Re: The board needs an icon
Nothing about it looks "American" Chopper to me.tc1400 wrote:Looks good, but we're not representing an 'American Chopper' look. Most subscribers will have the stock appearance to their ride. My final submission (just a few tweaks). Was sort of leaning on the red 'S' symbol from the get-go because it's clean and pops, IMHO.
I just look at what it can be vs what it is type of thing. If I could, I would make it a GIF and transition from the stock look to the chopper. That may prove to be a task to big. In the end, as long as the name is in the logo, does it really matter?

Re: The board needs an icon
I'm liking the font from Jolsens. Sorry, me with little talent can just give ideas. If they sound good to someone that want to try, go for it. Otherwise, I won't be whining cause I got no right to whine since I ain't designin any.Jolsen wrote:
Along with Jolsens font above, I like ddoggs idea of having a chopper look. He's got some nice pics of bikes.
Lets get some attitude with our logo, we ain't no stock bike it's a lifestyle website!
So here's a few links to some choppers, if anybody feels like playing with any of these:
I'm trying to find pics with plain backgrounds so it's easier maybe to use for a logo.

Thanks again to all you creative types that are coming up with what will be an awesome logo!

Re: The board needs an icon
I think it needs to be this Friday. Here's Jolsens font with a chopper. Maybe he can do a cleaner version. Its hard for me without knowing what font he used but his font seems to be the consensus.

Nothing says we have to use it. Some people's children. Insert the new guideline Yo came up with here.98VS1400 wrote:Don't ruin a good icon you made with a stupid chopper!

Re: The board needs an icon
How about just the words Intruders (at the top) Alert (at the bottom) and the big red S in the middle where the bike is now? It's just a thought,

Or it could just say "The Other IA" Ok, all I'm doing is wasting time and electrons. I'm out of here until the voting starts.

Re: The board needs an icon
Why not just use the big red S as a back ground with Intruders at the top Alert at the bottom and WELCOME in the middle. This brain storming is giving me a headache.
