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)

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

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

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

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.

B

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

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

It screams.


B

You mean like this?

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

cheers,

jeroen

Damn,

I wish I had that talent.

B

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!

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

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:

the beer logo is VERY cool!

cheers,

Jeroen

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

it should say...

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

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

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!

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!

Miller Lite...

Nice!!

You folks are awesome!!!!!

I guess I drink the wrong beer.

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

Jon

Nice, I like it.

Just a few suggestions:

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

2. Could you make the color signal orange?

There's nothing wrong with dot com.

Yellow cars are fastest.

Dang... You guy's rule.

All right Paul,

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

B

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:

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.

"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

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

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

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??

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.

WOW! Paul, keep'em coming.

This?

I just couldn't resist:

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

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

Andy

This one by Paul gets my vote

oops, picture didn't make it ...

try again:

74 Gokart! That is *well* funny! I would but a shirt with this on!
Got my vote

my first try:

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

I was sorta thinking along these lines:

Ha Ha Mike.

Hey Brad,

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

Keep 'em coming guys!

cheers,

Jeroen

Good one Mueller, LOL

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
