Anybody Wants To Come Up With A Logo I Can Get Them Made Up?

[hairba11]

we're pretty laid back, do you have any ideas?

[JEFF THE JET]

Somthing Like The Gateway Arch, Under The Arch Sits The Rockcrawler On The Rccrawler Logo With 'gateway Scale Rock Crawler Under All That?.......or A Crawler On The Side Of The Arch?

[hairba11]

probably not

^freaked me out a little^


I used this as my scale4x4 sig

[Nacho]

How about a crawler flexing on the arch...with the wording below :?:

I like it. using the arch as an articulation ramp. I'll look through my pics and see if anything would stand a little photoshopping

:edit:

You might want to keep it a little more simple than that. I think the sillouetted truck is the way to go. Something that can easily be made small without being to condensed. I like the Idea od the arch but maybe over the crawler not with the crawler on it. Just my .02!

[Nacho]

Wish i could photoshop..I was thinkin Crawler and Arch of the same size,just one wheel on it,not even all the way up..all in B/W

but im new here, dont listen to me ;-)

[hairba11]

try this on for size

At The March Gtg. I Cant Show Them Right Now So You'll Have To Wait Tell Then.:-p I Think We Can Get Shirts To .btw Do Any Of The 'local' Guys Have A 1/6 Nylint ? I Need One For My Son.

[Hawk Mortimer]

hairball, I like the Arch and the AX10, if only you could find an AX10 with the front wheel up. You done good hairball. ;-) Keep it up.

Wish I knew how to post pictures. Oh well, what is it they say bout old dogs and new tricks?

[Nacho]

I can take another pc of mine with the front flexed instead,if you guys would like.

[RCminded]

I don't mean to nit pick but I would make alot more simple and more generic.

[hairba11]

I would also, I was knocking those out for fun. To make a successful logo, you don't want grayscale, you need solid color so it can be cut out of a vinyl if you want.

Looking at the way the rccrawler logo looks, I could probably duplicate that using a photo, but it will be harder, and I'm busy. monday was columbia, tuesday was chicago and back, thursday I'm taking of for pennsylvania and new york.

nacho, go ahead and email me a photo of your truck articulating. give me a shot from the drivers side, with driver's front down and passenger front up. a front 3/4 veiw will work, but try and support the camera so it is fairly level (like you walked up to the real truck and took a pic instead of flying in from a helicopter)

[JEFF THE JET]

i'll show you guys at thr march gtg.it has the rccrawler truck under the arch ,it looks pretty cool . they are 1 color . i copied the jeep off of this site ?

[Nacho]

heres a lil flex....

Hey you guys dont have to use this at all, i was just trying to throw in a idea also,sorry if i stepped on any toes:neutral:

[JEFF THE JET]

YOUR NOT STEPING ON MY TOES. IM JUST COMPUTER STUPID SO ILL HAVE TO SHOW MINE IN PERSON:lol:

[hairba11]

that's fine, my computer keeps telling me I don't have enough memory to open photoshop.

[elvis]

I know all about not having enough memory.

[hairba11]

ok, what's the verdict on this one?
St louis skyline, delicate arch from utah in place of the stainless one, nacho's rig

[Mav-1981]

MT concern is copyright issues using a pic of a manufactured rig directly. I was thinking like what you have but change the whole pic to more of an outline. Like taking your hole pic you made (which is NICE by the way) and jsut doing the black outlines and base details on a white backround. This way it doesnt piss anyone off since there cant be any copyright complaints.

[JEFF THE JET]

IM HAPPY WITH MINE!:flipoff:

[max power]

I have one without the arch, but I like this one.

I'll work on a 2 color graphic.

I know I can get 2 or 3 color from my cousin's business for something like 250 decals/$80 I don't know how good a deal Jeff's friend can work.

I spent about 45min to and hour on the color, I figure another hour or so to go two color and be recognizable.
I'll play with it tonight

If somebody has a non stock rig we could use it, but I like using the AX10 specifically because of it's recognition factor. leaching from it's publicity to help our own.

[Nacho]

Maxx...I like that too!!

[Mav-1981]

I am going to play with mine too cause I gotta come up with a logo for the website.

Oh and since I secured us a URL now and working on the site, incorporate the website URL into the pics if possible. Everyone has a website, if ppl can read ours off the stickers, theres even more.

[hairba11]

Doing one color sucks
here went 45 minutes trying to make it look good


http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q217/hairba11/GSRClogocopy2truck.jpg


And another ten minutes to get this

http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q217/hairba11/GSRClogocopy3.jpg

[Nacho]

I think Maxx has a good design its simple and looks great...anyone else?

It does need the web addy on it somewhere tho

Maxx i saved that..hope you dont mind"thumbsup"

[Mav-1981]

HB,

THat is perfect for a sticker for the Vehicles, now between yours and Maxx's we have 2 to choose from cause they are both perfect to me. Thats what I wanted if I was to put one on. I was thinking that maybe some way of each person having those made but with a pic of their own crawler in place of the AX10, could be an option for those who want it. Personally I am good with what you guys have, basic, cant get in trouble for it, and looks GOOD.

I am up for those 2, BOTH OPTIONS, now if you guys can squeeze "www.STLScaleRC.com" into the bottom of those, we're good as far as I am concerned

[hairba11]

I had thought of using one of my own, but the only one I have pictures of looks like a '41 willys. not very identifiable by silouete like a truck is.

you were worried about tademark infringement on the AX10, what about from Subaru for the brat, or Ford from the bronco? I could use a pic of my little tuber seeing as it actually has panels on it.

all I need to squeeze would be the www. the rest is there under the arch.

[Mav-1981]

My concern was the colored picture because of its identity was obvious, the black and white leaves it more open cause then it isnt obviously a AX10. I have my small company and learned to tread really carefully otherwise someone will freak out. Plus then you get guys like in here that have nothing better to do than say "your breaking copyright laws" just cause they need to get a life. Its crap I try to avoid.

[JEFF THE JET]

IVE HAD MINE ON MY BLAZER FOR A MONTH AND NO ONE HAS SAID ANY THING TO ME!!!! IN FACT I HAVE GAVE 4 AWAY AND SOLD 6 TO MY FREINDS ....AND THEY AINT IN THE CLUB. ID SAY JUST DO IT ALREADY!!! JUST CARRY A RAZOR BLADE WITH YOU. IN CASE YOU HAVE TO SHAVE IT OFF. IF FORD WANTED TO SUE ME OVER PUTING THAT ON MY BLAZER .....I WOULD TELL THEM THATS FINE... IT LOWERED THE VALUE OF A GOOD BLAZER.LOL"thumbsup"

[hairba11]

I had thought about having the truck articulating on something curvy and soft instead of jagged and rough, but figured we wouldn't want to offend people.

it would have distracted from the make of the truck anyway.....

even on the coloered truck, the axial green is gone, the axle is fairly unidentifiable, only the betty body stands out.

heck, I'll just email axial and ask 'em.

:edit:

to: service@axialracing.com

I made a logo for our local rc crawling club and used a photo of one of the guy's trucks which happens to be one of your trucks.

Is this ok, or is there some copyright I need to be wary of?

The city of st. Louis shouldn't have a problem, nor should the Delicate Arch in Utah, but I wanted to check with your company before publishing this logo on a webpage.

Thank you in advance for your reply.

[max power]

Kinda the same only with some "old school" at the bottom:lol:

[hairba11]

Looks good max, but the web addy is hard to read. try putting "scale" and "rock" on the same line, bumping up the arch and brushtruck and leaving the website black on white, or at least letters on white.

[max power]

Just messing around with it......

[Nacho]

Max...that last one is bad AZZ!!

[hairba11]

Got my reply from axial with regard to my logo:

Hi Tim,



Thanks for getting in contact with us.



No issues with using the photo of the truck you used. Since you are not using one of our photos or our logo you are all good to go on our side.



Thanks,

Matt

[Nacho]

thats good people right there "thumbsup"

[Mav-1981]

sweet, nice going tim.

[hairba11]

I figure even if we don't make decals of it, it could work for a header for the website.

[Mav-1981]

Here's my vote:

Maxx's second one with the name changed to one line accross the top for the website

Hairball: YOURS IS THE MEMBERS STICKERS FOR THE RIDES. They work great for a quick look, see who we are and what were about all in a split second.

Ok there is my 2 cents (I know its worth about that much too, lol)

EVERYONE ELSE HAS TO VOTE ON THIS so post up.

X2 goood work guys

[hairba11]

full color version, or 2 color?

was the 2 color good colors to use?

blue/white v. yellow/black v. plaid/paisley?

[Mav-1981]

I liked it just like you had it. Full color is going to fade by July, and I like the blue cause everyone else uses black or red for bumper stickers. I like the idea of being unique as possible.
