NESR racing Logo competition


OK peeps. I am sure there are a few wizards with graphics out there. I want people to come with a logo for NESR racing, using the NESR graphics from the website and any other things that grab your imagination. I am attaching the basic logo for you to go by. I want to include the slogan "It's not how fast you ride, it's how you ride fast" and a picture of a cornering racebike.

The one we eventually use will earn the author a free cap, polo shirt and pit shirt in exchange for the rights to use the logo on the products and bikes. It will also be used on a banner for the racetrack ez-up.


Go for it! I would like to see entries coming in asap as we need to move fast on the shirts and caps. The design doesn't have to be super intricate and artsy, just eye-catching.

I can't believe NO-ONE can design a logo. Oh well, leave it to me then, but it'll probably be crap.

Whoa, how was this thread here for two days and I didn't even see it?! I'll try to come up with something today but I've been in a creative slump lately...so I probably won't come up with anything good.

Holy crap, that's awesome!!

How about changing the 'E' in NESR to the other one (I think it's better).

I don't know how the photograph will come out at the stitching process, but it's worth a try.

You da man, JC

Cool, let me know if you want anything else changed. I can even try to make that photo less photographic and more graphic if you want....I dunno exactly how it would come out tho.

I would try to come up with a logo if I had some time.

I've actually done it before and I've got lots of the toys for doing so. (Scanner, cameras, drawing tablets, too much imaging software, etc...)

I'd be surprised if you even got a satisfactory print of the motorcycle photograph.

I'd try to turn it into line art or something and make it black and white. Maybe turn the photo grayscale, run an edge detection tool, then invert it or something to try and get something with nice solid lines.

The big font is <a href="../linkedto/battle.zip">Battlefield</a>.

The small font is <a href="../linkedto/bankgothic.zip">Bank Gothic</A>.

now we're gettin' somewhere, methinks.

looks awesome, dude. just a *wee* bit worried about the light shading, but i guess it depends on how big it's being stitched.

Do you have a larger version of that race picture somewhere on the web, without the blending around the corners?

Just wondering if I can look at the original.
