Logo/t-shirt ideas!!

[brok3n]

Okay folks, I'd like user submissions for designs on how the logo/t-shirts might look like, and then when I get some ideas I can make a pole and we can vote on it.

DO IT UP.

[stephanie is a rockstar]

I like white shirts! maybe with a green logo, or yellow.

make sure you offer ladies sizes too considering there are lots o' ladies on here :)

as for the logo... pfft, I'm clueless

[UnLuckyAlice13]

I think it should be a picture of Mr Puff drifting in his box race care :lawl:

[Detroit Style]

Done.

I think the backround behind detroit driven should be the outline of michigan or something in detroit for ex: ren cen. something along those lines

[UnLuckyAlice13]

I like this one :D

i don't know... considering none of us technically live in Detroit.

The Tuning factory (when they were around) had a neat logo for one of their shirts. I get compliments on it whenever I where it. the logo is on the bottom side of the T in like a splash looking design and the website name was on the other side at the bottom.

You could just have DD on the front with detroitdriven.com underneath.

Just throwing some out there

Ok bud! :leghump: lol

[-Kevo-]

I'd love to get in on this. Anyone have any design 'themes' ? Urban/grunge, combinations? etc. I can whip up several logos pretty quickly. This would be a fun one. I think play on negative & postive spaces/letters would be a good direction for this logo. Also, what hass more emphasis, 'Detroit' or 'Driven' ?

I'll have some concepts this weekend.

[tt300zxFREAK]

I have yet to see any renderings! :tantrum:

[-Kevo-]

Working on a few now. Never got online over the weekend.

[isawred41]

White or black shirts would work...

I would love to see a shirt that just says: "cup-o-soup"

[isawred41]

OR

Detroit Driven
La Resistance!

[isawred41]

Ffor everyone that hates us and who is revolting against us!

[MDavey]

or it could say 89questqueer on it

[isawred41]

no to the cup-o-soup

[isawred41]

no to the cup-o-soup

Why you mean?

[tt300zxFREAK]

Why you mean?

Cup-o-soup is RATARDED

[isawred41]

Cup-o-soup is RATARDED

Well back in the old days when you typed in dertoitdriven.com all you got was "cup-o-soup"

[stephanie is a rockstar]

i'd rock a Cup-o-Soup? tee-shirt!

then underneff it say detroitdriven.com

a white tee wiff green lettering!

[-Kevo-]

I am uploading a few logo ideas as I type....

I think the direction and concept of the website should be discussed before picking a slogan... cup-o-soup? what does that have to do with detroitdriven.com ?

back in the day when detroit driven was young if you typed in detroitdriven.com it would just say cup-o-soup?

All vector logos. No PS scribble.

Yeah I remember that...but again...what was the point? lack of content...

cuz its fun :shrug:

[MDavey]

I like A, D, E.

Not a fan of the B, C font

[-Kevo-]

D, E, F are my favorites too. Good contrast, easier to read and better over all use across all media (shirts, banners, web, etc.).

[MDavey]

oops ya I meant F too.

A, F are my top choices

[tt300zxFREAK]

Any of D,E, and F work for me

[MDavey]

How do you make splashes like that. I've always wanted to do that

[-Kevo-]

vectorize splash/scrape marks or other high contrast images, etc. Sometimes draw parts with the pen tool where I feel it's needed or combine several together.

I think E & F are my top choices. E & F are essentially the same logo, just different orientation depending on what the logo is being used for. With E being the primary choice where applicable. That's my thought anyway.

[tt300zxFREAK]

Can you do a rendering of A with an old english D? Also maybe the entire Detroit in old english and leave driven the way it is. I think that would look sick!

[-Kevo-]

Stand by...

[-Kevo-]

http://www.insomniagd.com/proofs/detroitdrivenlogos2.jpg

Not feeling it. E, F still look the best to me from every aspect.

[tt300zxFREAK]

Your right E and F are still the best. If I had to pick one I'd go with F

[-Kevo-]

I would consider E & F part of the same package. One is vertical and one horizontal orientation depending on application. like F would be nice on a t-shirt, E for decals or web uses, etc.

[tt300zxFREAK]

Hmm yes I like the idea

[Turn8]

i like F it looks like the detroit news

[-Kevo-]

Never even thought of the free press lol they're font is similar, but not the same as F.
Here is logo F revised show both orientations depending on how we want to use it.

http://www.insomniagd.com/proofs/detroitdrivenlogoF.jpg

[Turn8]

i like both of em

[tt300zxFREAK]

Definitely use F for shirts

[-Kevo-]

The image above IS the same logo. they are both F. So if that is the logo chosen, then the vertical would be for shirts, as mentioned. horizontal where ever else needed, etc.

[MDavey]

Yep those look good! You are the man

[tt300zxFREAK]

I should have specified the vertical one for shirts. But ya it looks great.

[stephanie is a rockstar]

ME likes A & F

[-Kevo-]

then you'll like these....


http://www.insomniagd.com/proofs/detroitdrivenshirtsA.jpg

My original idea is to have these on the back of the shirts, not the front as shown.

or both, have a smaller vertical logo on the front, and the horizontal logo rotated 90deg as shown on the back.... the possibilities...

[tt300zxFREAK]

The 3 in the 1st row are the best. I like the ends, the grey with black writing is the best and black with white is cool to.

[stephanie is a rockstar]

i like logos on the front, but then again I like people to look at me

[-Kevo-]

The 3 in the 1st row are the best. I like the ends, the grey with black writing is the best and black with white is cool to.

A 1-color print is also the least expensive route to go. gray and black look good. Either way ya go, a qty of 40 shirts or higher is usually the most cost effective. 10 shirts is about the same price as 40.

I like black shirts personally. I think you should make a new thread with a poll to pick the color of shirt & layout for the first run anyway.

[Turn8]

black!

[MDavey]

those are hot

[stephanie is a rockstar]

ugh black is lame since I never wear black. I like white wirh color logo!!!

COLOR!

Remember there are ladies here! ladies like color!

[UnLuckyAlice13]

fuck you guys, Im making cup o soup shirts with puffy paint!!! :willynilly: and I'll make the murder mitten holding the gun....WITH PUFFY PAINT!!! :rofl:

[UnLuckyAlice13]

ugh black is lame since I never wear black. I like white wirh color logo!!!

COLOR!

Remember there are ladies here! ladies like color!

I like purrrrple :suspect:

[Turn8]

cuposoup shirts isnt even that good of an inside joke, since only 12 people know about it

[brok3n]

come on people, cup-o-soup is when someone shovels a fart in your face... IE, people who didn't know where the forums were were getting our farts in their nose.

THATS THE GENIUS BEHIND IT.

Kev, love the logos. Do you guys do t-shirts there at the sign place also?

[-Kevo-]

Not usually. Because screen printing is done in bulk and very low mark-up. Best bet is to find a local Printer or an online Printer. Most companies where you'd upload the design have a minimum of 40 shirts. If it's lower, the price is still about the same for 10 or 40 shirts. This is per run. Some places charge less for re-orders. Not sure what your plans are for shirts, (sell, give to members, etc.) but someone has to drop the bank to get a batch made. I am sure people would buy if cool designs/colors.

[tt300zxFREAK]

Most definitely! This must be looked into

[a2vr4]

I would deff rock either the gray or black with the "F" design, I also kinda liked the two tone black/purple logo (nohomo) :shrugs:

[a2vr4]

any progress?

[-Kevo-]

No one has even asked me for the *free* vector logo files...

[tt300zxFREAK]

Can we have the *free* vector logo files?

[Turn8]

/\ do you have a hookup for shirts?

[-Kevo-]

Yes you may. I didn't before but I have since learned of a great local screen printer (wholesale only) so I can get some base pricing for small runs.

[blue2forty]

do the murder mitten. do it. dont fuck around.


oh yeah i was a year late for this one!
