    Okay so I own my own rap record label, [​IMG] and am looking for a decent logo.

    Suggestions
    Someone suggested me the idea of a little gangster dude (eg. with a cap, baggy jeans, and the words "[​IMG]" accross his shirt etc) I like this idea a lot. Or maybe some other kinda mascot logo. a text logo would be fine though, however would prefer the whole mascot idea.

    some examples:

    http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/5c/So_so_def2.JPG/100px-So_so_def2.JPG


    Payment will be via PayPal or Moneybookers. (Note that the prize may increase as a "thanks" if I really like your design.) Contest will run for a few days.
    Questions? Reply to this thread or email me at [​IMG]

    Can you explain the concept of Straight Boppers, i cannot understand what is it related. I created a bit non-relavant or a bit nonsensible image, but dont know if it explains what you have described.

    (Note I put it in image form so that this page wouldn't get indexed under a search engine when you type in my label name...)
    Anyway [​IMG] is an Urban Record Label...as in hip-hop, rap, grime etc...just post the image anyway will be fine :)

    lizzy4, you can't just steal that other person's image (from a pretty well known record label) and use it for mine. It has to be completely unique, they are just for inspiration.

    Amazing, just what I had in mind! A few its of feedback though.
    1. Any chance of making the guy black.
    2. Would prefer a different colour trainers (sneakers...?) but don't know what would match. In the new draft can you do a version with both the current yellow trainers and a new colour, of your choice.
    3. I heard something about vector images, where if you enlarge them they don't pixelate? Can you make the new version like this if it isn't already? :)
    edit: just realised, initials for my record label wouldn't be an 'S' as shown in the chain, would rather be a 'B' but im not sure if that'll work.

    I assume that it's your work of course, it's pretty much what I envisioned :)
    Hoping to make the transaction tonight, no biggy if you're busy though.

    thanks again
    edit 2: I assume the final product will be 100% quality too? (say, .png format)? as by looking carefully you can tell that due to the .jpg extension there is a loss in quality

    Great logo surenther. Perhaps some 'bling' on his fingers would go down
    well too. Just a thought but even without that it still looks great.
