Played around with creating a new 6GC Logo today - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #38389 42 posts Started by Coomer
I'm considering redesigning the 6G Celicas logo for use on the site.

A new logo would have to be vector-based primarily for use both in print and on a computer screen, and I want something simple yet classy.

I messed around in Fireworks for a while today and here's what I ending up coming up with. There are a few different examples. Let me know what you think. smile.gif

i like the bottom ones, red stands out the best, maybe a darker blue if u wanted a blue, the top 2 are way to plain imo, and more can be added however u want it so it can be on print, im assumin u mean kinda like a business card, but what about a silouette (sp?) of a front end on the side of the card, and make the text on the right instead of centered.. therefore its got a celica, but since its not a complete render it can be easily printed
Last one looks nice, the additional line makes it stand out more. One suggestion, make GC in caps.

Nice work Coom.

I will return one day.
i think they look alright. i'm so used to the original, but i can't wait to see what you finally come up with. why not get some people to submit their ideas and logos and what-not to help out?

ss-iii splitters and 404 skirts areon. which means i need to update my sig.
I think we should go what celica tech did and have a contest......oh ya! Making the 6GC in caps would be a good idea though for your designs.

Teh Celica sleeps for Winter '06. Suspension overhaul begins........
chris,
imma be the d*ck on this one, and say i dont like it much...there is not enough definition to the car, and the font seems TOO plain.
then again, you know what they say about opinions wink.gif

i personally like the thrid one, with the blue backround its hot! Liking the fading lines. But i must say coomer, they all look awesome smile.gif

I like the last one however I think it is almost too plain. I like simplicity too, but a little less.

Agreeing with manny on this one. Font to plain/simple. Would rather see the current/old logo then this one.

put the 6 as a wheel in that car icon
I agree with Manny about the definition to the front of the car.
I agree with Jeff too. I think the "GC" should be in caps.
But other than that I like the last one smile.gif

I like the simple design.

My biggest problem with the logo is that it doesn't have "6gc.net" in it anywhere. (I have the same problem with the current logo.) If the logo going to be displayed elsewhere to bring traffic here, including "6gc.net" seems axiomatic to me.

I misunderstood, sorry.

There is nothing better then the old Plain logo Chris wink.gif You should start the new one from the old one, old one has almost everything what you need wink.gif

Hmm...perhaps I should have been more clear. I plan to replace this logo:

with a new one.

I tried dozens of fonts and various capitalizations, and these ones came out the best in my opinion. I know it's simple, but that's what I want for a logo used within the website. It will go well with some new design changes that I have planned.

I'm not talking about replacing the 6GC.net slanted logo used in stickers at this point. That discussion can go elsewhere at some point. wink.gif

New Toyota project coming soon...
#3 for sure! I'm liking the blue as well
ahhh..now i get it..lmao
in that case, i like #3 & #5

He's only trying to replace the logo on the homepage.

There are already 6gc.net stickers made, that logo will not change.

Im not thrilled with any of them but I have a very specific taste of very clean things, which is whats already there.

i think the celica dragon would look good by the end of the "S"

Is this good enuff 4 ya? :D
I think #5 looks really good!

I like number 5 but im not a fan of the stars - reminds me of snow.

Good work Coomer

I like #3, I like the white text on a colored background. I think though that the blue should be darkened a bit. Thats my two cents!
