Do we have a logo or a patch?

[OzFab]

add the domain,

That's a simple matter of stretching the design & putting .com at the end

I got the tri-star rim reference, but many here on this forum wouldnt.

Oh, I got it too... I'm also thinking about the general public; what would joe average think if that was the first impression?

As for wording: what exactly do we want to say? Yes, there are building plans here but, there's a whole lot more than that...

Nice work Kelly FWIW, I prefer the first one of those two

My thoughts exactly. In truth, we don't have much at all by way of plans, and that certainly isn't the focal point being the community, itself.

Y'all could use one'a my sig lines...

And the plot thickens.

Anyone out there got a camera that's decent and a willing camera person? Go out with a kart and do some slides with a big white background (like a bright brick wall) Position the camera low to the ground and shoot numerous shots of someone sliding with the wheels turned in correction. One might do a black & white version of that for a logo. Show a kart, you know what it is, and someone wearing a bobber helmet, no visor, recreate your own version of what's already at the top of this place. Shouldn't be too hard. I'll help if you want but my karts might be a little much for a representative image for this place.

Oh yeah, I'm sure they would work

How about something like
"help, tips & advice on small engine vehicles"

Which one has you worried?:arf:

Au contraire, mon frere! I find (I'm my twisted wreck of a mind) your stuff to be VERY DIY. You may be a lot more artistically talented than many of us, but what have you got? Well- Take an old, delapitated kart frame, restomod it, and have some fun. All under cover o' the shade tree in the backyard... What part of this is not representative? You put a nice, artzy flare on it. Whatever- You still wrench on it, and ride it proudly!

I'm just throwing it out there but, what about a combo of Kelly's work?

 

[Kelly Wood]

I smell something burning.

I smell something burning.

Is that a good or bad thing?

 

[Kelly Wood]

Good.

Now let's see what everyone else thinks...

 

[Fallenleopard]

I like that last one of them combined, The DIY being in blue highlights it and makes it stand out.
Just something about the spanner is annoying me haha
They all look great! I think something with a kart in it would make sense

 

[souperman000]

If you did want a "summary" of the site we could put it under the wrench (...spanner :toetap05

Edit - here is what I mean, paint wouldn't let me edit it after I removed the text box

NO FAVORITISM FROM THE USE OF THE "SLOGAN"

 

[Kelly Wood]

so, seems like you're kind of narrowing it down here in a way.

 

[gixxerkart]

So something like this?

 

[Orange Krate]

How about these?

 

[machinist@large]

How about these?

:ninja:


Where did you find THAT!?!?!

WOW!!! I don't know if that's our future logo, but we could do a lot worse!!!! I say we put it in the running!!!

 

[landuse]

Sorry guys, I just had to edit those posts to get rid of the huge images. They are now clickable thumbnails

 

[OzFab]

FINALLY, after only 8 months I have an amended design. What does averyone think?

The first design (with the shading) could be used as the site logo, etc
The second (exactly the same without the shading) could be used for printing stickers & other promos.
The banner is just to give you all an idea of what a bumper sticker may look like; we can play around with the font...

Sounds like my carb adaptor. LOL.

I love the logos though....We should maybe stick with them
