    Hi Monkz,

    Thanks for the submission. Not really what I want, I'm afraid.

    I'm looking for a logo on a black background that's either white or has colour, but has to stand out from the background. If it works on a white background then so much the better, but my main concern is a black background.

    I'm looking for something that's fun but distinctive, possibly more cartoon-ish but I don't want to sway people too much this early on as you will probably come up with something better than I can think of.

    Thanks,

    Now I do get what you mean. I was going for something professional logo for, I thought yours is allied to business. My bad, but I don't really get into cartoon stuffs so wouldn't able to do get into it. I will try, and this' the best I got from my side as professional.

    Dear All,

    Many thanks for the submissions so far. I've left some comments below plus some more info about the vehicle itself.

    Colleen

    The eyes are great.
    I like the fonts. The word "Black" is good, however the word "Betty" I don't like the chequered flag effect - to me it portrays speed or race track.

    Ceaser2
    Concept is good, I like the outline of a vehicle, however it's the wrong vehicle (my fault I should have been more specific please see below).
    I like the fonts.

    Thanks for the submission, I'm afraid that it's not really what I'm after. It would look great on a beer bottle though.

    The vehicle itself
    The vehicle is a reasonably standard 4x4 off roader. It is a Land Rover Defender 90 (short wheel base) Station Wagon, i.e. hard top with rear windows. Vehicle is black with alloy wheels. Windows are tinted black, rear glass and side glass is privacy glass. Vehicle looks stock and is not modified externally. It can exceed the speed limit but that's not the image I wish to portray.

    The vehicle use
    It is a family SUV that will be used to subtly promote a family orientated website that lists country (not music) shows, i.e. agricultural or county fairs, in the UK although the website make go global if successful. The vehicle will remain un-sign-written so that it doesn't stand out too much, but will have the logo on the rear (and possibly front wings) and used to travel to the shows and parked in public car parks (lots). The idea is the have the vehicle on the website but also to have competitions of where did you see Black Betty.

    The logo should represent the name "Black Betty" and a Land Rover Defender 90, the county fairs theme isn't necessary as I already have a logo for the website (which may or may not be put on the vehicle). However if you can get the county fairs theme in as well then that would be interesting.

    Hope the above helps. The following are stock pictures of a Black Land Rover Defender 90.

    Sorry don't like the fairground rides nor the fireworks. It's country shows (i.e. rural and agricultural but not music). I believe the Americans call the same thing "Country Fairs" - hence the confusion - I hate it when the English language is so obtuse!

    If you could make the eyes more of a prominent feature (like your first logo). Thanks for the change to the word Betty.

    If you could add some sort of reference a Land Rover Defender 90 (i.e. front or side view) without destroying the concept then it would be great.

    Ceaser2
    I like both of your designs.

    Zali04
    I prefer the first design as the words are less swirly - they are easier to read at a distance. The first design also looks like the front grill of a Land Rover Defender, if you could add some more "Land Rover"?

    Everybody
    Each design has great ideas and are all different - you guys are making it difficult.

    If you could make the following changes:

    1. Change the word "BLACK" to white colour
    2. Not sure how the Land Rover Defender 90 would look shown fully "parked" level on top of the word BLACK, the same length as the word BLACK. Would you mind doing this and releasing the original as well?

    Please PM with your PayPal details
