View Full Version : -CF.com Emblem Competition- SpecterGT260 07-16-2008, 01:58 PM http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f99/fargen_noogen/competitionrules.jpg 73camaroSS 07-16-2008, 07:34 PM this is a badass idea what took you so long to come up with it spector 73camaroSS 07-16-2008, 07:35 PM you need to get musicman to come up with one hes pretty good at this stuff SpecterGT260 07-16-2008, 08:59 PM the damn forum wont let me post the rules. SpecterGT260 07-19-2008, 02:45 PM a-HA! specter wins! screenshot ftw!. ok guys, start doing stuff now :) SpecterGT260 07-19-2008, 02:47 PM and 73, i had talked to patrick about this idea a little before, but it was actually musicman that said something recently and made me decide to start it up MusicMan 07-24-2008, 11:55 AM All submit one, I'll have to play with it when I get back. Got an idea, just have to see if I can make it work. Why's this in exterior? SpecterGT260 07-24-2008, 11:57 AM the most fitting place I could think of.... we dont have a chop shop, and the onlything car related i mentioned was decals.... = exterior. i dunno [&o] MusicMan 07-24-2008, 11:58 AM Works for me SpecterGT260 07-24-2008, 12:00 PM plain ones work too. if we could just find some tasteful yet bitchin fonts and just do "Camaroforums.com" we definitly need some MusicMan 07-24-2008, 02:56 PM Here's my first batch, still working on it, have higher res available. http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll291/musicman_sax/Logowithreflection800x212.jpg http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll291/musicman_sax/logonoreflection800x141.jpg http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll291/musicman_sax/CFt-shirt.jpg th3po1son 08-16-2008, 11:03 PM okay is it possible to have different pics every time the website is refreshed? like visit it once and you have a 1st gen SS, then visit it again and get a 4th gen Z28, and so on and so forth? th3po1son 08-16-2008, 11:53 PM okay so heres the logo i thought would work well. kinda plain. oh and this is the REAL camaro font so im gonna have to use another font that is close. just for illustrative purposes for now. i also put in a pic of my car (since its really the only pic i have permission to use) to show the idea of having the webpage banner change to a new car every time you refresh. http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g35/bassplaya_wesley_3600/banner-3.jpg MusicMan 08-16-2008, 11:56 PM I found our current banner, this is what I'm using in the poster: http://www.camaroforums.com/banners/1.jpg 73camaroSS 08-17-2008, 03:33 AM steve just change those logos you made awhile ago for or now failed club,i allways thought they were badass. Saint_Ali 08-19-2008, 01:37 AM musicman the first one you posted is bad ass, for the tshirt design i dont think it would make a difference if the years were there or not, and there is no such thing as a 2009 camaro, i did like the second banner design you did as well skylinrcr01 08-19-2008, 02:41 AM if someone could smooth out the body lines ill send the photoshop file ...its a 69 maro side shot. http://i33.tinypic.com/f1fh36.jpg jamguitarist91 09-24-2008, 08:24 PM did this idea go down the drain? cause if not i would definately order one of those and put it across my trunk lid window, that would be nice!!! and i like the way thepoison did the website thing, it would look great even without the pic SpecterGT260 09-24-2008, 08:55 PM no, its definitly still there. some forum problems have slowed it down. post up ideas guys MusicMan 09-24-2008, 09:04 PM Hey spec, my first entries are no good now, I had to reformat my hard drive due to a virus, and forgot to pull the high res files for those. Those are the biggest I've got. Good news though, I just got a font pack with 2500 fonts, so I'm making another one. jamguitarist91 09-24-2008, 09:10 PM sweet, yeah i've been having problems a lot lately on here... i'm ny good with computer stuff, i cant even photoshop... but still i think this idea is great MusicMan 09-25-2008, 04:22 PM I think you guys are gonna like what I'm almost done with. I found that font again, but modified the colors a little bit. MusicMan 09-25-2008, 04:23 PM :) I really like this. http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll291/musicman_sax/Untitled-1-1.jpg http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll291/musicman_sax/CFTshirt.jpg MusicMan 10-25-2008, 01:52 AM Are we still doing this? SpecterGT260 10-25-2008, 03:58 PM yeah, we need a little more participation before we can set up an official download page. plus, we need tow ait for the update before we do that because who knows if it will carry over. this thread will survive along with the pics, so well just resume our competitions upon upgrading MusicMan 10-25-2008, 04:45 PM I hope we get the upgrade soon. This place needs to be updated a little bit. SpecterGT260 12-16-2008, 02:41 PM yes. hey musicman. I have started an invite only fquick group for CF.com members. wanna make something in the proper dimensions to show our awesomeness? MusicMan 12-16-2008, 04:27 PM What's the dimensions? My fquick is musicman btw. I'll have to make it all over again, my laptop went down again a month or so ago, and I couldn't save the desktop files. SpecterGT260 12-16-2008, 04:31 PM its roughly square. i uploaded ur one pic already, but it shrinks them so its very small due to its rectangular shape. just whip something up for it. uve already gotten an invite. MusicMan 12-16-2008, 05:32 PM Will this work? Or should I make a few more changes? I think that the pic will be 150 pixels wide, this is 200, so it'll shrink a little bit. http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll291/musicman_sax/CFLogoFquick.png SpecterGT260 12-16-2008, 05:45 PM maybe emphasize the camaro forums part. it shrinks so much you cant really see much, so small written details will be lost (like the years and dark parts) MusicMan 12-16-2008, 06:09 PM This should be actual size. It's hard to work with something so little, is this better? I think it's kinda plain, but if I add much more, it gets cluttered. http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll291/musicman_sax/CFLogoFquick2.png MusicMan 12-16-2008, 06:11 PM brightened up the badge a little bit http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll291/musicman_sax/CFLogoFquick2-1.png SpecterGT260 12-16-2008, 06:15 PM nice. of course that one wont work for the FORUM, because of the chevy owned symbol, but on fquick it will do nicely :) SpecterGT260 12-16-2008, 06:16 PM that and it needs to be jpeg or gif..... fquick is way too picky about file formats... MusicMan 12-16-2008, 06:19 PM wat. Ok, but I hate jpeg, blurs things up a little. Gimme a second. MusicMan 12-16-2008, 06:23 PM http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll291/musicman_sax/CFFquickLogo.jpg SpecterGT260 01-17-2009, 08:15 PM alright, lets get this going again, and in its NEW HOME!!!! welcome to the CHOP SHOP! MusicMan 01-17-2009, 08:30 PM WOOHOO! But dang at the same time. The last one I submitted is the highest res I have, thanks to another virus I got. Can you find out what dimension is needed? That would be helpful. SpecterGT260 01-17-2009, 08:37 PM u mean for fquick? I think ill prune this thread eventually to consolidate evertyhing. dont worry too much about fquick, lets just get some neat CF.com graphics that everyone can use. MusicMan 01-17-2009, 08:40 PM No, for here. My pics in post #23 SpecterGT260 01-17-2009, 08:43 PM so what is your question then? you cant change resolution? the dimensions can be whatever you want them to be. lets just get creative. MusicMan 01-17-2009, 08:52 PM Alright, then my submission still stands I guess. I'm working on re-doing it so you could have the photoshop file if I win. Then you could do whatever with it. The hard part is finding that font again. But I might change it. cbr600rx7 01-18-2009, 04:11 PM Im not a big photo shop guy but i like the last one from musicman. Very plain and clean representing all generations with out discrimination. hascet 01-18-2009, 07:08 PM Congrats on the update! I'll definatley be around more because of it. Here's my stab at an emblem, a member here might recognize one of the pictures, sorry but I couldn't find a satisfactory third gen pic from Google images :p What do you guys think? http://www.crazycomputers.org/images/emblem.jpg SpecterGT260 01-18-2009, 08:09 PM that looks good hascet 01-18-2009, 08:12 PM Thanks, but I was thinking it probably wouldn't work to well as an emblem since it couldn't be made into a sticker or put on a t-shirt. cplthomas 01-19-2009, 03:44 PM I would participate, but you called me a crybaby so no. SpecterGT260 01-19-2009, 04:40 PM who called u a crybaby? stop being a crybaby about being called names and pitch in! cplthomas 01-19-2009, 04:45 PM Oh, all right. Give me some time to come up with something. shawnathan 01-19-2009, 10:16 PM is there a reward for best?? :P shawnathan 01-19-2009, 10:17 PM oh and I think it sould be something that could be put on like a badge for your car like the z28 emblem SpecterGT260 01-19-2009, 10:25 PM it can be anything. eventually we can group them together into banners, printable logos. I can make an entire section in the forums showcasing this, or we can put it in an album. lots of possibilities. just get to chopping! MusicMan 01-19-2009, 11:30 PM I'm trying to make something new, but I'm having problems finding a font I like more than the one I picked. I'd like to make something more universal, without a reflection. (so it could be used as a vinyl decal, if wanted). I'm also trying to use as few colors as possible, so shirts could be made. My current submission looks nice I think, but I'm not 100% satisfied with it. MusicMan 01-21-2009, 07:53 PM I just had an epiphany (sp?) Got a completely new idea that I'm working on now. MusicMan 01-21-2009, 09:15 PM http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll291/musicman_sax/CF-logo-badge.jpg Still working on it. This is much better than my last submission in my opinion. I'm modifying it to show you what I mean. With this basic setup, it will be easy to make shirts, stickers, and decals. I'm putting it on a shirt to show this. MusicMan 01-21-2009, 09:32 PM See what I mean? (this is the back of the shirt). You can limit it to 2 colors, which means cheap shirts. I'm still trying to figure out what to do with the ".com", it looks out of place. http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll291/musicman_sax/T-Shirt-CF-red-white.jpg shawnathan 01-21-2009, 10:29 PM i like it hascet 01-24-2009, 04:24 PM musicman that's nice, that font is nearly identical to the Camaro font, but you should connect the cross on the a, it's easy and then it would match almost perfectly. SpecterGT260 01-24-2009, 05:02 PM .com could be centered underneath the whole thing? i see what ur saying tho, it looks a little "thrown in there", but the overall is awesome. or do this: just the Camaro Forums the way it is. and then put the whole www.camaroforums.com under it almost like an underline for the whole thing MusicMan 01-24-2009, 05:47 PM I like your last idea spec. I'll give it a try. As for that "a", I can't find a font that has the correct one. I could draw it, but it'll look odd. But I'll see what I can do. MusicMan 01-24-2009, 06:11 PM Hmm, it looks better. I'm trying to use as few colors as possible, the red looks ok. What I don't understand is why it looks different when you transfer it to a jpeg. The C and F are inset further than what shows. I don't want to plague you guys with slow loading png's, so you'll just have to imagine what I'm talking about. http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll291/musicman_sax/CFLogoBadge2.jpg SpecterGT260 01-24-2009, 11:38 PM not bad. once we get a few of these (which i like the size you are using, very versatile as far as uses go) I will make a sticky with all of them and everyone is welcome to post pictures. the more the merrier. remember, these are mostly for people's personal use. we just need plenty of options MusicMan 01-25-2009, 12:34 AM I have the high res also, I think 1200 pixels wide or something. Is there going to be some kind of voting to determine the official one, or something like that? SpecterGT260 01-25-2009, 07:48 PM well, according to the OP i would just let staff decide which ones we wanted to keep on. its not a legitimate competition, and thus far the only "winning" we get is the satisfaction that people like ur work lol. that was mostly just a failsafe to justify rejecting anything that was complete crap. I WOULD be nice to see what other talent is out there too lol. but when i start to feel ambitious I will sticky the ones we have so far into an easily found download page. if you want to send me the better files I could always add them as attachments too MusicMan 01-25-2009, 08:23 PM Can you pm me your email? The png file I have is pretty big. 3200 pixels wide. GMDCAMARO 09-30-2009, 01:14 PM Resurrection! lt4weeda 10-07-2009, 06:55 PM haha totally. I like musicman's idea. has anyone ever seent he competition diesel window stickers? they are just a plane jane font in white that say: competition diesel .com something like that anyways. there are nothing great but they are easy and affordable to make EDIT: I'll see if I can't find some pictures of it, I know I have a buddy with one on his truck wicked 01-27-2010, 06:11 PM anybody ever come up with anything? i like what musicman did in post 62 i have very little glass since i have a convertible and i would love to just have what he put on the bottom of that image in red on my windshield montecarlogrrl 02-17-2010, 12:32 PM I like your last idea spec. I'll give it a try. As for that "a", I can't find a font that has the correct one. I could draw it, but it'll look odd. But I'll see what I can do. So are you looking for the actual Camaro font? Cause I have it.. or what looks to be the right one anyway. Btw, I didn't read the whole thread (just skimmed it) but your designs look good. edit: NM that would be using a copyright without permission, wouldn't it. nj85z28 02-17-2010, 06:04 PM wanted to participate..found the image on google, just clipped it and added some font. it keeps it quite simple actually |
