Quick touch-up to my existing logo - $40 *Project Over*

[stwilson]

(Admin code added by Palmer - N5324749)

I need a quick fix (I think) to my logo. I do not want to change the overall design of my logo but I do need to have the motorcycle and quad re-drawn, so they look more representative and realistic. You will see what I mean when you see my logo.

Here is my existing website (RidingArizona.com) logo. Riding Arizona is a website for dirtbikers and atv'ers who ride off-road trails in Arizona. The logo for Riding Arizona: http://ridingarizona.com/Riding_Arizona_Logo.gif

The concept behind the logo is that it looks like a trail sign. The font used on the logo is Futura, the font used on trail signs. I plan to use this logo on my website, printed materials and promotional goods (t-shirts), so I want the size to be fairly large and I will shrink it as needed.

Here are some images you can use to develop the profiles I am looking for:
(dirtbike) http://powersports.honda.com/motorcycles/m...odelId=CRF450R4 (http://powersports.honda.com/motorcycles/motocross/model.asp?ModelName=CRF450R&ModelYear=2004&ModelId=CRF450R4)
(quad) http://powersports.honda.com/atvs/sport/mo...odelId=TRX450R4 (http://powersports.honda.com/atvs/sport/model.asp?ModelName=TRX450R&ModelYear=2004&ModelId=TRX450R4)

I would like the dirtbike to be on the left and the quad on the right. Both should point towards the right. That's it. First one I really like wins. I would like a PSD file as the deliverable. Thanks.

Great. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with. :tup:

working at it too

Hi, here's mine:

[Goodhaus]

stwilson, here is a realistic-detailed approach, please advise and give feedback, thanks!

[Goodhaus]

here is an artistic profile look…

[stwilson]

Ok....I guess I failed at my description of what I want. The only changes I want to the logo are the creation of two new profiles, one for the bike and one for the quad. The profiles I have are: 1. the dirtbike looks like one from the 70s 2. the quad profile looks like a three wheeler, rather than a quad.

So, with that said I just want new profiles of the dirtbike and quad in all white. I just want to replace the two I have with new ones. If you use the photos from the Honda site, there are profiles in there for both dirtbikes and quads. Thanks.

Chris,

This is the closest to what I am looking for except the bike and quad need to be whited out. This is the closest thing I could find to show what I mean. Take a look here: http://www.trailexplorer.org/tew/trailDeta...tail.cfm?ID=551 (http://www.trailexplorer.org/tew/trailDetail.cfm?ID=551)

I am calling it whited out but maybe there is a designer term for it. Does that make sense?

[Goodhaus]

stwilson, here is the silhouette (designer's term) of the bike and quad. Is this more like it?

[stwilson]

GG,

For the quad, can you use the profile from this photo: http://powersports.honda.com/images/model/...R_medium_05.jpg (http://powersports.honda.com/images/model/c028_029_030_031_photos_all/atvs/2004/TRX450R/Medium/TRX450R_medium_05.jpg)

On the bike, can you remove the spokes and the wire running up the front of the bike BUT not the gas cap hose? Also, can you give a "little" more space between the front and the back of the bike and the edge of the area it is in? Just a little.

I'll be back in few min with my entry :)

[DesignGeneral]

here we go.

[DesignGeneral]

some small changes ...

[Goodhaus]

:o These are starting to look alike after awhile…removed the spokes and front brake cord and implemented the new quad as you requested.

[stwilson]

I will post better direction tonight. Basically, all I want redesigned are the dirtbike and quad, so do not bother drawing anything besides them. I will try to find some samples of what I like but I cannot remember where I saw it.

Here is something close but I do not want riders on the bikes: http://www.crashers.com/sticks/quad7.jpg

Like I said, I will do some research today and post up better direction tonight. I apologize for my inability to clearly describe what I am looking for.

[stwilson]

Maybe this will help. Here are two samples of the type of look I am looking for:

http://www.brmoffroad.com/QuadTweak.GIF
http://www.brmoffroad.com/sticker_CanCan.GIF

With that said. I am looking for both to face the right. I DO NOT want riders on the bikes. I would like for there to be only two colors, white and the brown background. I hope this helps.

[Goodhaus]

stwilson, created these with more detailed silhouettes. Please let me know if these are heading in the right direction or not. B)

[DesignGeneral]

working at it. I'll be back :)

[stwilson]

G)(G,

Now that's what I'm talking about!!! :D :tup: Let me stare at it for a few hours and I will reply tonight after work. I like it.

[stwilson]

G)(G,

On the dirtbike, can you reverse the colors on the things inside the wheels? make the white area brown and the thing inside the wheels white?

[Goodhaus]

stwilson, there we go!! ;)

[stwilson]

G)(G,

One last request and I think we have it. On the quad on the right, can you make everything from the first ring on the inside of the tire, to the square, brown. So that would mean the tire, brown, then the square thing in the middle. I want to remove some of that detail to make it match the dirtbike better. Also, can you make the One Trail At A Time TM black. That's it.

[DesignGeneral]

here is my revision.

Let me know if u want changes.

Thanks

[Goodhaus]

stwilson, think we got it…

[DesignGeneral]

stwilson,

[stwilson]

DG,

I like what you got. Let me touch base with my partner and post up our thoughts.

[Goodhaus]

stwilson, did you need any changes from my logo concept? Thanks!

[stwilson]

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you two on this contest. We have decided on the design by G)(G. I do need a few minor changes but the winner is G)(G. I will email the needed changes.

Palmer, please close this contest and award the winnings to Doug. DesignGeneral you are going to win one of my contests. I can feel it! :D Thank you for participating and please watch the boards as I am about to enter two new banner contests later this weekend.
