Our Ideas & Additional Information
We would like the text to read smile 4 steve .com with the .com being slightly smaller.We need a minimalist pictorial element along the lines of a smiley face or an abstract smile graphic.

the image below is JUST to illustrate a minimalist type face/smile, it is not what we are looking for really

please look at http://72.29.76.194/~smile4st/

we want to replace the smile4steve text, and the black logo in the left top. on the right top, the leaves and flowers graphic will also be removed later and we will put something there along the lines of our theme, colours etc used in the logo.

the site is not complete, and the logo will define where we go with the colour theme all of the site in the future.

we want to bring the colours of the site out and make it a bit brighter

ideally we want the "S" for smile, or the "4" to become a button at a later stage like the "F" in facebook, but this can also be done with the smile pictorial graphic used in the logo

hi guys

dont really like the orange being used by ebonk

i like the steve to be in serious letters and the "smile" to e more playful and fun font

steve is a very serious character and we are trying to make him smile

i am not sure what we are going to use the "button" but i am thinking we will use the "4" so having the 4 being in both blue and yellow is good, like number 20.

in this case the smiley pictorial will need to be under the four, so we can have the "4" underscored by a smiley, maybe a yellow one with a thin blue outline, like the "4" itself.

Possible puttung a "S" in a swish type style behing the four and the smile, in thin black. so our final button is a black thin swish s, with the bold blue and yellow 4 and a smile pictorial over it.

hope this makes sense

all just ideas at the moment]

thanks guys

I like what Nong is doing with the s4s but it's not quite right. It's a bit tacky like it is now I think #36.

Still looking for that button type icon. Hoping to use the 4

I will post some ideas a bit later. Thanks

hi guys

if you look at the "S" at http://www.supersport.com/ you will see the s swish tyoe thing i was talking about

I would like to experiement with getting that s swish (not the same at the supersport one, more simple, but thats the general idea) behind or involved in the logo somehow, to allow us to build up the button and maintain a s in it

we want to see some sort of smiley face emoticon that can be used as a button. very simple, minimalistic, in our colours of yellow and blue and maybe black

detached from the text

maybe it is the $, maybe a new smiley face, maybe part of the S

please experiment a bit in this stage
