HI guys i have recently bought a tyre shop and am needing to make up a new logo for the shop so i can distribute flyers /headded paper / comp slips ect .

i was wondering if there is any photoshop gurus on here that could possibly have a go at designing one for me.

i was thinking of the flyers to be half the size of a4

with the name RUISLIP TYRES LIMITED

I was thinking of a backround of a scoob and a focus st with some tyre names and makes eg firestone ,conti , mich ,ect, but leaving a space for me to add some test at a later date .

i would do it myself but i have no idea how to use photoshop!!

all help would be greatly appreciated and ideas welcome .


many thanks

TBH your best be is to join one of the photoshop forums and ask them very nicely. Or you could offer some sort of discount or a prize for the winner of the best logo/sign (cash normally works) designed by a scoobynet member. Then put it on a poll and let the forum users have their vote to see who wins. Im not sure if the mods will allow this but its worth a try. Otherwise i think ur banging you head against a brick wall here.

I could do it, depending on time + other work, but I'd have to charge a small fee.

noi to the ppl who have done some gfx for you but to look pro you need it to be done right with high res images, good fonts and clearly designed logos depending on the market you are aiming for.

I work in magazine design and we also own a printing company so can help
you with that side of things but tbh the majority of things you end up with which have been done free off forums, altho altruistic, will not be great, as anyone who does this for a living would not do it for free - most designers I know are rushed off their feet!

I don't want to offend anyone but really it's worth getting it right at the beginning so your company has an identity and a "look" across all the stationery/signage. It's all about recognisable branding. Get that right at the outset and it gives you a better chance of getting the company noticed. Think how many logos you recognise even when the company name is not next to it.

It doesn't have to be fancy and have drop shadows etc - a clearly designed illustration can make for a better logo as it's much easier to scale up vector artwork for the side of vans or for your signage - the biggest mistake is getting something elaborate done in Photoshop which looks cool on the web but is completely useless for printing. A lot of ppl don't understand the resolution (dpi etc) needed for printed material/signage/livery.

I hope this info helps...it's come from 20yrs experience in print/design

Good luck with getting the business all up and running

i agree with pmacFTO, I would try and help but am just too busy at the moment.

I've been doing signs/graphix for 15 yrs now



For the design of your shop front it would help if you had the size of the fascia so the design can be based on that
