Administrators Nabeel Posted March 30, 2010 Administrators Report Posted March 30, 2010 So I'm trying to do a little update on the site design, but I'm horrible with logos. Anyone want to take a spin on the current logo design and 'spruce' it up a bit? Quote
Administrators simpilot Posted March 30, 2010 Administrators Report Posted March 30, 2010 Just messing around... Quote
Administrators Nabeel Posted March 30, 2010 Author Administrators Report Posted March 30, 2010 Just messing around... That actually looks almost exactly like and old one I did! Quote
Administrators simpilot Posted March 30, 2010 Administrators Report Posted March 30, 2010 sry - thought you would waant to keep with the basic colors and design.... Quote
Administrators Nabeel Posted March 30, 2010 Author Administrators Report Posted March 30, 2010 sry - thought you would waant to keep with the basic colors and design.... Oh, I do, sorry, came across wrong.. A little more "Web 2.0 ish" Quote
stuartpb Posted March 30, 2010 Report Posted March 30, 2010 I've been messing round too, here's my feeble attempt Quote
Administrators simpilot Posted March 30, 2010 Administrators Report Posted March 30, 2010 Nice! Quote
stuartpb Posted March 30, 2010 Report Posted March 30, 2010 Thanks Just been messing round with it some more, here's v2: Quote
Kieran Posted March 30, 2010 Report Posted March 30, 2010 Bevels and Embosses are very very very web 1.0, For web 2.0 you need smooth gradients, drop shadows that are close to the object, and thin(ish) text. Light blues and greys look clean and have been adopted by many web 2.0 sites, such as Facebook. I'll see what I can do to help out. Quote
Administrators Nabeel Posted March 31, 2010 Author Administrators Report Posted March 31, 2010 I like that idea though Quote

Light blues and greys look clean and have been adopted by many web 2.0 sites, such as Facebook. I'll see what I can do to help out. I was just messing around with photoshop. Also, why go with something that others have, isn't the idea of design to create new concepts? Also, call me old skool, but I find alot of the "Web 2.0" logos very boring, and very much alike, both in fonts used and in effects. I much prefer something that isn't too busy, but will stand out. That's my own personal feelings anyways Quote
Kieran Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Web 2.0 has simplicity and professionalism at it's heart, just because you're going web 2.0, doesn't mean a logo has to be boring. Often, the simplicity can sort of make you blend in a bit more, but with extra care, that need not happen. I am aware that these designs are just samples, just pointing everyone in the web 2.0 direction. Quote
Administrators Nabeel Posted March 31, 2010 Author Administrators Report Posted March 31, 2010 That ones cool! I like the NY NY touch Quote
stuartpb Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 I really like both of yours Simpilot and Olbi. Very cool Looks like you are going to have some fun picking by the time everyone has added theirs Nabeel Quote
stuartpb Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Here's another hash of my idea (More Web 2.0 methinks ) I'm enjoying messing round here Quote
Kieran Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Now that one does look nice. I'll open up photoshop soon Quote
stuartpb Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Come on now, you can't keep us in suspense!! I am dying to see your work now Quote
Tom Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Come on now, you can't keep us in suspense!! I am dying to see your work now Like yours a lot stuart. Quote
Administrators Nabeel Posted March 31, 2010 Author Administrators Report Posted March 31, 2010 Here's another hash of my idea (More Web 2.0 methinks ) I'm enjoying messing round here I like it! Needs a sexier font though, but I definitely like the plane Quote
Kieran Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Hey stuart, I know this is kinda cheating, but since nabeel likes it: Could I borrow that plane ;P? Quote
stuartpb Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 @ Kieran, do you think Coke would be happy with Pepsi using their brand? @ Nabeel, I can send you the Photoshop file, and you can play around with fonts if you like, or if you have one in mind I can use it no probs. Glad you like it by the way. 4 Quote
Administrators simpilot Posted March 31, 2010 Administrators Report Posted March 31, 2010 @ Kieran, do you think Coke would be happy with Pepsi using their brand? I think I just soiled myself.... some points for you my friend Quote
Kieran Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 @ Kieran, do you think Coke would be happy with Pepsi using their brand? It's not a competition, It's working together to produce a nicer logo. Isn't fundamental though. Quote
stuartpb Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Have to say, thanks but no thanks I feel slightly cheated here, as I was really looking forward to seeing something original from you Kieran. Quote
Administrators Nabeel Posted March 31, 2010 Author Administrators Report Posted March 31, 2010 @ Nabeel, I can send you the Photoshop file, and you can play around with fonts if you like, or if you have one in mind I can use it no probs. Glad you like it by the way. Can you export to Fireworks png format? You can PM it to me Quote
