Logo for school.

This is two versions for my school's "Link Crew". It's basically this club thing of people that help orient the freshmen that are coming in. They also organaze activities and stuff.

These are two logos for their tshirt. This will go on a purple (#C301FB) tshirt. It also had to be yellow-ish/gold-ish, since our school colors are purple and gold (ugh, I know).

These entries are for a contest, and we can submit unlimited amounts so I made two radically different ones.

Tell me what to change, or improve on. Also if you have a better concept/idea tell me also.

Maybe incorporate the rings inside the boxes on #2 (or make them more apparent).. but besides that they both look cool.

The first one looks more like something my high school would have done.

I like the second one ... but you should add the rings to the second one somehow.

The first one looks like something a school would use.

nice...but you have to remeber that you are doing print work and your images aren't vector graphics so you can't make them bigger.
So you should make Really big images or then do them as vector.

I cant help but think "3com" http://3com.com/images/common/en_US/3com_logo.jpg

just shoots in my head.

Hm, they didn't tell us anything about sizes. I mean, some people are just drawing it on paper and then submitting it. I think only two people, me included, are doing it the digital way.

Yeah, although I've seen the 3Com logo before I didn't come up with the idea from that... too bad 3Com is still going to sue me.. :D

I think they are pretty basic, but the first one actually has something to do with "linking" so I would have to say go with the first ones :P because the other one doesnt really have any relation to the name other then the words.

the boxxes were the best. but with logos, 3d stuff is kind of akward

i also like where the second one is going...
but i think u need to focus more the on the text for a logo
the first puts too much emphasis on the rings
and the second has potential to turn into a banner and not a logo (tho i lov that texture)

cheers

The text on http://slonik.homestead.com/files/back1.gif I don't like. It's shiny at some places and not shiny on others. And the links don't look nearly as good as the front. Overall, I like the second design because it looks good. Would be proud to wear a t-shirt like that.
