We created a 'temporary' logo. Please comment or add suggestions. We'd like this to be a member effort!

Take one of Austin's pics and superimpose the first logo over it.  The second logo... eh... not feeling it.

Good idea, but he needs to get some up over here first! Smiley

Is it the spacing or the letters themselves? I'm kind of partial to the font itself.

I can read it but I see it hard for some to get what it says because of the block font. I wish I was good at making logos but I'm not...I would help play with it.

My input would be to try something more assimetric.  Something that would perhaps transparency, with some text already - in this case, the main menu - appearing from behind the title.

On that account the last one is terrible.  You can clearly see a rectangular "brick" supporting the letters - one can easily imagine it being done opening a square canvas on photoshop and inserting some letters.

That said, the one currently on display is my favorite.  It could have a little more transparency/3D into it, but it's nice and clean.  I like it.  The last one, the black/yellow brick is the complete opposite.


Have you try to move around the faq.org part around the CAR logo, maybe a little under the car logo, with a transparent red car up front?  I don't know really, don't ask me how to do it, have no idea.  Perhaps flash?

Oh, what do I know.  I'm just opinionated.  :-)

I like this one out of all the new ones:

http://idisk.mac.com/oahsan/Public//CARfaq/Administrative/Logo/Logo 080529-2.png faq.org  is transparent

And I think the background should follow suit with it...I like darker grey backgrounds. Much easier on the eyes.

I still think all of them are too linear.

Also I'm not sure about the lighting coming from the sides.  The whole page and buttons are going to follow suit, right?   Right now, the light comes from the bottom, only the very top is darker.  I would like to see the opposite, but I'm not so sure about the light source coming from the sides.  Maybe it works, I don't know.

I voted number 7.
