HamIsland Logo Search!

[W4GPL]

CQ Artists.. CQ Artists.. CQ Artist..

HamIsland is in search of a new logo! Contributions are welcome from everyone! Unfortunately the only compensation we can offer is our extreme gratitude and acknowledgement. :) Some requirements off the top of my head...

- Suitable for print & screen...
- Scalable for logo miniaturization or variants allowing that...
- Preferably in a format easily manipulated by Adobe Photoshop (.psd) or GIMP (.xcf) with unmerged layers.
- Creative Commons licensing or wiliness exclusively and indefinitely license to HamIsland...

I look forward to seeing what you all can come up with. Thanks guys!

Proportions? Dimensions? Must be X wide by X tall etc etc adnauseum and some french word.

"Very large" - "high resolution" -- etc. :)

I'd like to have the option to put it on tshirts, hats, coffee mugs, etc.. not for profit, but as a promotional tool at ham fests and what not. So that needs to be pretty big..

If not a single logo, several variants of the same theme.. I'd like to brand the site and have a very specific and unique look.

HamIsland - Amateur Radio's Online Revolution (keep that theme in mind)

I will get right on it! Whether I come up with anything useful is another story, but I will work on it.

As far as tee shirts et al, I have no problem with you taking a profit on them if the money goes to the site.

And I will guarantee you at least one sale on a mug, a tee shirt and anything else that your devious mind can contemplate. Carlo: You might think in terms of embroidery as well as print and electronic. Might make a nice design for a golf-style shirt or similar.

Let the game begin, say I. And may the best designer win.

Well, since you put the pot on the stove, let's see what cooks up.

I have a lot of experience in this business, having first set out on my journey a half-century ago.

The graphic could work, but including any sort of photograph in the logo will severely limit the applications to which it may be applied. I would suggest keeping a logo purely as a graphic -- it could be combined with a photo for those applications in which such use would be suitable.
