New Shop Logo
So I'm ramping up to make it official and thought I'd get some feedback :)
Shop name will be Pagano's Sport & Service. I'm focusing on cool Euro classics, especially for motorsports. I added the " 's " since I think it sounded better...so that will be applied to all.
I have my favorite, what is yours?

Re: New Shop Logo
I like the logos.
My suggestion is to adopt the logo, as well as the color scheme, but do several color variations. It all depends on the substrate you're putting it on. You need a 1 color b&w version for sure, but maybe have a few variations of the same colors so you don't get pigeon holed into using the same color background all the time. Ie... blue, black and white logo for on yellow, black white yellow on blue,... etc.
I'm a fan of consistency in the logo, but feel its ok to alter the color so long is it remains recogizable to your common identity.
I have tried to get away from circles, and ovals in logo design. I think the surrounding shape becomes the limiting factor in your design. I really dig the tire tread effect.

Re: New Shop Logo
Hmm. I put in a vote, but I kind of agree with Jason on this one, having some flexibility to mix & match colors depending on how you are using the logo could be handy, could offer your customers options to match their color scheme.
My 2nd favorite is the lime green by the way, very cool Euro retro look to the bright green.

It helps to be married to a graphic designer. My top favorites are the top picks and thanks for your comments.

If I actually spent as much time working, as I do F'ing off, I'd be rich.

Re: New Shop Logo
I didn't spend a lot of time on it, so it could probably stand some refinement.
Like replacing the O in TRIONIC with the old skool Turbo emblem O like on his chest.
Maybe try alternate text layouts too, with differing fonts.

Jordan and I have had some discussion on making schwag available when he finalizes the identity.
I plan on sporting his brand on my 84 notch. He will be doing all of the wiring work and tuning.

Re: New Shop Logo
Ya, Jordan if you have decals made by the time you send me those harnesses throw some in, I will get them on my cars as well.
For that matter I need some Shirt Happens and some 9Sport logos too.
Dammit, now I need to get around to working on mine!

Re: New Shop Logo
No doubt...
I plan to pimp out my notch with logos of forum friends.
I'm thinking that somewhere on the car it's gonna say, " Follow my build (and rebuild...) @ SAABrally.com"
Summit Racing is more than generous with their stickers,.... but no.
