Mark W Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 one color...means one color, and when you are printing things black = a color :) just an FYI for those working for this, I'm about to go on vacation in a few hourse but I basically do logos and other design work for a living. KISS = keep it simple stupid :) Work with a basic font that mr. heatsink likes and work around it. ← Doesn't black sometimes just get refered to as a 'key' colour or something like that, meaning you can use it but it isn't actually one of the print colours? Ah but do you know what it stands for? :) Fat.Bald.Men No joke, it actually does! ← They were under legal pressure to change it from that though, weren't they? So they just came up with Fire Beer Mayhem? Or is that just them making fun of the 'tard BMXers who didn't know it was Fat Bald Men or something... Stupid world.

Heatsink Posted September 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 To clear up confusion: When printing you have the colour given by the media you print on (background) and then the logo should be in one colour on this. The logo should be in one colour so it's affordable to print because for example, when screen printing, for each colour a screen has to be made up at £20. Then there's the additional cost of performing each print as well. This all adds up so before you know it the price of your Tees/bike stickers has doubled! KISS is indeed the key :) You'll notice that most logos are very printing friendly by only being in the one colour and working on whatever background colour required. Think of Selectbikes, Tartybikes, Fluid23 etc. In this way for, you can produce black text on clear background stickers for all bike frame colours except black, and say, a version which is white logo on clear or white background for black bikes. Keep up the good work! Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RicH_87 Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 ^^^haha i saw a picture like that on google and thought a logo in the middle would be sweet, there's noway i could pull it off though. I think that's onto a winner with a bit of tweaking. Like make it looks less 'real' and make the logo more prominent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RicH_87 Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 maybe work off that. I certainly think it looks nicer cropped, cos at the moment there too much heatsink not enough logo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punkrider Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 Not sure on the logo's with a picture of a heatsink on it, it's too much like the old one :P" Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicH_87 Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 yeh good point, forgot about that. that old logo is f**king ass kick, so a new heatsink based one wouldn't come close anyway. Think i'll leave it to the pros, i don't even want pads. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
