Im ready for a new one.

This site is about price gouging on gas. It will be a bit odd as it needs to go on this background

I dont have any ideas yet so I am open to anything. Need it kind of quick so we'll call it on 09-08-05 at 8:00 PM pacific time.

Site is www.stopthegouge.com

"Stop The Gouge" should be the focus of the logo.

Thanks in advance.

Eric

Hi
Here are my designs

Hope you like them

**zman** · 09-07-2005, 11:05 AM

Very nice guys.

So far I am with 170's second design.

**lilgee** · 09-07-2005, 11:19 AM

Ill make more later.

**zman** · 09-07-2005, 11:58 AM

lilgee I really dig that second one but Im not sure about the font.

For some added info, the site is going to be exposing the oil companies and what they are doing to us as far as gouging us for profits. With that being said the fonts kinda need to be in your face.

Stop The Gouge is the first thing I want people to see. I want that message to get across right away.

No sub titles needed.

I can change the font for you.

**zman** · 09-07-2005, 12:06 PM

Yeah do something with the font and we may be going in the right direction. I like the gas pump action.

lilgee, just because he said he liked mine does NOT give you the right to copy it - the stop sign. zman, I hope you noticed this

Matt

**lilgee** · 09-07-2005, 04:12 PM

i didnt copy your'z, a friend gave me tha idea duh. I dont have to copy someone esle work.

Stop the press.....

Call the United States' Department of Transport.....

Matt of 170Designs has exclusive rights to the globally-recognised STOP sign.....

It doesn't exactly take a genius to link road signs to a site related to driving, and I dare say this particular 'icon' has been used before. Or are you a pioneer in this field, the only man EVER to think of using one of the most common road warnings for a car-based (or anything else based, for that matter) website?

Somebody post a design with a red traffic light, quickly, before those become outlawed as well.....

Ok, I am done with this thread. My entry has been removed. Take care guys. Professional designers do not repeat designs.

Zman, if you are interested in my logo, please just PM me.

P.S. LGR, his stop sign is in the exact same spot as mine, so therefore it is not only just the idea, it is the exact look of it too. Please learn some design etiquette, ***** ***.
