Looking for help with my logo...

[SellersSign&Design]

I have posted my logo on here before to get feedback. After changing it a million times, I haven't come up with anything I am happy with yet. I guess its just a creative block when it comes to my own stuff, but its driving me crazy. Would anyone be interested in putting something together for me? I don't expect it to be free, but I don't want to spend a fortune on it either.

The first one I was somewhat happy with:

The second one that I use on my polo shirts currently:

And lastly the latest logo for use pretty much everywhere. I spent some time drawing up the scramble, so I would like to use it for certain things, but it doesn't necessarily have to be a part of the primary logo.

If you couldn't tell by looking at the logos, I am a fan of the script fonts for the "Sellers". I also love retro designs, and I like for my logos to remind customers of a fire department, because that is 90% of the work I do.

Do what you want, but by posting here.... you're either gonna get 1,000 lame ideas and p!ss people off when you don't like or use them.... or the really good people aren't gonna contribute to be in a slugfest. You'd do better by finding out who all would be interested in bidding on doing this for you, get some references and pay them their fee.

I'm not gonna name the people I like here, but suffice it to say, there are some very competent people here who would make you happy.

If you want to go the route you're taking..... try doing it yourself and ask for guidance. Otherwise, it's not fair to the people who do this for a living.

I'd be interested in doing a logo design for you. PM me and we can work something out.

I highly recommend Neato from SignAmigo.com. His style would work well for you I think.

I'm definitely not looking for people to come up with a logo and post it here. I am just asking to see who would be interested in doing it, I know there are quite a few people here that would do an excellent job.

Considering your niche I like what you have.

Like # 1 has a nice retro feel to it.

[Pixels Are Bad Mmmkay?]

Considering your niche I like what you have.

I couldn't agree more. They all three say exactly what you specialize in without having to literally spell it out and they are all nice logos in their own right. I really dig the SSD monogram, or scramble as you say. I didn't know that terminology until now. Thanks.

The first one is kine of ok if you like that sort of thing. Lose the 'LLC', no one cares, and if you must have something in that space, find some non-text thing.

The second one is dreadful. That silly fire department thing does nothing and and ampersand [&] has little business floating around all by itself.

The third effort looks like the fifth runner up in a movie marquee contest conducted in hell.

Like you, I couldn't ever come up with anything I liked, so I took the plunge, and asked Phillip to help. He knocked it out of the park, and I later asked him to layout a business card for me, and he nailed it first try...

I really like the top logo you posted...

1 and 3 look good IMO. 3 is what I would use. It has the scramble, pinstriping and gold leaf elements as one would see on fire apparatus. The combination of a circle and rectangle adds visual interest.

Ya done good.

#3 is more interesting.

 

[BIG EASY DOES IT]

The first thing I thought when I saw #3 was SD Padres. The D is almost an identical match.

 

[DirtyD]

Did you create the engine turn or is there a color swatch for that somewhere? I use CorelDraw

 

[Jackpine]

I like the 3rd one.

 

[SellersSign&Design]

Thanks for all the input, maybe what I have isn't as bad as I thought. As far as the scramble looking like the Padre's design, I'm not a big sports fan so I had to look it up. I guess there are some similarities, but I can honestly say my scramble was hand drawn directly from my imagination! The top two logos have the BD Sign Supply gold leaf fill. The bottom logo is my own custom designed gold leaf fill.

I think you should keep what you have for now...

the font with the swooshy underline on #2 is nice. all else not so much. since you do a lot of work for fire trucks the font, the turned gold and the red work. instead of using the shild, a tagline that says what you do would work better

I am really digging the third one.
