Here's a try.

It's not any comparison to yours though, Don.

Mike

that s cool man put those on some of the old gas station style shirts

I like it signshop. An idea would be to do the same concept with different styles of grilles, like a 32 grille. But that may be too many different ones to actually print though.

Mike, that is fantastic! Man, I wish I had just a small bit of that kind of artistic talent. I am good at stick figures though. By the way, I'm also doing the same thing for www.clubchopper.com if you want to play more (and take home another 100). I know you said you don't want the money, but...I feel good paying it. That's awesome work!

How about something with the original design that has this nice plastic, 3d look that mike came up with. It's a nice insignia!

My son has a idea. How about a picture of the christmas tree and the lights spell out club hot rod.com. under the tree put the slogan "LET THE FUN BEGIN" or " WHERE THE FUN BEGINS"

Mike;This really looks professional.How would it look with a gray background with a few rods phantomed in , in the background(barely visable)? Also the border to be an oval.

I hope I'm not too late to get in on this. I've got 17+ years of experience in this field PLUS I'm a car fanatic so I thought I'd throw a couple ideas into the ring here...



Any thoughts?

Any thoughts?

Just thought I'd make one more comment here with my logos. These were created in Adobe Illustrator...100% 'vector' art so these can be scaled to any size you can imagine without any loss of quality. Spot colors can also be added for more impact but if a logo can't work well in black and white it is not going to work well when color is added. Just some simple, standard logo design rules.

Keep in mind, any of these 'rasterized' images created in Photoshop will not be well-suited for scaling up to T-shirt size, not to mention many of these would have to be printed in 4-color process which is much more expensive than a vector logo created in 'spot colors'. For example, take an avatar (or any small image) off of this site and try to blow it up to T-shirt size on your printer...it'll get 'grainy' and fuzzy rendering it useless unless it's creted in vector or created as a raster at it's original intended size.

Just thought I'd share some of my 17+ years of graphic design knowledge here...hope you find it helpful.

Please note...I'm by no means trying to 'bash' anyone here. There are a lot of people trying to pitch in some ideas...some of which are pretty good. I'm just preparing you before a design is chosen that won't work well when printed. If one of these 'rasterized' designs are chosen, it might be necessary to have it re-created in the proper software to allow it to be used properly.

Thanks!

Denny, if you win would please shave your arms maybe the Tshirt
will fit hey! you have to add my wagon on there or at least my
47 fleetline,, cool work bud !!
