Hello All - Our team is looking for a Logo for our jerseys. Thus we are looking for a one color logo. The backs of the shirts will have the Logo and we are also looking for the front of the shirt to have a small offset logo on the left side. This logo could be the same as the back or a variation. It is a volleyball team and the name is ABEKAT ANARCHY - Abekat is danish for monkey. The logo on the back should contain the team name and it is this logo I am most interested in. I am not a designer and thus I will have to be educated on what format would work best for me to be able to download and make a screenprint..I believe jpeg would be fine but I could be way off.

The contest will run until February 2, 2007. If I find a winner here I will pay $40.00 either by paypal or money order. I have a few people working on the logo locally but the designs are a little too folk artsy for the team.

Thanks.

The best format would be an illustrator EPS, since it can be resized without any quality loss. In case you want to print it in big sizes, which youll probably want to :closedeyes:

I was just looking at some of the soccer logos in the photo albums and was very impressed. The challenge for the volleyball logo is making one which will have the same impact but only using one color.

This site has some very talented individuals.

My father is from Denmark. I am hoping to visit for the first time this June.

Alright, tried making som logos.. some in 1 color, some in 2 (i just wanted to try how it looked like)
these are just sketches.. ideas.. so if you like one of them ill make it better and more detailed (if possible with just one color.. not many vector-shadows on a monkey there :))
(all made in illustrator)

Good start - but the monkey can be just a head or torso - or doesn't even have to include a monkey - Could be very minimalist with just outlines..looking for something somewhat agressive. Should have the name - I do like the font you used. The monkey can be hitting the volleyball or the volleyballcan be seperate or not even included (if there is not a volleyball I would like the word volleyball included with the name) I can post something I was thinking about tonight.

I was just reviewing the soccer crests (they were in one of the albums on this site) again and they seem like a way to go...at least one option anyway. I could use a large size for the back of the shirts and a smaller one for the front.

The mid left are getting to be more what I was envisioning...I will post some of "Crests" that I have seen and see if you can incorporate the logo into it.
