I do as well. These aren't final, we have to pick one to build upon/change/etc

I like the first one.

i like the idea of the first one too, only because i dont really care for the "Evil-M" emblem

First one. I like the fangs, but, i prefer the one with the "future" of Mazda in it.

+1 also the latter two use a font that would get is sued in a heartbeat. The whole all caps shouty text is kinda.. I dunno. I just can't picture it as a decal flowing well

The first logo, if used as the logo on the site, would have to lose the car design as it stands.. it would have to be shrunk down tiny to fit < 75px tall.

Chris, should I give the reigns to you on design? I'd like it that way, seems you know more what we want :)

Rick @ Spaz Chicken is the designer.

Well I dislike the evil-m and the furai sketch, but the first looks better.

Hey, Pedobear is very much a part of this forum. Probably more so than the Furai lol!!

But yea, back on topic I do like the design of the first one but maybe use the font from the second design?

shall I mention how use of the mazda font will at the very least get us a cease and desist from Mazda North America?

I guess im the only one who likes the 3rd one . I would like to see the 3rd in a decal over all but for the site the first one is nice to .

+1 - good call :)

I'd say the 1st - car design. unless.. the car is 'interchangeable' - P5/Sedan/RX/3/6/etc.

That could be interesting. Like how currently when you refresh the page the banner periodically changes what cars are behind it. Make a few like that where the text stays the same, but the top drawing changes.

the first one does look pretty sweet, but the i love the Evil M, what about adding the m to car?? lol. Plus i think it would pretty sweet to associate the Evil M with the forum. Something different, everyone uses a car in there logo.

#2 is awsome.

Number one....I definitely love the text on the top one...I think a stylized version of a Mazda model we recognize would be more effective, but I dig the look of the concept car on top...forget the actual name of it tho...

I don't like the "M" images....

CrashKelly
06-17-2008, 03:48 PM
No offense Pat...but I don't really like any of them...Mostly because of the colors...I know that it matches the current forum color scheme, but I just dont dig it (on the logo or the current set-up). I kinda like the 1st design with the outline of the furai concept...but not many people are going to recognize that...Sorry bud, I wish I could have more creative input, but I just know that none of those really do it for me.

I like the top one the most. Too bad we can't use the Mazda font. Not sure about yellow and blue though I know that's the site colors. Perhaps offer a couple of different color options: red, black, silver, orange (for me!).

kansei
06-17-2008, 04:35 PM
it's very much orange not yellow :)

I'll go with the 1st design.

SpooledupRacing
06-18-2008, 06:31 AM
I never heard of the car in the 1st one.. and I'm a mazda guy... thats why I think the 1st one should not be because nobody is going to recognise it and know what it is.

SpooledupRacing
06-18-2008, 06:34 AM
I think the first one is to busy...

the 3rd one is the design is to small

the 2nd one is the best but IMO I think it is to pale and I'm not sure if I like that one either...

I'm not a fan of any of them. I know I'll be in the minority on this one, but I just think that they go against the simplistic nature that we strive for here. I like the furai line drawing (as a separate entity in and of itself), but the font is terrible. Again, this is just my opinion. Sometimes the best designs are the simplest.

THANK YOU

we're definitely in the minority but I feel like while some of these designs would look good on t-shirts or a big banner, as a web site logo they fail..

someone listen to this guy (not me), he does web design and graphic design stuff. I'm not trying to say my design is superior (with the cars in the background it can be a bit busy, but that wasn't my idea) but I just like simple :)

I like the first and second one. The first one would be great on the back of a shirt and the evil M would be great on the left side of the chest, so would the furai concept too.

I like option 1.

I'm not a big fan of the "Angry-M" or w/e it's called.

Just need to work on the car outline for the first option - I like where the idea is headed though
