    Hello there i dont know if im in the right place and if im not im sorry but im new to this so i should get use to this soon. Basically i would like to have a logo created for my football team if that is possible. i know this sounds rude but if it could be made by the end of this week it would be a great help to me. i know it is very rude of me to ask for a deadline so soon and it is my own fault for leaving this to the last minute but if it could be done in that time i would be very grateful. below i have answered the questions for you.

    1) What is the exact name you would like in your logo?
    Crawley Athletic FC. if it is possible could i have the first line as Crawley Athletic and then FC underneath it

    2) What is your website address (ex: http:/site .com/; Site Name)?
    N/A

    3) Description of your website or business:
    Football Club

    4) Search the Internet for any logos/designs on the web that you feel convey
    the style you are looking for?
    I really like the ireland logo which can be found on the ireland football team website and i will also attach it with the changes i would like to it.
    i would like the outline of the logo to be black and the middle of the logo to be lime green (the same colour as the kit in the photo i have uploaded if it is possible please. could i please have all the writing black and the picture within the logo black aswell please. plain and simple :)

    5) Requested size of your logo:
    Basically we ask this to determine the graphics resolution and what it will be eventually used for.
    Is the logo to be used solely for the web? (low resolution)
    Will it be made into a poster or printed on shirts? (high resolution)
    erm well the logo is going to be printed onto our football shirts so high resolution please and erm im not sure on the size but i guess you have had many people ask for resolutions that will fit perfectly on football shirts so if you know the correct size of the logo it would be very helpful. i think like 100mm by 70mm is right isnt it?

    6) Do you have any images/photos that can be used for the logo? (must be copyright free)
    Finding an appropriate, non-copyrighted graphic is the hardest and most time-consuming part
    of putting together logos. If you have a hand drawn sketch of what you want, please feel
    free to scan it and post the image.
    (please keep any posted graphics under 600 x 600 pixels.)
    Don't have your own but you require graphic in your logo, then search and find at least two that reflect what you are visualizing post them or a link and explain what it is about them you like, be as descriptive as you can.

    7) What logo styles do you like (text only, image only, text and image, etc.)?
    Text and Image – Includes text and images used in your logo. This could be used to either
    give a clearer view of what your logo is showing to your audience.
    my logo will have an image in it and a couple of words in it so its a mixture of text and image as i think it is more appealing to our audiences as it has more to look at

    8) What colors do you want to see in your logo?
    our logo will consist of black and white. im sorry to change this from lime green but i have realised this logo will need to go on my away kit aswell and it will look really wierd on there so please ignore the lime green which i wrote about before and the picture i sent you im really sorry for this and hopefully it hasnt disrupted you/ i would like the outline, the picture and the writing to be black and the background on the inside of the logo to be white please if that is ok?

    9) What colors do you NOT want to see in your logo?
    N/A

    10) Describe the target audience for your logo
    erm there is not really an audience to be honest as it is a mens football league so erm the only audience i sort of say really is professional if that is an audience?

    11) What are the top 3 things you would like to communicate through your logo?
    This will help the designer know how to design your logo and to what effect.
    (e.g could be targeted to attract new businesses, gamers, newly weds, children,
    builders etc etc)
    i would just like our logo to show that our club means business when it comes to football and we want to prove that we have what it takes to be a profesional football club.

    12) Where will your logo be used (print, website, etc.)?
    our logo is going to be soley used for printing onto our football kits so i think high resolution (as said earlier) would be good. well you knwo best so i shall leave you masters to decide :)

    13) Do you have other info or links you want to share?
    N/A

    14) Finally we need is there a style font you prefer, please let us know.
    For font types you can look here daFont or one of the many Font Websites available.
    I like the DC Comics writing but im not sure how it would look on the logo so have a go with that one and if it doesnt look right then please feel free to choose a font of your own to make the logo look perfect.

    the picture i would like in the logo is the last picture i uploaded which is the man about to kick the football. i think it is a copyrighted picture though :( but if not then if you can somehow could you find a way putting that picture in the logo or finding a similar picture to put in there if that is possible. if this doesnt work out and if you can think of anything that would be related to the name Crawley Athletic which is related to football then i would be really grateful for your ideas and input into the logo.

    Thankyou very much for your time and i look forward to hearing from you soon :)

    Here's what I've come up per your request. I also added a little difference with the 'stripes' on the side but still feel it needs something more.
    What do you think?

    Wow that is really good! Yeah i know what you mean i think that it would be good to have the england flag in the background of it and possibly change the man to something else? Not sure what to change it to though seeing as crawley athletic doesnt like represent anything (as in having a lions head ect) but i am very comfortable with you changing that around if you wouldnt mind. I love the stripes you done and the wording is perfect i am very grateful for what you have done for me. only if you wouldnt mind then please could you change the middle of it for me? Only if that is ok?

    Thankyou again so much this logo looks amazing.

    Hello sorry to mess you around i spoke to my team and they said it is wicked as it is so im going to leave it at that as to be honest it is am amazing bit of work you have done for us. Thankyou very much indeed. Could i please have it in a few different sizes if thats ok? The high resolution size to put onto the kit and then could i have it in a smaller resolution so then i can put it on company paper and on our website ect?

    Thankyou very much you have been a tremendous help to our team and i cannot thank you enough. Is there anything i can do in return??

    Before the guys make their minds up for good, show them these two other versions below. (the one with the ball in the background will mean introducing a 2nd colour)

    Wow those are both really good too, i think we are going to go with the one with the ball in the background. What colour do you think would suit best for the football??

    And also this is a really big favour of you and i wont post all the details just yet just incase you cannot do it but if it would be possible could you create me something that i have in mind to go on as a sponsor for one of our football kits please??
     
  9. CovertPea

    CovertPea Moderator Staff Member Verified Member

    It can be as it is there, a light grey.

    As for the other favour, I wont know if I can do it until I have some details to go on.
    :)

    faithfull01 New Member

    yeah the light grey seems really good so ill heep it at that thankyou ever so much. :)

    for the away sponsor here i will answer your questions for you and see what you think of the idea :).

    What is the exact name you would like in your logo?
    i would like Culleys Carp Tackle on the first line and then below in smaller writing i would like 2nd Hand Fishing Gear.

    2) What is your website address (ex: http:/site .com/; Site Name)?
    N/A

    3) Description of your website or business:
    Fishing Shop

    4) Search the Internet for any logos/designs on the web that you feel convey
    the style you are looking for?
    erm i had a look and couldnt find any logos or designs but i have thought about having a fish with the writing on top of it ( the writing i told you about above) and then like two fishing rods crossing behind the fish if thats possible?

    5) Requested size of your logo:
    Basically we ask this to determine the graphics resolution and what it will be eventually used for.
    Is the logo to be used solely for the web? (low resolution)
    Will it be made into a poster or printed on shirts? (high resolution)
    the logo is oging to be a sponsor on a football shirt and i think the regulations are 200 square centimetres but not to sure but i would like the logo to be in like a rectangle (covering more of the shirt longways)

    6) Do you have any images/photos that can be used for the logo? (must be copyright free)
    I have had a look but i couldnt find any pictures that were copyright free so im sorry that i couldnt get any but if you could then i would be ever so grateful. obviosuly ive described above what pictures ect i would like and if somehow you could find them i would be very very happy.

    7) What logo styles do you like (text only, image only, text and image, etc.)?
    Text and Image – Includes text and images used in your logo. This could be used to either
    give a clearer view of what your logo is showing to your audience.
    my logo will have a couple of images in it and some writing so its a mixture of text and image as i think it is more appealing to our audiences as it has more to look at

    8) What colors do you want to see in your logo?
    well i am thinking of having the writing blue because the fish will be a kinda greeny/white colour and then have the rods which could be any colour (most fishing rods are black so probably black rods would be good) and then maybe have a green or white background? ill let you decide as your much better as this than me.

    9) What colors do you NOT want to see in your logo?
    N/A

    10) Describe the target audience for your logo
    this is mainly for people that like to fish because it is for a fishing shop/football sponsor

    11) What are the top 3 things you would like to communicate through your logo?
    This will help the designer know how to design your logo and to what effect.
    (e.g could be targeted to attract new businesses, gamers, newly weds, children,
    builders etc etc)
    i would like the logo to show that it is for any type of fisherman to come down to the shop and look at what merchandise is for sale but then also i want to show that it is a proper business as it will be portrayed on our football shirts.

    12) Where will your logo be used (print, website, etc.)?
    for now the logo is going to be used as a sponsor but it will also be used to put in the shop in the furture and possibly as a big billboard to go on the front of the shop.


    13) Do you have other info or links you want to share?
    N/A

    14) Finally we need is there a style font you prefer, please let us know.
    i had a good look and just couldnt find any fonts to suit it so if you wouldnt mind could you please have a little look to find one that is very professional for the business.

    thankyou very much and i will look forward to hearing from you soon :)

    Best place to help is website reviews - Joe Public's thoughts of what looks good and what doesn't is the most valuable feedback a web owner can get!

    Anyways, here's what I've come up with. Kinda cheated on this one (been a tad busy) as I used a version of a fish graphic from a logo making proggy as a basis.

    Yeah, and no fishing poles either. :eek:

    Oooh i do like that quite a lot, the only thing that i would like to change if it is not to much trouble is making the blue more of a dark bold blue and possibly making the fish a real fish if that would be ok?? sort of like the picture that i have attached but obviously not that one because it is most likely copyrighted and its on like a plack. but yes please if you could do make those changes for me if it is not a problem then i would be very very grateful.

    and thankyou for the advice i will have a look there shortly to see if i can make a difference!

    Thankyou again :):)

    Thanks Modman, you're right about a 'real' fish pic not being suitable.:)

    Here's all in a darker blue with a fish drawing.
