FanForce logo competition winner announced

Should there be an "out clause" in case you guys don't like any of the ideas...or at the very least, take the idea you like the best and work with it. I wouldn't want FF to be stuck with a logo that isn't gushed over with joy joy feelings just because it was the contest winning. Maybe it'll be a non-issue when some of the submissions start flowing in.

 

Great Idea. Unfortunately I have no artistic ability.

Too bad the members of Fanforce cannot vote on a favorite. I think it was great when the members of he collecting forum voted on the new banner.

 

Very good idea. I'll try to do something

 

This sounds fun - I think I'll give it a try!
Obi Anne, expect a pm coming in your direction in a moment

 

I didn't necessarily mean bad submissions, you could have great logos that just aren't right for the group..or at least, could use a little tweaking.

 

As a point of clarification, could someone please define what constitutes a "logo"? Are you looking for an emblem design, as in something graphic, like the Imperial or Rebel logos? Or are you looking for a typographic solution, as it a new design for the "FanForce.Net" text identity? Or are you looking for both? Also, in what form (approximate size, shape, and file size) should this be submitted? If you could just clarify the details of what it is you are looking for it would be very helpful.

 

So I'm assuming the design needs to incorporate the word "FanForce" as well as some kind of graphic element? And is this going to use limited colors, or the full range of colors?

Sorry for all the questions, but I just think it needs to be spelled out what elements should be part of the overall design, otherwise people may be designing logos which can't be used because they don't meet certain necessary criteria.

 

We're just looking for a logo - you can do just about anything you want, that's the idea.

Limited colours would be better due to printing costs, yes, but other than that it's whatever you think would look good and make a good t-shirt.

 

How many submissions are we aloud?

I have one ready...do I post here?

 

sure don't be afraid to show it to the world... and us ^_^

 

I say send as many submissions as you care to make. The more, the merrier.

 

ok

Heres my first idea:

and spruced up

lol...I like it, but at a quick glance it looks like an unhappy face.

 

LOL!

Someone else mentioned that to me!

Its just a first idea Maybe I can rotate it

 

I made one too

Of course, I can make one with less colors for printing on t-shirts

 

I don't know about the background on that (would be impossible to print), but I like how you added 'Join the Community' to it.

 

Very cool!!!



From my experience making the Fan Force banner, vector graphics programs are useful when submitting artwork for making banners and (possibly T-Shirts). I think it was Adobe something or other that we used, but I can't remember which one it was...

 

Illustrator.

 

That's the one.

 

Ok, this isn't the best thing I've done, but it struck me as something that could possibly be usable, if I put a little more something into it.

Ok, apologies/explanations follow afterwards, but here's the link:

http://www.geocities.com/karlholzer_3/jedi1.htm

Now to explain a few things:

First- the pic is big so bear with me.

Second- I'm not sure if a Jedi character I drew falls under "no Star Wars images." The image is kinda taken from my Jedi outfit and a pic I had of me...

Third- I'm not sure if the Jedi Code is a no-no (easily taken out if so).

Fourth- The lettering is bad, so that'll have to be changed.

Fifth- I drew this in about 10 minutes, hence no color/greyscale. And yes, I drew this and threw it under my scanner... Old school yo.

Sixth- Sorry about it being posted under geocities.

Seventh- This image would be on the back of a (probably black) shirt. The way I see it is make the image black and white and it will really stand out (as well as being cheap).

Don't laugh, I'm sensitive *sensitive sniff*. Heh, just kidding. Rip it apart if you have to, but constructive ideas are always good.

-K

 

Basically, no Star Wars includes no Jedi code and nothing recognisable as a Jedi, unfortunately.

You also need to remember that it's something that would have to look good and stand out on a range of things from t-shirts to websites, as we're likely to try and use it as much as we can.

 

I don't know about the background on that (would be impossible to print), but I like how you added 'Join the Community' to it
I can make one with black background (and without stars), and one with white background.

Here they are
