GMS1122 Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 whats up with all the clip-art??...i thought this was supposed to be a design contest. meaning we design the logo, not get some clip art and put text next to it. EDIT after re-looking though the thread, there isnt as much as i had thought. maybe i am overreacting? Hey don't look at me - I drew that Detroit skyline BY hand. Basically I looked at a picture and drew it from there. No clip-art used. i didnt name anyone, its not a big deal, you've got a nice logo there.

We're off to a huge start!I was worried about having a non-sports category as the first event. To think, the others are better... I tried to pick stuff that hasn't been done before.

tajmccall Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Well being the horrible homer i am, i went with Duluth, Minnesota. I tried to incororate, of course Lake Superior, but both literal and symbolic landmarks of Duluth. The Bridge is a literal copy of the famous bridge in Duluth, which's name I cant remember at 4:00 in the morning. Picture of Bridge and Modernized DowntownThe Factory shaped like a Ocean Liner is a symbolic homage to the shipping industry, while the distinct double water tower symbolized the unique old-towne feel of old duluth. The modern building symbolizes the new downtown, and then obviously the park is the national park.The saying comes from me getting into advertising (save rude comments ) and my annoying need for a catchy phrase to associate with.The color sheme, since this is a sports logo board, is derived fromt the University of Minnesota-DuluthIts not too fancy, just tried to play with irony of the lake being the grill, and went from there. As i read the newer posts, i see others have done similar things, but this was derived by my own, and all similarities are purely coincidental.ok sean, shut up and show the logo...

MC Buffalo Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 As my dad would say:"That ain't nothin' but Yankee propaganda!" It might be Eddie, but any barbecue held the fourth of July weekend is going to have nothing but Stars and Stripes all over it....And when was the last time a new Canadian Sports franchise released a logo without a Maple Leaf incorporated?

paynomind Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 (Strangely enough, I also picked Duluth. Sorry to step on any toes there, i have been working on this concept over the week, between other things, so I really had no idea you were using it.)The PNM team steps to the starting blocks, and delivers the following.The pictures below are to demonstrate that this design meets the hallmark of any event logo - Looking good embroidered on a polo!Enjoy - and let me know what you think!

Very nice work, Taj. But I can't help but feel a little let down by the omission of the Geno's Pizza factory in your logo.

Lee. Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 I havent the foggiest what that means, but thanks for the compliments Lee! Somewhere on the lake, there (I guess it's past tense now) used to be the Geno's Pizza factory, check with your folks. Geno's used to be a fairly popular regional frozen pizza line, no idea if they're still around.It's one of my earliest memories of Duluth from when I was a young'un.

I think you're right. I grew up in north-central Minnesota and also remember Geno's, Totinos whatever they are. But i don't think it's a regional thing. I'm pretty sure it's all around.Guess we're a tad off-topic.So, back on: Great concepts so far. I'm diggin' this Logoolympiad stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tajmccall Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Oddly, the Totino's founder's granddaughter, Tara, was an aquantence of mine. She was, err, as we say Top Heavy. She was the neighbor of my best friend Mike.So it comes full circle. Store 1 Store 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
