POLL: Team name for NE

Okay, so here's the deal: Click the link below to enter the poll area and choose wisely...if you have any questions, feel free to continue the discussion here in this thread. If we reach a concensus, we'll begin working on a design and then move to production. Thanks!

Should our group bear the name "Custom Concepts?"

You bastage! I was replying to the last thread when you locked it. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] And the majority (if not all) that are still in it have already voted for Custom Concept. We just need to vote on the design..which I was trying to post. Unlock the other thread so we can finish up there. There's no point in having 2 threads for the same purpose.

Hush! For crying out loud that thread was too long anyhow...post what you want here - This is the final stage. All the proper variations can go here for the design, and people that answer the poll can reply here to confirm. This way we don't get confused or anything...

Allright, I voted yes. I can't come up with anything better and it's not the name that makes the team. It's the team itself. We'll make the name mean something.

I like this font.....of course, it would be on a clear background on the actual sticker. And I agree with Michal....I cant come up with anything better, so CC it is....

PbFoot: That's pretty good. Although maybe the ustom and oncepts are too small? Maybe extend the C out sideways and increase the font size? I'm likin' the concept though. Oh ****, did I just a part of the team name in a sentence!? It's taking over my sentence structure! [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

So here at the designs we are voting on..

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

I vote for either 1 or 5. And remember, we are gonna need something that will look good on the car, and not just on paper. Also vote on color as well. I want white and/or a light silver.

And someone's gonna have to email silentrage for me. My email is down at the moment (MeeeeHowwww). Let him know you're following up on my emails and ask him...

The costs for different colors.

If its possible for him to make different designs. (If we dont come up with 1 design we want, why not just choose the one we do want. We'll have different names but same name so it should be ok.)

Also ask him how he makes them. Does he just make a copy of what we send him exactly? Or does he doctor it up a bit to make it look clean and crisp?

I'm voting 5 because 1 looks a little more difficult to produce...that translates to higher cost to us [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

If you make the serif on the white 'C' a little smaller on 5, I think that'll work nicely...very clean...

I like #2 so far. Let's not rush this though. This is a thread to vote on the name. Some people are still sketchy on that. Let's wait until everyone that's in is happy with that name. Then let's make more logo's.

I only did contrasting colors for visibility. I supposed you could move the custom concepts to the left a little bit if you want it all the same color, probably be easier as well. I posted mine only because I saw nobody playing with numbers like C squared or something to that effect

Hey, that's a good idea. C squared. It's short and it's better as a logo.

thanx duuuuuuuuude...serif?? hows that in english? lol....you mean just make the font smaller? so you mean have the 2 big "C"s be different sizes?? i can make the "ustom" and "oncepts" be the same size...but if i make the "oncepts" any bigger it wont fit in the "C"...

what if i move the "oncepts" to the top of the white "C" so that its right under the "ustom"??? would that look better? im at work right now so i cant play with it...but ill post a second draft when i get home...
thanks tho...

and as far as silent rage, they can touch up the design so that it looks cleaner...i mean in general. i think Roy is the designer. they do great work!!! so even if we can only come up with a rough draft of a design, they can finish it off it need be.

The prices given were based off of that design.

We already voted on the last thread, which is why I saw no point to this new thread. CC has had the most positive feedback and I dont think there has been any recent 'entries' thats shown the same reponse. Until we get an awesome suggestion, it seems like CC.

I like that one too!

PbFoot: What I meant to say was that... Extend the horizontal parts of the C so that there's more room to make the "ustom" and "oncepts" a little bigger. They're just kinda small in relation to the C.

ok...just got home...and made a slight change to the design...what do you think?
changed the color to grey also since thats what you guys said was the desired color...this is the updated version on black and white...



i see what youre saying grey, ill try it, but its gonna make the "C"s look kinda not so good i think....

I beleive that would be "D-Dawg Speak" for: Now this **** is off the hook, for real, my *****s.

[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] Sorry, couldent resist. I kinda like that design too....different fonts though, and has to be tweaked a bit.....If we send in OUR pics to be used for the sticker, i'm pretty sure it's gonna have to be a high DPI file....like say, 288 DPI....instead of the 72 we are working in now. Otherwise it's gonna look like crap. It's either gotta be some kind of logo (the C-Squared thing) or one line of text I think. Two lines of text might look kind of weird.....unbalanced. I like the double C design, but I dont think it's a practical sticker, unless of course we arent going for the transparent look with just the text visible.....

This ones pretty hot.



It would be sweet if we can get it so the grey is the only part of the sticker (the black is the actual glass). Else the white would be fine.

I just realized where I work has a custom sign shop for advertising.....i'll ask around and see if it would be possible for me to get stickers made.....i'll also check audiolink....I know they make stickers.

And yeah, that gray double C one would be cool if we could get just that with no background. I wonder if thats more expensive? Then again, I kinda like the idea of one line, like the 7thgen.com stickers.
