diyAudio Logo Competition Draft Entries

No, just a single one that will serve all purposes. Jan's one could have any background in place of the white around the edges and would not be adversely effected.

By background I meant the blue thing in the back of Jan's logo

[Wardsweb]

and again

Wardsweb, nice mascot But isn't it copirighted? (it's an office clipart, no?)

And give him some headphones, and a soldering iron instead of the pen

You may use the images for illustrative or decorative purposes as long as the publication is not for sale or the main content, i.e. you can not sell a book showing the different characters. In another way, if you removed the charaters, would the site still stand on it's own. I guess to be on the safe side and to avoid any confusion, I'll scrape this idea.

If I have time, I'll work on some others. I have lots of ideas, but, am busy with a massive art project that's eating up most of my time.

just getting to grips with Illustrator....

It can obviously be made transparent..but won't look good on the diyaudio background because of the same colours...

Edit : Not anywhere near competition quality. But the message or question is...how about using a lot of our current colours for instant recognition (look and feel)...ok I admit the font detracts again.

PS...I think it is time people got critical about the designs...everyone seems afraid to criticize the one design or the other...c'mon lets hammer each other like we do with each others diy projects. I mean I am sure there are objective standards, like recognition, font suitable for print and screen, colours...etc, etc.

Personally I'm not to keen on red in the logo..I do like Jeff Wong's strong box enclosed logo though...HATE the transistor , but like the soldering iron...it is pretty much a standard tool, be you into tubes, speakers or chip amps.


Cheers,

Here's a quick modification to be more inclusive:

Perhaps of interest for a laugh anyway... the prior two logo designs...

Just to make it clear...I have no say in what the logo should look like. Everything is purely my own opinion, as a diyAudio member.
