Creed Bratton Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Sorry, been a bit busy with work. Shirts will definitely not be dark colored. I will look into a light grey, but only if we go with silk screening. If we try and print on colors that are not white, we will run into coloration problems. I'm doing a test print tomorrow with several different materials. I'm going to then beat the hell out of each shirt to see if any of the materials are worth using. I'll keep you all in the loop as things progress. In the mean time, is anyone interested in a sticker for your car, laptop, etc? Thinking about printing some decals of just the logo (Like I have for my profile picture), and a bumper sticker. Bumper Stickers and or decals would be cool! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrill_Biscuit Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Just a thought, and I'm no expert in what it would take to bring it together and all, but I can vividly imagine your logo as a sign, hanging over a small "storefront" on International Street or Coney Mall... again, just a thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcgoble3 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I just had an idea: what would it take to convert the new logo into a new favicon for the site? The existing one that just says "KI" on a plain background just doesn't "do it" for me, and I think the new logo might make a better favicon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making vector art look good at a very small size can be tricky. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMHConcepts Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 And sorry everyone for the delay. Work has been extremely hectic. Does anyone like this version of the T-shirt I just designed? Or should I go to a more clean look? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stashua123 Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I like the on with the USA behind it. Was it possible to implement username jerseys? Either way i really like the design 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malem Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 ^^ Of the two, I like the first one best. The map makes it look somewhat busy. I don't really have an opinion over "clean" vs. "stylized" - it could look good either way. By the way, perhaps the tagline font could be changed? From a distance, that could look like "Hings Islano". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I like the top one better, as it looks simpler/less busy. The outline of the US doesn't really make sense to me, as we're (mostly) all from one relatively small region (OH/IN/KY), plus I like the appearance of negative space better than the black. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMHConcepts Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open to design it any way. I know I'm cutting it close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMHConcepts Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 Too dizzy. *extremely dizzy* Yes, I know. I was just randomly "inspired" by Bioshock Infinite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupremoSteveo Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Haha I could see the bioshock inspired design in a tank top form for some reason. I like the overall tweaked design of the KIC logo. I could see this on a gray or white shirt with maybe a little vintage faded touch to it. Either way, I'm buying whatever is settled on!

LMHConcepts Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 Was playing Bioshock Infinite when I became inspired by some of their artwork. It's definitely different from typical enthusiast shirts. It's still not complete, waiting on approval from some of the KICentral higher ups on whether or not I should continue in this direction.

jcgoble3 Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Hey look! We're better than Six Flags! 'Cause we got EIGHT flags! Seriously, though, I think the Bioshock version is cool, but a little busy. I'd definitely buy it, but it's not the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndyGuy4KI Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 What about going back to the original logo in post 75, but adding "KICentral, The guide to KI" logo frame you used in post 84 and make the colors in the frame match the original logo?
