BadBeatsPoker.net Artwork Needed

[DevilFish73]

Hey Scott, Jmmy and anyone else heading back out to play in the Main Event or any other event... We HAVE to get some shirts or tags made up and fast... That would be great exposure for our group... Even if we don't get another bracelet...lol...

I think we need an official logo first....

time for the creative juices to flow....

alot of larger forums also have online stores where you can purchase things such as hoodies hats and tshirts...

this could be a great way to gain some money for the site and also a little recognition if we keep having players go far in these live events...

I think we need an official logo first....

Agreed totally.

We have enough donations to get started on this. We just need some good logo ideas first...

Bad Beats Business Cards??

What would be really cool, and this would obviously be later on after you sell a few shirts and get things going. Jerseys. People could have a jersey and the number could be their favorite hand. We all have that hand that we play because we think we win with it more than we should. Like for me its 5-3. Then our forum screen name could be on the back. Or maybe just sell jerseys with whatever the logo turns out to be and people could take it and have a number and their name put on it. That would probably be alot easier.

I have no artistic talent so Im no help in the logo department. I searched around on the net to try to get some ideas because i have a buddy that can draw really well, but most of the shirts I see on line and the ones i see people wear are rather cheesy.

I will make a trip to columbus one of these days and meet you all in person and play a little poker.

I've got some ideas, but I don't have the right program to execute them at the moment.

i still vote that card protectors would be a great idea...

[DevilFish73]

I love the Jersey concept.. We could always order our own to start it off after we get a logo... Brandi get it done... I also like the card protector too...

These first two are not very professional or very good for that matter (hey it's after 1 am, what can you expect?), but they are a start to getting the creative juices flowing and helping me get to know this new software. I started out by manipulating some stock photos from the internet, but anything we want to use we will probably have to create from scratch to avoid any copyright infringements. I can probably take some pics if someone has a good set up with a good surface and good chips/cards, mine are cheapies. But anyway, hopefully this will induce some ideas from the rest of you and we can work on getting this going a little faster.

In my opinion any logo that we do needs to be pretty simplistic to be used on shirts if they are going to be emboidered vs. screen printed. But we could have a more detailed logo for business cards/web use.

Feel free to add your .02 cents

I like the first one...

I also like the poker chips used in the banner above...

with these green backrounds a nice green chip might make a nice little logo...

Here are some quick ideas that I thought looked okay using the letters B,B,P and fusing them together. The middle two has one with and without the letter P highlighted.
