Logo for my band
« on: August 05, 2010, 06:29:09 PM »

Hey my band needs a logo badly. The band is called Facade, so the logo should be something mysterious maybe, anybody got any good, serious ideas? I know some of you guys are good with graphics, could anybody throw me some ideas? We need a good one by wednesday. I dont ask you guys for serious help often, so some help now would be greatly appreciated.

Our website is www.myspace.co m/facade6 if you want to check us out to get an idea of what a logo should be.

Sup Robert. Serious pose right there.

If you can't get anyone here to make something, try asking Ricardo. Seriously, he's pretty good with photoshop.

You need something like this... http://www.albumds.com/site (or yes, photo shop will do the same thing or free photo edit programs). Take some good pics of your band, do some editing to them for the look you want and see what you can come up with. I know the program is for albums that I linked to, just give it a chance and see what you can come up with (just play with the free trail).

In other words, drop the thought of a "logo" all alone and add photos of the members with the name. Think of it as a record album cover and not a sign.

Thanks for the effort everyone. Especially you Waffleboy. And Loaded i'd use your idea only we need an actual logo. We have a person working on our album cover art already, as well as a photographer taking our pictures and editing them so that's taken care of. The logo is for business cards, flyers, posters, ads, etc.

Anyways i messed around with the logo i came up with and made it a little darker and easier to read. Any suggestions?



Idk if i told you guys or not but my band is starting to go places. We've got some connections now with new companies that are willing to put our name out, and we even got ourselves a full page ad in Thrasher magazine and another new magazine coming out called Living Ink. We're also sponsored by a clothing company called Knuckle Grind Gear which is giving us some pretty cool shirts as well as some nice connections with other places. Its all happening kinda fast though so we'll see how it goes. We're playing a battle of the bands in October if anyone wants to come see us haha. Here's the flyer.

No problem.  Anyway, I'm no artist, but the E looks a little out of place to me.  The others are all pretty solidly colored, then the E is different.  Though  I guess it could be an accent?

never really noticed that. In the first version each letter was a little different until i filled some in to make it bolder. I didnt change anything on the E though. I'll try that.

Edit: I filled it in but it looks almost too dark now.

I listened to your band, I honestly think the singer needs some work but that's all I heard.

Just an idea

 

Based off my old band's logo.

 

My old stuff: http://atsanitysend.dmusic.com/

Also, something way out of left field

I like the first two. Not quite sure about the third one though.
