We are starting a new web Decalunderground.com strictly decals,graphics, pc wraps, custom stuff and etc. And I got this idea for a little contest. The site will be up by the end of this month. And we are in need of a logo..

This contest will be posted on a few different forums.

Winner will get there logo chosen as the sites logo,, and 25.00 in stuff on decalunderground.com

More then one winner can be chosen as we may rotate the logos...

Rules: Only thing is it must say Decal Underground.... or decal underground.com

There doesnt have to be a space between decalunderground or " ".com

The logo chosen may be edited to better fit the site.

Any questions just ask.. use this thread to post your logos...

DEADLINE IS NEXT SATURDAY -- THE CONTEST MAY END AT ANYTIME IF WE SEE SOME CRAZY HOTNESS WE JUST HAVE TO USE..

IF NO WINNER IS FOUND WE WILL USE THE LOGO WE GOT NOW... =(

Could you give us an idea about how big/small you want this logo to be? Is 300 x 300 pixels big enough?

And are you basing the logo off the site... or the site off the logo? Do we need to have any specific colors included in the logo?


IF NO WINNER IS FOUND WE WILL USE THE LOGO WE GOT NOW
Can i see the logo you have now to get an idea of what your looking for?

Well, we was going to try to work with anything but... since its a "Underground" dark colors or industrial look would be fitting.. but maybe not???? Also we would like the logo to go long ways mor like a header or banner..

We may take the logo and to it ... or make it work... The site will be made around the logo,, mostly just the colors... any colors work... black pink red.. anything...

we want for this site ,,, a grundge or punk,,, look .. kind of like the new fox motocross gear??

I think he is asking for anyone who has experience with graphics to create a logo its a contest so enter and he will see what he likes best. You might have 4 yeas experience but there may be others with a lifetime of experience.

Posting them today, got a little busy yesterday. please everyone just post what you have...

Yes we have graphical experience also , or we couldnt be doing custom grphics for people.. we are just trying to do something cool and let people create there on invision..

somebody may create a logo that really sucks.. but might catch our eye.. to base our logo on it...... tada.. sucky logo = WINNER

Good contest butcher, I like the new look for the site. I have a bit of experience printing decals and I was just wondering out of curiosity, do you print your own decals? Or do you get them custom made or pre-ordered? And if you print them yourself, using what method?

I'm only asking because I'm interested in printing, don't worry I'm not trying to steal your business or anything, lol.

butcher
08-15-2006, 01:20 PM
yes me wake them all ourselves.. and we dont print, we have plotters that cut material ...

tybrenis
08-16-2006, 12:23 AM
Sweet... may I ask what kind of plotters you use? I have always wanted to build a cnc machine... such as a cnc plotter. Interesting stuff.

Also, would you take custom orders if say I needed a custom vinyl decal for a mod or something in the future?

butcher
08-16-2006, 11:40 AM
yes we do custom work . we have roland, and seiki plotters...
