Revision with "WRX" font (or something like it):

Revision with same font, more closely spaced latters and "plastic overmold" added between letters so it looks more like a real badge:

work was slow today.

 

alot of this crap is ugly so far. hey i made this and maybe somebody with photoshop can help me out. it needs a little work

 

Ok, I was just going for a top of the page type logo, like the one that's up there already just a bit better looking. I'll keep messing around, this can be larger or smaller too. Here goes:

 

I went to school for some graphic design (although I'm not making any money doing it, heh) and I'm trying to stick with what I learned. The "logo" should be small in filesize and should also be able to be resized and used for anything. This includes business cards, decals, t-shirts and anything else where the club is being represented.

I think some of these ideas are really nice, but I would like to aim for a cleaner look for a forum-based site. The large pictures that include a car or whatever else are a bit much for a logo. So anyway, hopefully my rambling can help others out with thier logo ideas. Thanks for listening.

Here's my idea of placement:

 

I really liked a lot of the logos but most of them aren't web site friendly or universal. I also like the http://www.boomspeed.com/ellinopedo/newindexnew.htm
suggested layout. But I really like the current site the way it is, simple and familiar.
That's why I really like FlaaB's idea. The web site is still simple and familiar but the new logo simply combined with the matching colored links (control panel, register, calender etc.) make it 50 times better.

Thats my 2 cents.

 

Hey thanks Chaos. I like the old familiar easy to navigate look as well, so I decided to try to create a nice clean logo for it.

Thanks again for the nice words!

OK, here's a new revision. I took the WRX style logo, added the mold lines, detailed it a bit more, separated the hyphen from the i and the c, and changed the text in the bar at the bottom to pink.

BTW, Alex, I have full hi-res versions of the last few I have done as layered photoshop files as well as the original artwork for all my logos saved as an Illustrator file, so if one of mine is picked, I can supply you with the necessary materials to get merch made up.

EDIT: Wow, that file was way too big for a masthead logo! Let's try this at a smaller size and lower compression settings...

 

hold on hold on.. i have one coming up.. just give me a few ticks and i'll show you my design arright?

 

Well I was a little bored today so.... I made a fake boxer engine in AutoCAD and used it in Photoshop to make this logo. This is just my first revision, so there is a lot that I'm planning to change. Let me know what you think

 

Okay... i was pretty sure i attached it, but I guess not. If it doesn't work this time than I'm an absolute moron.
