Dude its good.... look at mine I have Adobe Photoshop CS2 worth who knows how much money and your logo looks way better

I would like to thank you all again for your entries and hope that we see a few more in the next few days.... I hope no one took my IP ban comment to seriously, it was meant as a joke and it looks like it worked as it rallied a few of you into creating logos.

Thanks for your input guys.....

Yeap SPR's design is going to be tough to beat

For those of you complaining about not having Photoshop, go to getpaint.net

Paint.NET is like a free version of PS. I use it more than the PS CS3 I paid for...

I love your entry, INM.

Ditto... that clean approach is actually really refreshing!!

INM... thanks for the link to that website that should help people out for next month....

Along with GetPaint there is also GIMP (what I use). Just another possibility for everyone.

[imnotmikal]

I'm not really a fan of Gimp.
It doesn't seem too user-friendly. Or not Mikal-friendly...
lol.

Before you tell me, I've already tried GimpShop. It makes it a little easier, but I still prefer Paint.NET

I only use Gimp for .psd files when I don't feel like waiting for PS to load up.

[Donziikid]

Really? You don't like it? I find it quite simple. Huh.. To each their own, though.

[imnotmikal]

Yep.
I just couldn't get sued to it.
I thought the reason I didn't like it is because each thing has its own space on the task bar.
But I tried GimpShop, which puts everything into one window, and I still didn't like it.
I just feel like Paint.NET is easier for me to use.

i gotta say i would go for SPR's cause it is a nice reminder of Ken blocks new design and its easy. but i like zippos cause it has the subaru. but the font is to hard on the eyes lol.

xmodracer1's entry is really nice... just needs a tiny bit of re-size which could be done through photobucket.... great job though!!

[imnotmikal]

I don't like his for many reasons.
The photo used is stolen, its not his work.
The words are kind of hard to read. I have that font, but don't use it because I hate it.
The font color also clashes.

Although, I do like the photo itself.

[TheB1GDude]

Perfect reason for why this will come down to a vote....

[imnotmikal]

I know my opinion doesn't decide anything, but my main concern was the issue of the stolen image.
Shouldn't that be a rule?
You wouldn't want to get in any legal trouble, would you?

[TheB1GDude]

Providing he isn't claiming it as his own I believe we are OK... although if it originally had a logo on it www.cardomain.com for example then that should be left in tact....

You do bring up some good points INM.... I guess I'll give xmodracer1 until the end of the comp to ensure that his logo contains any copyright marks that were visible in the original image otherwise it would DQ'd.

I'll also add this to the rules!

Thanks for bringing that up!!

Xmodzracer1's is an awesome picture, I like. SPR has the best design imo.
