Inspiration 1000NP

I have been coding in PhP for the past month and have totally shot my design cells and need a bit of inspiration to get me back on track. I am in need of a creative idea for a new logo for my upcoming directory for the go karting community. My finalized version will not be a strict rnderance of any pulled directly from here, unless one just blows my mind, but rather an inspiration to get me going headed in the right direction. I still have some heavy PhP coding I need to finish but would like to begin work on the logo next. I will not be posting specifics about the actual url or the domain name in this thread because I do not want it to get sniffed by the SE's yet but if you check out my profile: view my Real Name and this will be the basis of the logo. Please remember the subject matter is kart related so it should stay in line with either the name or the industry. I will allow for this thread to remain open for no more then 48 hours so please submit all entries prior to this expiration so I may award a winner promptly. Thanks again and I will give a sneak peak of the modified and final version I create of the logo to the designer that wins over my inspiration. Back to PhP I go.....yuck!

P.S. Pls watermark your images. I don't want there to be any doubts

Cool I look forward to the fresh logo. I have increased the np to a cool grand and have extended to another 48 hour window for all interested parties. Should I find some inspiration that will get me going in the right direction then the NP are yours for the taking. Good luck to all and look forward to the artwork.

Nice logo but I don't think that is the direction I am looking to take with the logo. I would like to some how utilize the prime key words in the actual name within the logo....I just have not had time to figure out how to make the two meet smoothly...a kart and a corner......

 

[aznchong91]

a kart driving around a corner? :D

 

[TStewartFan]

Well thanks for the help you guys but I went ahead and spent a couple of hrs creating my own logo......its still needs a bit of tweaking but here it is:

Thanks again.

to be honest, I don't really like that logo, no offence, not that I would be qualified to criticise your work. Nevertheless, I just want to give my opinion.The font is too bubbly, IMHO, and doesn't fit the theme. Kart's are not bubbly. Also, I'm not sure about the spike at the end of the corner turn. Just my thoughts, don't get mad...

 

[TStewartFan]

Well thats all good....after seeing yours I knew I could throw something together that would atleast be half way presenatable for display. Like I said I have a bit tweaking to do but based off the one you did....you are right....you aren't qualified to critisize....fyi karts are very curvy....and if you don't know that then I don't even know why you threw your two cents in......

 

[aznchong91]

that's ok. I guess you don't like criticism or suggestions in any form. I'm sorry, i guess I'm just too eager to help.

No I enjoy critisism but what you provided with the exception of the spike (which was just a quick version of a future half arrow) had no critique whatsoever....I have the karting community to provide critizue on the logo because while they may not be designers they at least know the industry. I was merely posting it here to inform anyone that may have been interested that I already came up with something to get me going in the right direction.
