If any of you fine people out there have any ideas on something you would like to see used for a club logo please post a drawing or pic of it or them here. I know Jaymait had a person working on something a while back and Ryan has some good ideas. This is open for one and all to help out with.
Thanks.
 
Work has been slow so I had some time to make some logos. These are just black and white but can be printed in any color. Fonts, Colors, and artwork can be moved and tweaked. Please if you like these or have any ideas on how to make them better, I am all ears.

Those look good Ryan!!! I like the lower right one the best! :) I would change the periods to stars like the one to left of it.

I like both the lower right and left. I like the way the STARS curves in the lower left one and the way the words fit under it better than the other one to the right. JMO they are both nice. Good work Ryan, thanks.
 
Those are pretty cool. I agree with everyone else, lower right looks best but maybe use the fonts from lower left.

Thanks for the ideas Ryan. In the long run I think there will be many STARS logos so keep the images coming everyone...
 
Hey Jay I guess I don't see a point in having more than one STARS logo. If we set something up and stick with it then that is what becomes known as STARS and people are not cornfused everytime they see a different logo. JMO like always am willing to learn your thoughts my friend. I sure wish you would come take me golfing.
 
Well my theory is different logos work for different things. Banners for example may contain elaborate multi color logos, logos for t-shirts may look different for logos for embroidered shirts, business cards, stickers, etc..

Also I have been in contact with a web developer from NMSU that took an interest in the tank and sought me out. I directed him to the club site and explained it is a works in progress. He displayed an interest in helping us develop the website further. In fact I just received another email today that said if we give him the go he will help us out and is anxious to do it. So maybe if we can hash out one of Ryan's logos here pretty quick I can work with Stephen to get us a nice looking site started.

Let me know what you guys think.

John- when I get back, we golf.....
 
Jay, when you say a nice looking site I wonder what that means and what it will have on it. I think we already have a nice looking site going, not going to say it couldn't use some work but it is ok for a start. And we all very much than Daniel for all the work that he has put into it.
 
Im not saying we don't and yes Daniel has done quite a bit for us and getting the site started, Im not discrediting him for that or anyone for that matter. I and others, including yourself, have showed an interest in developing the site further and making links and tabs to make everything more user friendly. We also need to make things easy, and assign a person, to keep the site updated with current club info. I am just trying to make these things happen and someone has offered their services. Just putting it out there.
 
Ok, here is my two cents....I believe that we should have one main logo for the club. I agree that banners and other items would benefit from additional graphics and colors, but I think the main logo should be present at least. As for the website, I have received the email from Daniel containing the website file. Specific software is required just to open the file and of course they cost money. I am downloading a free trial of Corel Draw Graphics Suite XS, but I'm not even sure if I will be able to open the file from Daniel.

If I can get the file open, I would be delighted to have some help from someone like Jay's friend to work on getting the site updated. If this works out, this will be a temporary solution to updating the website and I agree that we need one person with the software/website knowledge and a back ground in the club/reef keeping to keep the site updated in the future.
 
i think one standard logo that looks good black and white, embroidered, or what ever, but also could be colored to suit a fancy banner. not two logo's, just one that is black and white and one that is colored.
 
Please if you want to see any other color combinations let me know. If you have any ideas let me know. I have a thick skin and it is more beneficial for you to all say what you want then it is to spare my feelings.

My Votes are #1 for Black and white and #6 and #14 for Color.

Also, I believe you want one logo. You stick with one to create brand recognition. If you are doing a banner or a website you put the logo on it but small and supplement the graphics with pictures and design.

Well, if we would like the help all we need to give stephen is FTP username and password (I'm not really sure what that is but maybe Daniel can help me), he said that is all he needs to work on the site.

Ryan- I think the graphics are perfect, maybe if you could email me the files in PDF format JPEG or whichever I can pass them on.

Attached is a link to website of a sample of Stephen's work for the Feral cat management program on campus. There is lots of links, places to sign up for more information, etc. I think this will be very beneficial to the club.

I have also encouraged Stephen to join reefcentral and come to boards and check out our club.

In regards to the web site , getting started is always the hard part typically after something is started evolution begins and that is where the real work starts , the web site that is up today is simply a space which gives the club visibility in the "virtual world' it was done using Microsoft Office Publishing and put together in about 30 minutes (in other words not much of a web site) but nonetheless it gives us web presence, I for one would endorse Jay's suggestion in regards to putting the site on the hands of a true web developer so that we can 'evolve' the site without having to learn how to do it, although it might be fun learning how to build the site it will require some time to be invested in it.

Audry the file opens with Microsoft Publishing.
