PHOTOSHOP GURU NEEDED for logo help

[Big_THanks]

My buddies and I are starting a local off road group for our small city. Nothing like a forum or nothing just friends getting together. Anyway we need a Logo so we can make decals and whatever.

We go by the name "RIDGE RUNNERS" (cause we live in East Ridge).

We are looking for something cool maybe off roadish for a logo so feel free to throw out an idea.

FYI it's not just xterras so I don't want to appeal to just one make.

That's pretty sick man. Thanks. Problem is I don't think I can have a decal cut with multiple colors in it. I like this though.

you'd most likely have that one digital printed would be the way to go. cutting and layering vinyl would be annoying with that one lol.

Yeah that's what I'm saying I want something I can just have cut as a decal. I know someone who can do them cheap I just need a design.

That is an awesome design and wouldn't look bad at all in black and white if the right person done it!

You just need to simplify down to 1 color,

agreed, get the source file, strip all of the non-black out, and make sure you print large enough that the details will be viewable instead of mudded up.

 

[civicjoe]

Also would need to be all lines and shapes no bitmaps

I think I am just going to take the design and recreate it myself with the tweaks to make it work better as a decal.

Also if anyone else has a design idea throw them out there even if its just a crappy pencil doodle. I know you guys always have good ideas.

You can print those on a bumper sticker style vinyl. Here is a video of how to do it at home

agreed, you could take em to someplace like fastsigns and get em to make a batch of $20 for under $50 and that's with em being 5" wide...

i forgot that a vynil cutter would be cheaper...holdon, let me try to think of a way to make this all one color ands till make it look decent

 

[Dbrown016]

Here we go! Just everything white or green will be pulled off the sticker so basically just everything black will stay there. My highschool engineering class has a vinyl cutter that i cut all of my decals for my windows out on. ill will cut this and see what it looks like if i peel out the white and the green. its kinda hard to visualize.

The only problem I foresee is the tire tread transferring well.

you'd have to do the sticker in a none black color mac then it would look fine. so like white , red you be able to see the thread. but i know what your talking about we run into the problem when people bring us designs.

 

[luv2mud]

White would probably be best. When I said black and white before I should have been more clear. Mine is all white. The window makes it look black and white. When you weed the tread out on the tires it will look good. As you can see there is a lot of detail. Especially in the dirt bike.
Here is my pic. Sorry for the dirt. Its too dark to get a new clean one. Hopefully this helps visualize yours a little more.

I uploaded this from my phone.Ill try to get a better close up pic when its daylight.

Thats pretty cool I am thinking something like that thanks for the share.

Tire tread isn't an issue it just takes time when applying the decal... I have two decals already on the truck with tread patterns it just takes patience to not mess it up.

 

[Dbrown016]

^Did you put every small piece of tread on those stickers on by hand one by one?

 

[luv2mud]

When you order the sticker it comes in one piece. Whoever makes the sticker has to weed out all of the tread and fine pieces. You just stick it on your vehicle and peal the back off.

 

[Dbrown016]

Yeah i know how it works, as i made my clubxterra.com sticker. its not bad for the person making the sticker. the outside of it just peals right off around the letters into one piece. Or in his case around the tread!

 

[Big_THanks]

Bump

Anyone else got a design???

I made this for a friend of mine...
