Which do you like best?
1)
I prefer the one with a pair of cans on myself. Nice.
I go for the plectrum shapes one meself, Nice and simple, efficient. The Headphones looks a bit 'cheesy', something you find in clipart, Headphones are more related to DJ-ing. Also NWB writing looks good..
I like the 3 plectrum ones without the headphones. Im still a big fan of no.1 as it would reduce down well really small. The other logos would struggle as a mini logo in the top left of a website. The others would work better on a tee/print
No1, Dix point,that concludes the bidding from B&B
Yeah Numero Uno por favor...new page snapshot looks frikkin smart..
1 or 8 do it for me, although 1 reminds me of a 70s tv station logo so 8 gets my douze point. Home splashpage looks awesome
Looking great. What new features might we expect?
ooo..i just got deja vu.. look northwest is the logo it reminds me of..now poor stuart hall is reduced to sellin tents and outdoor equipment for a livin..ah well..juex sans frontiers Rodney.
A full features list will be released shortly. Me and woody are working very hard at the moment to get the new site up and running asap. Expect the usual, proper profiles, music, photo, gig listings, and charts + much more.
some of them look like alien heads...and alien with headphones? hats that all about then?
E.T. headphone home of course !!
ooooh, i like the first logo best. And that front page shot looks sh*t hot.
Got to be numero uno Mr MWB - simple and effective (and it would look great on T-shirts, caps, mugs etc etc), plus ofcourse the 'I'm on NWB' stickers I'll be doing for you so we can all stick them on flight cases, monitors, bass players etc etc!
No 1 for me. Home page looks good. and Tahnks for all the effort, I know what it takes.
Oh yeah, if you hadnt noticed, you can now put photos in blog entries!
I like the one with the guitar headstock on and the larger "NorthWestBands" title.. It immediately tells people that its guitar bands that they're dealing with and not DJs, cds, music players, or owt like that...I incorporate the old red white & blue NWB logo on my posters that I send to venues, and also my Lazzy Band business cards, so my decision for the new look one will be based on those factors (X Factors!? NWB style!)..... I thank you. :-)
Excellent designs. 1 is a cool looking logo but 5 has a clearer theme of live music.1 would also work well as a smaller icon or tee shirt, I think.Who's done the graphic design?
Yea #1 prob best design 9but in purple of course ........or #5 but with an Ibanez headstock...of course !!!!!
Definitely number 1
Yea toss up between 1 and 5 and the homepage is amazing(Scary int he!)
Got to be 5. 1 looks like a rams head with NWB in front of it..
Rams head?? I think that says more about your mind :-)
number one is the eye catcher, maybe the nwb in red. then you have a tricolour logo. i like the word tricolour i,m going to use it often as tricolourly possible.
posted bt Mr NWB "Rams head?? I think that says more about your mind :-)" Ooooh...No need to be rude... i was simply adding my opinion to the thread.... i see a Ram head down charging the letters NWB... surely someone else sees it...
DF, did you not know, every NWB blog post has to end with the obligatory "NWB innuendo". Rob dog and sabre are the experts in it.
lol, rams head. I see it too! Or maybe a badly deformed, traingular plectrum faced Princess Leia.
ok, i've removed the ones which nobody voted for, and put up some new ones, which I much admit are VERY GOOD contenders. I really like the NWB with the headstock bit flying off. Also the NWB with the headphones would be very cool as a "NWB FAN" logo... we could have a different logo for fans, bands and venues.
Maybe, they would work well as NWB icon set. - just flying some ideas about
I like the idea of custom band/fan/venue logos. For me personally, the ideal logo would probably be some kind of bastard offspring between 1 and 2... Great choice sticking Uncle Rotter on the main page, by the way - will hopefully scare away any spammers and ne'er-do-wells :D
No worrys Mr NWB.. Got to say the new number 2 is my bang on favourite up to yet...looks proper.. Can i also add, this site just keeps getting better, there must some awards we can put you up for, its bazzin man.
I must admit, no.1 is still my favourite, as your main one.Your icon set is interesting... headphones for the fans who are the listeners.... No.2 for the bands... and for the venues... hmm.. maybe do one with a roof on? Or maybe make the N of NWB into a note like so..
Meant like this:
or maybe that looks cheesey??
i just coloured the nwb letters red on a paint program and it looks good in tricolour, opps i said it again, "we are the nights from tricolour"
wow wow hang on here how are you putting notes on the screen?
with the power of my mind, Pete. My tricolour mind.
im sat here franticaly cutting and pasting and copying and stuff, so come on whats the magic word, please maybe
just post the url of the image
Pete, click View>Source (ctrl-u) on Firefox/Opera) and all will become clear... ...Or more likely, not clear at all, depending how much you understand web coding :D Quick explanation: it's witchcraft
Pete, url is the web address of the image location. Ends in .jpg or .png or .gifRight click whatever image you want, select 'copy image location' (image location is the url) and then paste it into here. Like the youtube vids.
wicked, thats as clear as mud, will work on it, thanks bat
no 1 and no 5 ..very cool
i like 2 and 5, surprise surprise spot the guitarist etc!!, if i had to choose number 5 Rob(errrrr....guitar) HOTD
ok, i am trying to post a modified image, i right click but dont get a'copy image location' selection option, only copy. this is where you guys find out how thick i realy amm init.
number two and number five the best of the pick so far, methinks? the home page layout ROCKS!! however, might i suggest something more on these lines for a logo?
nice one viking, was scrolling down just then and you scared the S""t out of me, i thought i had done it, lol
[IMG]
how about that then, not so thick now ehh
2 or 5 for the bands ...... bands logo got to have guitar bit on it my tuppence worth
Altho icon sets would be good, i think having one proper one that covers all areas is much better, and everyone can identify this site with the one logo. Also, if you ever printed up merchandise, you'd only have to do one set rather than a set for every logo going.
Could be a NWB tattoo also.
Its not (N)ordic (W)est (B)ands Mr Viking...LOL
Stick to 2 designs...1 ladies, 1 mens and have NWB printed on the back..
shell- awwwww- wolfy is very upset you mocking him-he thought you'd apreciate him as a creature of the "dark side"!! lol!! :-)
Like the look of it, particularly the Uncle Rotter front page feature! How often do the 'featured' bands get changed?
Go with no1. looks really professional! and Millionaire will help promote the site if you back link us ;)
You already have a backlink ? ;-) http://www.northwestbands.co.uk/thetavern
Number 2 is best one! Number 1 looks like a Ram's head.
number 5 with the headstock
or number 1 without the ears and in red and blue like the one added above
Trust me to be different....I'd go for No 2....it's the best design by a mile..... No 1 looks like a fooking Pokemon.....
1. = retail park signage (ESSO, tesco, Burger King) 2. Made for musicians, very good 3. Not bad but that plectrum design isn't very original, reminds me of something but not sure what (LIDL, KFC.....) 4. Made for Hi-Fi enthusiasts 5. Advert for music shop in guitarist mag. I think number 2
No1
still No 1 for us
Number one from the others
