part of a Chicagoland get together this year. Never to early to plan. smile.gif

Another in the same theme with different lettering font. The idea behind the translucent shapes of the car ,and 914 is so the city skyline flows through from side to side.

Hi Dan, for resizing the image in photoshop,go to IMAGE on top ,and click. Go down to IMAGE SIZE,click. In the lower left corner click on the box for CONSTAIN PROPORTIONS,than under the DOCUMENT SIZE in the same window type in the width size you want,and click OK...done.

I did do some wind,and blur in the water area. As for freelance,we could talk.

All the logo designs are free for the Chicago Contingent to use,and produce. I would hope some of the extra money raised, if any would go to the Chicago Club to be used for their yearly events.

Nick,

Is that one the right size for a signiture?

Posted by: sk8kat1 Feb 20 2006, 07:48 PM

ok boys .. I am switching back to the crap one I made ...

I am sick of the shit storm ...... and just tired .. I attempted to ask the ceator of the orginal club logo if it was ok to use the modified design for a small run just for our little community by way of a PM and not in the public eye to try and work this out ..

no response

so I am taking down the links and the stores

if anyone wants to help me work on a new one I would like that ...

.. still not real sure why I got scorched for what was an inocennt mistake that was not going to be mass produced or any thing.

either way I am tired of the bull shit and tired of tring to make some peace with this situation so that we can possibly still use the logo that nick made up ..

no response ...

so wave the white flag .....

I go to work today and come back to find that we are now ordered " for our own sake" to chaneg the logo by the end of the week ..

I would love to work this out , maybe we can .. but the designer of the club design seems to really be on his ear , and I can see his side , but truely no harm was intended


I am not like that I am for the most part a good guy ...




Posted by: BEE DRIVEN Feb 20 2006, 08:22 PM

I feel I need to show a true comparison of the two designs to the Chicago Contingent. I am willing to make adjustments to give you guys the best logo out there. It is not difficult to come up with a new 914 shape. Please review the comparison below.

Thank you, Nick

Mike you did nothing wrong, and I for one am going to keep the logo in my sig. I don't see how you can copy right a silhouette of any vehical that unless you are the designer of that vechical or its company.

Hey, guys. I commented before, and I've been following this loosely. I REALLY liked your guys' logo ideas. It's really a shame that you can't use them. BUT. The point of this comment is that the artists behind it should be proud. It really did look good. And I understand how it would piss someone off to not be able to use it. You'll all find another logo. I just wanted to say that I like what you guys are doing.

UNFORTUNATELY US MIDWEST GUYS WANTED TO BE in A 914 CONTINGENCY ALSO...WE HAD SEVERAL DRAW UP SOME COOL LOGO'S JUST FOR US MIDWEST GUYS

SADLY, WE HAVE LOST OUR WAY AND THIS PLACE IS BECOMING LIKE EVERY OTHER CRAPPY INTERNET SITE.

WE'VE LOST OUR SENSE OF FELLOWSHIP AROUND 914'S AND LOST OUR SENSE OF TOGETHERNESS.

IT'S BEEN A SAD MONTH.

Well put.

Nick...Thank you for the comparison. I guess there was a REAL difference.

But it's probly not a good idea to keep using the banner. This will cause a LOT of trouble if you guys do. I remember all the trouble over the "moderator" thing. This site is changing. And even if it's not for the better, I'm going to stay out of the way and decide whether I want to stay AFTER it's done. It'll be like fighting an earthquake to struggle against it.

So let's PLEASE not try to piss anyone off. sad.gif

Thank you Chris, maybe the comparison will shed some light on the differences. No one wants to steal some other's pride,and joy. Keep in mind it still needs to look like a 914.

Guys. Don't get the thread locked!

Posted by: itsa914 Feb 20 2006, 09:14 PM

Why, I'm asking a question. What if the silhouette is faced the other direction would that be ok?

Posted by: BEE DRIVEN Feb 20 2006, 09:17 PM

I am hoping Jeroen can review the comparision,and point out the areas of the design in which he has the most concern with. It would help the process of completing a new design. I respect Jeroen passion for his design.

I think one of the 14-less logos will be best for now.

I like the Oval with the sunset skyline and the blue car. Looks to me like there are enough differences to avoid artistic "issues". He said that it was ok at first but that was before it went this far. So if he is against it now I think it will still look good.

Not really, its just that artwork/design is copyrighted. To use it or something very similar is not cool so make the design original and be done with it.

O Mi Gado! I am gone for a few weeks and all you guys do is bitch....
