Hi all,

I mentioned to the group last week that I would see if I could come up
with some logo ideas for the VLC.  Well, I've been working on it a
bit, and have posted one of the ones I like best so far.  Check it out
on brickshelf, at:

   http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=1131

The logo is fairly simple, 2 dimensions, basic colours only, and
compresses nicely.  For tighter spots on the web site, or wherever, we
could use just the lego brick by itself, with the "VLC" on the top of
the stud.  It can easily be rendered in any colour we need.

I tried to capture something of the character of the city in the word
Vancouver (snow capped mountains under a blue sky).  I kind of
"borrowed" the style from the logo of a local tourist outfit.
Somehow, it really appealed to me.

I have lots of other ideas where this one came from, and will develop
them further if necessary.  I do like this one, however.

Okay.  Feedback?  Ideas?  Suggestions?  Don't quit the day job?  Let
me have it.

Robin

(...) Hmm, where did everybody else go? Probably down to Seattle... Anyway, I like it! The logo definitely captures the character of our city with the snow/mountains/sky. It's much brighter than incorporating rain into the logo, hehe... Bryan (24 years ago, 19-Aug-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

Ooops... I love the logo. I think it's fantastic. Now hopefully this will update to the news server. I've been having some trouble lately. Any other comments on the proposed logo? I love it. Xan Robin Sather <robinsather@hotmail.com> wrote in (...) (24 years ago, 19-Aug-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

I thought I'd throw another logo idea up for perusal. Well actually a couple of variations on the same theme. Again, we could use the "woodcut" lego brick alone, without the words, anywhere we wanted to have a more compact "logo". Robin (24 years ago, 20-Aug-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)

(...) I like the logo idea with the mountains the word Vancouver a lot. The only reservation I have is that TLC asked for the "LDRAW" on the studs of the Ldraw logo brick to be removed, so that VLC on teh studs may not be what we want. I can't (...) (24 years ago, 20-Aug-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)
