Help me choose my logo

[JM ELECTRICAL]

Hey guys,

Past few weeks ive been designing logos for my business these are the 2 it has came down to please tell me what you prefer coz i cannot choose what one to run with.

 

[iamelectric]

back to the drawing board , both pretty boring dont stand out enough , few good vids on youtube on designing logos

 

[telectrix]

2nd one but with the wavy lines in phase colours perhaps.

 

[Andy78]

The second ones look better than the first one IMO as the "flash" looks naff. The wave in the second one however looks a bit "watery", bit like a plumber's logo, and that would never do.

 

[telectrix]

do the wavy lines in red/yellow/blue.

 

[JM ELECTRICAL]

I think I am giving up trying to do it myself even though a like these I don't love them anybody recommend good designers ?

 

[Andy78]

I have a mate who is a graphic designer who did mine for me. Got any idea of your spend ?

 

[JM ELECTRICAL]

i was thinking of somewhere between 100 - 150, if you could put me in contact with him that would be great mate

 

[iamelectric]

i would let my 3 year old daughter do it before i payed anyone , just keep trying out designs and think outside the box , 90% of the sparks logos are the same old stuff , flash , switches , bulbs etc , try something different that will stand out from the rest , and have a look at they vids on youtube their is some good advice in some of them

 

[MDJ]

My view is they both look very tacky, back to the drawing board my friend.

Been doing a bit of re-branding myself

Just had mine done by 99designs.com, they are good lots to choose from off the shelf or they will design for you

will post pic of van up when it stops raining


unless your gifted dont try and do it yourself, it will look exactly like you tried to do it yourself

get it done by a pro, just like electrics!

You should consult the company who you intend to use when you buy logo'ed polo's etc - they will tell you what will work, and remember its the logo on your work wear that is important

I allways find the swastika attracts the most eyes

I find a pair of SS runes works extremely well......

 

[Tiny Spark]

I dont like either that much but prefer the first one.

But I agree with the above think out of the box and be creative.

Strange/unique is memorable.

I have a 'flash'

 

[Andy78]

I meant that flash looked a bit naff, not flashes in general. Anyway, show us your flash Kate

 

[Dipzy]

Have you tried looking through the Vista web site they have some good designs which you can modify to suit your needs. I think they provide a custom design service too, not sure of their price though.

that gets rid of the annoying message too, lol

Aren't flashes something we should be avoiding though?

 

[Kate]

We fix them

 

[jimmymac]

Your logo doesn't have to be related to electricity, KFC have a picture of an old man

 

[telectrix]

so do bird's eye, but i won't eat fish. ( note the correct use of the apostrophe).

 

[Welchyboy1]

Had this done this week from 99 designs

 

[MDJ]

That looks good and very professional fella

 

[moospark]

I use an apostrophe to indicate;
(A) The possessive, i.e. This is Tel's zimmer frame.
(B) The structure of unusual words, i.e. I bcc'd a copy to all of the to$$ers.
(c) Missing letters in the middle of words or phrases, i.e. Aren't flashes something we should avoid.

 

[iamelectric]

I think you missed Tel's joke, mate?

No. Would love a bit of bird's eye, but I'm a married man, fish all the way.
