New MAIW Logo Wanted
New MAIW Logo Wanted
This is an open solicitation to anyone and everyone who would like to help us with the creation of a new MAIW logo. While the ones we have now are fine, as we continue to evolve into the future, we'd like to keep things fresh around here. Eventually we will be migrating to a new version of the forums which will bring us into the year 2009 as far as the forums go. Some new logos to go with that migration would be nice to have.
So if anyone out there reading this has some mad graphic design skills and would like to help us out, we'd love to see what you can come up with. There are no real limitations, the sky is essentially the limit. Your creativity is the only real limitation.
The reward is the same as it is for all the contributors and staffers, just personal satisfaction.
You can attach your logo ideas here for all to see. Maybe we could even vote for the favorites.
There is no time deadline, just like we always say about the packages, it's ready when it's ready.
Thanks in advance.

Now we're talking!
Again please don't feel like this is a competition. We'll use them all if we can. Looking great so far.
Nick, love the retro one!
Mark I see you didn't waste any time getting that Blue Angel in there!

But if it was I knew my favourite already.MIKE JG wrote:Again please don't feel like this is a competition.
Just in case comments/critics welcome - otherwise skip the next lines and go ahead with the next post
@djnocturnal
The blue one is lovely. Blue = Sky
Your bigger one: A different font for the black letters may be better. Also, although I like it how you integrated the aircraft pics into the MAIW letters I guess some may become invisible when it is used in smaller sizes.
@Mike
Not bad at all - keep it simple! Have a look at well known logos: Volkswagen, GE, Boeing, etc.
@Nick
I knew you are a good modeller but did not recognize you being a logo creator

I showed these to My missus and she commented that the simple and clever approach of the one that Mike did is something that could easily be printed onto a T-shirt and be easily recognisable anywhere. Thats my pick already...I'm going to give a couple more a bit of a go but in my opinion Mike_UKMILs version is the winner already LOL.

Mike's first one with the jet as letter A would definately be my choice as well for now. Very professional looking!
I also like the banner idea from djnocturnal with all the small planes, but only as a banner.
And Nick I love the feeling of speed you get from that pair of F-15's!
This is fun Keep 'em coming guys!

I like that. What I think would improve it is if the main logo is metallic black and it and the title have a shadow applied like our current logo.
It might be worth seeing what it looks like in the 3d embroidered look as well.
Then again I hardly qualify as an art critic.

That's what I'm going for; it's a sort of a template that allows for it to be used in several ways; for example, mimicking the current logo's applications:nickblack423 wrote:I showed these to My missus and she commented that the simple and clever approach of the one that Mike did is something that could easily be printed onto a T-shirt and be easily recognisable anywhere.
I made a small change, just bringing the "T" and "A" in "military" closer together because they looked a bit odd before:
Also, wings?
I do like the wings that Nick made; mind if I copy them over to my logo?
