And yes, we are fine with one word for Eastside. And you are correct, it does work better as one word for this purpose. I like the script font, but struggling with it a little for this purpose. Maybe because I have seen this a lot here. The market we are going for is sort of the bmx, skateboard crowd. Except not kids, the older ones with a little more money but who think they are still kids. Its mostly men, but there are some women (me!). They want something that looks authentic, not too contrived. But they also want something a little not like what they are seeing in more mainstream markets.I hope that helps! 9 years ago sabinedukes Client Also I very much appreciate all of the color examples, Its very helpful 9 years ago Akerman Logo Designer #208 #209 #210 #211A "Fast Rider" font with bent shape for urgency and activity.Element for coloring in beginning and end (can be removed and possibly make the top part differ from bottom part) 9 years ago Akerman Logo Designer #212 #213 #214No extra element and color/shade division between top and bottom part 9 years ago Akerman Logo Designer Small error on first "s" - Fixed it but not uploading until I get some feedback or you want more examples. :-) 9 years ago sabinedukes Client Thank you so much for your recent submissions. I'm not so keen on these latest ones. The name is a little hard to read, and this also looks a little too much like something that might be used in mainstream US sports. Action sports folks don't really respond as well to that imagery. I hope that information helps!Sabine 9 years ago sabinedukes Client Here's the type of imagery the bmx crowd is used to seeing. I don't necessarily want our logo to be that dark and juvenile, but it gives an idea of the edginess expected. https://www.google.com/search?q=bmx+logos&espv=2&biw=1920&bih=936&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=80-vVNz4EcvnoATU_IGQDQ&ved=0CB0QsAQ#tbm=isch&q=bmx+logos&imgdii=_ 9 years ago Akerman Logo Designer #243 #244 - "The Industry Complex"#245 #246 - "Salute the Sergeant"#247 #248 - "The Eagle has Landed"Three different ways to use the letter E to create an "Apparel Logo"The only other alternative to "go more edgy", is to go the graffiti style with the logo.
