    Just joined this wee forum so I hope no-one takes offence to me posting here so soon. I run a football club here in Northern Ireland called Lisnafillan Swifts Fc. We are looking to get a website etc up and running which my assistant manager is taking to do with.

    What I would like some help with is getting us a badge for the website. We have a badge already as we are together 5 years but it was hand drawn and to me its not good enough for a website. So if any1 can re-do the badge for us for use on a website Id be very gratefull.

    I can do that for you Adriany. Couple of questions first though:
    Is that main colouring blue and white or blue and a lighter shading of blue and not white?
    What is that symbol/shape in the centre? Looks a bit like a skinny alien without a head.
    Overall, for a hand drawn logo someone has done a pretty good job. :)

    Cheers

    Hi CP,

    The background is transparent that pic is taken from our kit so it just is the colour of our kit. We play in black and blue and our away colours are white withe red arms.

    The Alien type thingy is supposed to be a swift hahaha but you hit it on the head mate thats why I want it to look proper. If its not too much bother for you can you design it so we can use it for our embroidery on our kits please.

    I appreciate you are a busy man so feel free to take your time.

    A swift is a bird huh? I've learned something new today.
    My hubby would most likely disagree. :D

    No problems, will get started on it in the morning.

    A swift is indeed a bird like a swallow and the pitch where we started off playing on had loads of these birds so thats where the name Lisnafillan Swifts came from.

    Something you could do and Il leave it up to you to decide, could you put the 2003 somewhere else on the badge as I think theres maybe a bit too much going on in it.

    The writing doesnt have to be blue either because we will be changing team colours at some point so make it basically all the 1 colour if it is easier.

    I thankyou for your help CP and I will get a wee link to this site on our website in the near future as the work on here is 1st class.

    Not sure bout the orange/yellow background and could you change the bird into black please

    If you can could you also try to do like a crest with 4 squares, 1 with the swallow 1 with the football 1 with est 2003 and maybe 1 with LSFC in it. the colours could be blue/black with alternating squares. The Veni Vidi Vici wrote in below or something.

    Hope you dont think I am a pain CP.

    Thanks Adrian
    Have the

    Thanks CP,

    I quite fancy the idea of the crest to be honest and I have seen some of the 1's you have done and I think its maybe the way to go.

    I hope you all have a happy and safe easter.

    CP,

    The banner at the bottom could you have it gold in colour with the writing in it please im just scared incase when the crest is reduced to fit the web the Veni Vidi Vici wont be seen.

    Sorry for the hassle,

    When I re-coloured the banner it looked like it didn't 'belong' with the rest of it so I repeated the 'gold' within the shield.
    How about this?

    Hi Covert,

    This is the badge I think would look good on our new kit, if you can tweak it to Lisnafillan on the top banner and Swifts Fc on the bottom banner. If you can find a factory chimney for the place where the flower is and put 03 in where the dragon is please.
