$25 Sports Logo

[udoubleu]

Type of Contest: 206sports.com Logo

Prize: $25 via Paypal

Contest End Date & Time: Friday, Feb 9, 2007 @ 9 PM PST

Size Requirements: Open

Color Requirements: Navy blueish colors if possible, or lighter shades of dark blue

General Requirements: Looking for a logo for 206sports.com, a web site that will cover Seattle's professional and college sports teams. I'm looking for more of a clean professional look (but still fun) rather than a real cartoony look. Also, feel free to incorporate Mt. Rainier and/or the Space Needle in the logo.


Many Thanks!

Thanks for your first batch of entrees. If possible, I'd like there to be more of a Seattle theme (space needle or mt. rainier perhaps) and major sports theme (football, basketball, baseball) to the logo.

Please PM me if you have any questions.

Re: 206 sports logo

umxca - This is definitely a big step in the right direction.

In general, I'd like the Space Needle and Mt. Rainier to look as realistic as possible. The Space Needle is close, but Mt. Rainier isn't.

Check out this link and look at the logo for an example of how the mountain was used - http://www.thenewstribune.com/

Also, the same goes for the sports figure outlines. They are not realistic enough right now, and I'm wondering if you might have some other ideas to incorporate the sports theme.

Thanks for your work!

hello, here's my idea, fb very welcomed, thank you!

 

[udoubleu]

blue-rain - I like the 206sports.com part a lot, but I'm not fond of the yellow or the generic football player logo. I think it may be best to not even have anything sports related in the logo.

Can we try the 206sports.com with the Space Needle and Mt. Rainier in the background? Maybe the Space Needle on the left and Mt. Rainier above the 206 part? Can anyone give this a try, sticking with a blue color scheme?

 

[blue-rain]

thanks for the feedback, ill get rid of the yello and try those changes, thanks!

hi again, here is a revision, comments welcomed, thanks!

 

[udoubleu]

blue-rain: Thanks for the update - we're getting closer. I like the realistic look of the mountain and the needle, but want them to be arranged a little differently. Maybe needle on left and mountain on right. Also I'm thinking an outline of the mountain in blue (above the 2006) and an outline of the needle in blue (somewhere above the 206 or sports.com) would be better. That way we can keep the background white.

Also, can we make the outline of the background a different color blue than the 206sports.com part? Make one shade a lighter blue, either the 206sports.com or the background outline.

Make sense?

THANKS!

[blue-rain]

mmm, i think i understand , ill make some arrangements, thanks for the feeback!

something like this?

 

[udoubleu]

Yes, that's very close to what I'm looking for! Can I see it with the background as a lighter color? Also, you can get rid of the little foothills to the left of the mountain.

I'm also interested to see how it'd look with 206sports.com all on one line rather than on two.

Thanks,

udoubleu

 

[blue-rain]

206sports.com logo

blue-rain: I like the color scheme of post #13 the best, but I like the way you cut out the foothills of the mountains on the more recent versions.

I have a couple other suggestions, hopefully you can bear with me. I just want to make sure I get exactly what I want and I appreciate your effort!

One thing I'd like to see is for you to remove the mountain, change the font to something non-cursive in sports.com, and make the Space Needle the T in the word "sports." It may be tricky getting it to work with the 206, but I'm really curious to see how it looks. You might have to put 206 and sports.com on one line to make it work.

Another suggestion: 206sports.com on one line and the Space Needle used as the T in the word "sports" and the mountain still in the background.

my attempt-

Feedback appreciated.

feedback

Can you use the space needle to create the T - it's okay if the t extends taller then the rest of the letters. Also, Mt. Rainier needs to be a bit more realistic like blue-rain's.

Thanks!
