Hello - I am looking for a logo for my multisport team (triathlons, running races, bicycling) The contest will run through February 29th a little longer if necessary - but I am under a deadline to get jerseys ordered. The logo is to be used for our team jerseys and t-shirts and maybe on a webpage or newsletter- we are a small non-profit team. I will pay $50.00 by paypal to the winner if I get an acceptable logo.

The team name is EVIL MONKEY MULTISPORT. There does not need to be a monkey involved in the logo. If there is a monkey the preferred image is the classic monkey with the cymbals (I can provide a pic if you do not know what I am talking about) - however we are open to all ideas. You can also use the classic multi-sport symbols (runner, biker, swimmer) The logos can be colorful but should also transfer well to just one or two colors if necessary. A simple distinct logo woul probably work best..and it is possible that we could have a clean simple logo for the front of the shirts and a larger more complex logo for the back. If it turns out that two logos work best, I am willing to pay an addditional $20.00. (The logos will be used on cycling jerseys as well as t-shirts. Take at look at www.champ-sys.com for the type of look we are going for - the have a number of team jerseys in their gallery and this is the place I would most likely be ordering from. i believe that they require EPS files or very hig grade jpeg.

Email me with any questions....I have emailed my plans for this contest to one of the moderators but have not gotten a response - so I assume that I can go forward with it. I have posted on here before and have paid - but do not hesitate to email me with any questions or concerns. Thanks.

BTW, this was done in illustrator so i can provide an eps file.

EDIT: Let me know what you think of the evil monkey heads and the bike / runner, i can incorporate them both into one / change colours etc.

I like the idea of keeping it simple. We need to work the name into the logo - also, the logo almost looks like a very simple swimmer, if you can get the other two sides to look like a biker and runner then it would represent 3 sports and be more in line with the multisport team. Thanks.

I think you need to change the biker and swimmer icons - you cannot really tell what they are. If we are going to have a monkey in the design I think it should be one logo instead of many. I would also like to see the name of the team. Thanks..
jdbadger
The two logos so far are on the right track and I like the simplicity a lot..I would als like to see other logo ideas - here are a few logos that I have seen that interest me.

Thanks for the effort so far..

Good Job - I would love to see it in color...and maybe just try one monkey head centered above the words.
Ben
Yeah, I had two there so you could choose which one you liked.

I'll do a coloured one when I get home smile.gif

Use the monkey head on the left - center it - and put 3 smaller logos (swim bike run stick figures) between the head and the team name


Thanks.

I like this one better - get rid of the red in the teeth and eyes...see if you can make the banner a different color - maybe blue...I like the script but it may be hard to read - see if there is another font that would be a little clearer. Also show me the logo just in black and white if possible. Great job.
damir_zg
I have made a new creation - got inspired from the ones you posted and said you like.

I know its a gorilla and not a monkey but i couldn't find a decent monkey picture to use as a reference and i think gorilla looks way more evil!

There are 3 versions: black&white, blue and green. If you want I can make some more variations with the colors of your choice.

Any modifications considering the font or the position of text are no problem at all.

Hope you like it!

Lastcrime your entry is likely to cause issues.

http://home.arcor.de/raptor99/sig/Evil_Monkey.gif

You will cause problems down the line for evil monkey multisport if you do win. As someone will recognise it as the monkey from Family Guy as it is a direct copy.
Please remember not to blindly copy pictures from the internet and use them for anything but personal use.
Faken
Yep, exactly... anyone submitting copyright images they didn't create can't be considered an entry.
jdbadger
The monkey head did look a little familiar - see if you can get another image or draw a more simplistic version...also incorporate the other changes I mentioned. Thanks.
Scythar
Say,
since you're watching this tread apparently AND your a very big Coral Draw (old name) fan: ther was a tutorial book in full color,
dont remember the name though which had a serious "evil monkey" head with open mouth and teath and slime and all : alway found that one a very nice pictue for inspiration...

I"ll see if i can find the original picture.
damir_zg
made some last minute changes to the font and the size of the letters

I like the logo but some of the club members like your first one better without the Gorilla..can you change up your first one a little bit..maybe with the font and try some different colors? Thanks.
jdbadger
Since I have given you guys some different ideas I am going to extend the contest until Monday. So far everyone has done a good job. Have a great weekend.
Bouzy210
This is my entry. I can make any changes. The logo is simple and can easily translate into any color. If you want changes with the monkey, athlete figures, text, or anything let me know.

damir_zg
Here is the first logo in three different colors and with a better font.

Good luck guys! bigwink.gif
damir_zg
Thanks soldier!

I made a color combination.

Bouzy210
Thanks, that monkey took a ridiculous amount of stroke paths with pen tool to make.
Ben
Here's the changes you asked:

You can choose which one you like the most, or have all of them.

I decided to go with red instead of blue like you asked because I overall it just makes more sense with the text and logo. However if you'd like to see it in blue it won't be a problem.
Bouzy210
Hear are some more examples. Again anything can be changed but I just though I would post some more ideas...

damir_zg
Simple one.

I dont have time now but i will make the biker and the runner as stylish as the swimmer when i get home from college.

Hope I make it on time. smile.gif

Wow, nice job damir!
damir_zg
Thank you!
Bouzy210
Hear is another version. (Any of these versions can be combined into one logo are changed) but I figured I would make the figures better like others. (And obviously if prefired these figures can go in place of the figures on my other versions)

damir_zg
And a monkey from me:

I like the expression in the eyes of the monkey.
damir_zg
Thank you. I went for the evil look.

Here is one more colored version:

Just a quick suggestion, damir. It might look better on the last two you posted if the monkey's outline was a bit thicker. The one-pixel line is a bit too thin for me...idk.
damir_zg
Thank you for the suggestion. I also think it looks better now.

Dragolux
Yes, much better. The one before didn't fit in with the think lines of the rest of the logo.

Looks great!
jdbadger
WOW!! All these logos are awesome..I figured that there would be one that just stood out above the rest but all of them are really good. I am going to have the team look them over the next day or so and we will have a winner picked by Friday. Thank you everyone for all of the hard work.
davidk20
Any changes to mine in any style you like can be worked to suit your needs if you wish.

Awesome logo - I am having the whole team look at it tomorrow along with the rest of them. I really like the bike, runner, swimmer logos.
jdbadger
After having the team vote on the logo it came down to 3 votes for Damir 3 votes for mediadesign 2 votes for David and 2 votes for Bouzy. As you can see we were pretty divided because all of the logos were so good. We finally decided to have Damir and Mediadesign work together and they came up with the winning logo based upon a combination of their designs.. Way to work together guys.

David's logo was either hated or loved by everyone - there was no in between.

Thanks for everyone's hard work on this. You are all extremely talented.
Aadon
All logo's are great...They have give time to make it..Thanks for posting it.
