Title: Possible Image Creation?
Post by: DarkAngel on October 07, 2008, 09:55:54 PM
My brother is thinking about starting his own cable business and is currently getting my dad to play around with different fonts to make a descent enough logo.

But knowing we have some good talent here i would see if any of you could help :), i was thinking about just "The Cable Guy" but the whole 3 words being a bolt of lightning. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Or an easier font to read but with a lightening bolt behind it?

You could do worse with going to somewhere here like I did:

//www.goodprint.co.uk

They have plenty of templates and you can roll you identity out across different stationery.

They also have monthly 50% discount sales and really, at the price, it's a heck of a lot cheaper than litho'ing them.

I have just a shop like the one Pen refers to, and that is really a good way to go about it.

Regarding design FWIW maybe this (http://www.tannersite.com/rules-of-logo-design/) would be a good read
