Certificate/Award for Green Star Shop *Project Over*

[slh]

(Admin code added by Palmer - 6822945)

QUICK DEADLINE: Thursday, February 26, 2004
Winner will be selected Thursday night
Prize: $65.00

Size: 11" x 8-1/2" (landscape orientation)

This is a certificate that will be awarded to automotive service facilities that have achieved a certain level of standards to be an "environmentally friendly" service facility. A Green Star Facility is environmentally sound, including recycling and safely disposing of waste products.

These awards will be printed on a color laser printer (therefore no bleeds) and then framed. We need to be able to add the facility name and award date to the certificate design.

Actual Title of Award: "Green Star Service Facility"

Presented by the Automotive Service Association of Missouri / Kansas (ASA logo with "Missouri / Kansas" under logo)

Design Concept: I am envisioning something with "green" as the main color (I was really stretching my creativity on picking that color!!). The design doesn't have to be automotive related. I am more concerned that it represents eco-friendly and professional.

Format: Adobe Illustrator

DesignGeneral and Dynagirl . . . thank you for your submissions. Here are a couple of comments:


DesignGeneral - As stated above, I need a professional design/layout that isn't "cartoonish". Would also prefer less green.

Dynagirl - Good professional appearance. No bleeds possible. Also would recommend changing the graphics on each side of the ASA logo to perhaps a recycling logo or something less feminine. Less focus on the ASA logo and more focus on Green Star Service Facility. Great overall concept.

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!

[DesignGeneral]

working on revision... I'll be back in few min :)


.................


back,

Let me know if this is in the right direction.

Thanks

DesignGeneral - closer. Several comments: font is too feminine for the "Green Star" wording; less focus on the ASA logo and more on the Green Star Service Facility. Can you try a different star?

Thanks!

[DesignGeneral]

sure. I'll be back in few min :)

[DesignGeneral]

and different color background...

[DesignGeneral]

another option

[Waxwing]

This is my first admission..

[Waxwing]

Maybe we should see it a little larger.

[DesignGeneral]

some feedback will be appreciated. Thanks :)

Waxwing: nice professional layout. I like the incorporation of the yellow to break up the green. Can you do two things: make the ASA logo narrower - it is too long and narrow. 2nd - try a different font for the Green Star Service Facility title.

DesignGeneral: design not quite what I am looking for.

[DesignGeneral]

working on more ideas ...

[DesignGeneral]

what about this?

[Waxwing]

Whew... I am not home at night so I am late.

[DesignGeneral]

Please let me know if you like my last idea... I can modify it now if you have revisions at it.

Thanks

:tup: we have a winner . . . WaxWing. Only change is to round the car tires just a bit. I prefer the first option for the font, but the last revision with regards to the ASA logo. Please submit either an AI or EPS file to sheri(AT)asamokan.org

Great job.
Thanks!

[Michael]

Congrats Waxwing :tup:

I won't bother moving to the Revisions forum seeing its only a minor change.

[Waxwing]

I'm on it this morning!!
Thanks!
