Hi!


The logo of my club can be seen in the upper left-hand corner of our webpage:
http://www.c4fencing.se/

It is based on the town coat of arms, as are many other sport club logos in this town - the only difference being which sport equipment is shown together with the COA.

As an added benefit (?) you can see me among clubmates on the webpage.
Have a nice time!

Peter Gustafsson

updated logo from MU

We just got these back from the graphix wizards...
There's 2 logos, the first is for the arm-patch, the second for shirts etc..

(the shield style logos are going to be re-worked to use as special "honor" patches/prizes for our seniors )

Here is a link to the club logo I designed about a year and a half ago when pushing for a more uniform marketing strategy:

http://bsufc.iweb.bsu.edu/fencing-club-logo1.jpg

My club doesn't have a patch yet. We have a few designs I have made but we still need to have a majority vote on one before anything is ordered.

I'll agree that a lot of these other logos and patches are fantastic and well laid out, but like you said, simple designs are also easy to manipulate. I use the same layout for the club web site, business cards, and flyers. The whole idea is to make everything match so people can recognize it better. My problem is adapting the logo into a good patch design that is simple, yet classy and eye catching.

I'm going to try to attach the patch for my (school) team. It's a mermaid tail grasping a sabre, as the mermaid is on our school seal. My club has a nice patch, too, but since I'm not responsible for it I won't post it.

Both patches were made by an operation called Prism Patches. They did a great job on each and I would definitely recommend them.

I suppose the other end of the mermaid might have proved problematic?

I love this one! It's so original. The same old crossed swords gets dry after a while.

Yeah, the Back Bay Ladies' Association* wouldn't let us have boobies on the patch.

With a name like that I presume they prefer the display of tail.

Here's the design for ours (sorry it's so big, don't particularly feel like resizing it right now). The actual patch turned out very nice, and all of the fencers really like it.

I had 2 (two, no more, no less) of a 9" tall patch made by K.K. Paddywhacks. Good quality work. They'll deal in small quantities. Not sure if they have a policy on international orders or not, but you can always try.

personally, I don't see why it was necessary to reinvent the wheel in this case...

The schools original logo would have done just fine. I could only find a greyscale version, but picture this in red and white with a little more texture in a few places: https://www.commschool.org/uploaded/...entry/seal.gif

somebody really vetoed this for that reason? given that it's the school's symbol, that's kind of odd...
