I NEED HELP WITH MY LOGO!!!!! (help a bitch do shit right the first time!!!) - GoFuckYourself.com

Penny Flame · 05-07-2008, 09:51 AM

Okay, so BlazingBucks is tight enough to help me get a logo together, and hired some dope designers to help me come up with the ultimate "PennyFlame.com" logo.

I'm not very good at giving instructions, so the design didn't come out the way I had saw in my head. I want something with a chicks outline that turns into a flame, and I want colors that are both hot (like fuego) and cool (like "that's the coolest bitch I know!"). Its gotta be easy to read when small and compact enough to make stickers. (I want to "stick" the world.)

I figure you all deal with these kind of things more often than me, (just like I suck a lot more dick than you.....possibly......) and who better to ask for advice on attracting the eye than my favorite forum of wild and wacky webmasters!

What do you think? Which way should I take this?

seeric · 05-07-2008, 09:53 AM

I don't see nothing flamer

Wheres the pic?

Never mind, there isn't a pic. I had a stoner moment for a sec.

LOL.

Sam Granger · 05-07-2008, 09:54 AM

Let me try and mock something up in photoshop...

Penny Flame · 05-07-2008, 10:20 AM

Here are some of the examples that we came up with.....I'm just not feeling it.....

I think it all feels too America. So we changed some of the writing to orange, and then it looks too Hotwheels.....

Should we scrap this shit and start new, and fresh?

What catches your eye in a logo?

gornyhuy · 05-07-2008, 10:25 AM

That little teaser vid with you telling people to put your email in is fucking beautiful. Perfect marketing. If you keep up that personalized "breaking through the screen" interactive flirty angle, you will be a GOLD MINE.

Plus you are damn cute.

So, with that bit of 2cents, you should figure out how to communicate that attitude and personal angle in your branding and logo and site design. There are plent of generic "porn star" looks out there, and plenty of manufactured whitewashed solo girl sites, but you have the opportunity and personality to create something a bit unique here, don't waste it!

mvee · 05-07-2008, 10:28 AM

These come off more like corporate, generica then porn. I would find several examples of what you want like in a logo and what you want to convey with yours.

Mutt · 05-07-2008, 10:33 AM

i agree - the logos aren't cutting it. colors are wrong for one - fonts are lame.

do you have a particular pose of yourself you want for the silhouette/outline of you?

You are right. Nothing catches my eye. Might just be the blue. Red, orange and yellow maybe?

Forget trying to get the "cool" part across, you are not selling Icy Hot. You will be coolest bitch once you have the hottest logo.

RyuLion · 05-07-2008, 10:41 AM

none of those catch my eye either..try something more settle..but wild, something that'll define "you".

RuthB · 05-07-2008, 10:43 AM

How about a copper penny with your head/silhouette/something like that on it (you could be like the Queen! ;)) and have the penny kind of on fire.. (flames circling bottom and firing out top.. surrounding the penny kinda deal.. like the penny is at the heart of the flame)

I'm no designer though, but I always enjoy seeing visual wordplay

(this would potentially work well for stickers too)

Penfold · 05-07-2008, 10:49 AM

Have a look at this portfolio, see if any of the designs tickle your fancy
http://adultdesign.com/des_portfolio.php

Penny Flame · 05-07-2008, 11:22 AM

I want a picture kind of like this......No details of course, I just want the outline of the body.

The Flaming Penny Idea isn't too bad either.....how would it stand as a watermark do you think?

Kimmykim · 05-07-2008, 11:26 AM

Get Twisted Illustration to make you a toon, they are my favorites.

JamesK · 05-07-2008, 11:31 AM

Pete-KT · 05-07-2008, 11:37 AM

BradM · 05-07-2008, 11:38 AM

Those logos aren't the greatest, I can see why they didn't really hit a note with you.

Just my two cents (or two Penny's) but I wouldn't PERSONALLY go down this route on this occasion... Why? well as much as I too enjoy visual wordplay, I think that Penny as a girls name is one thing, but when you take the 'Penny' and make it an actual Penny... It 'could' symbolise 'cheapness'

Either cheapness of the girl, cheapness of the content, or cheapness of the site...
So I would personally think twice about using an actual Penny in the design...

This is NOT me slagging off your input... Just me jumping in with my own personal opinion

Not jumping out at me either.. But I think any logo would look better on a darker/black background too (colors pop much more)

interesting.....I hadn't considered the implications of being a "penny"......
There is a lot of truth behind your opinion, thank you for your input

Penny Flame · 05-07-2008, 12:10 PM

maybe a black background with red/orange/yellow fiery words?

the shape (of me) in red fading to a black flame with yellow/orange writing over?

hmmmmm....

damn you and your poo!

hahaha.. good point though, I didn't put much thought into it really, just figured it combined it all in a reasonably coolish kinda way

Penny.. you could always go for a Beatles feel... Penny Flame is in my ears and in my eyes... blah blah ;) LOL

Yknow though, no matter what your logo, you have a refreshing interactive style that will make it so that whatever logo you choose to go with, your fans and members will remember/recognise it, cos they'll remember you.

RuthB · 05-07-2008, 12:22 PM

hehehe... was just thinking it's a shame you're not a redhead, you could do a silhouette and have a flame burning over your crotch..

fluffygrrl · 05-07-2008, 12:48 PM

Hehe I was bored, so I made you a little something

Not a logo, obviously, but hey.

DamianJ · 05-07-2008, 12:51 PM

OK. No one I know really does this in adult, and EVERYONE in mainstream does.

You want a logo and a logotype. The logo is the nike swoosh, the logotype is the word nike.

Separate them in the brief.

Is 'fire' not just a bit obvious? I would prefer to see a more abstract logo (icon) that you can then use elements of in all aspects of your design, cementing the branding. I am not sure 'fire' really does that.

This is, of course, just my opinion.

(also, get the logo and logotype done in mono first, agree those and then start playing with colour)

Great advice in this thread! If I had to pick one of the original 10, I'd go with 10, but none are really inspirational.

Mutt · 05-07-2008, 07:01 PM

you need something edgier, funkier, grungier - whatever-ier

what you should do is find logos that you like the style of so designers know generally what you like. or even scribble in pencil or ink a general idea of what's in your head - besides pot smoke!

munki · 05-07-2008, 07:05 PM

Piss poor mock... but I was actually diggin these 2, not sure about colors, but with a simple overlay I think you might get closer to what you want...

kesha1 · 05-07-2008, 07:09 PM

Well maybe one....

Okay two....
