what would be the best way to layout this logo onto trailer?
hi all, just a quick one………..
we are designing a print for the side of a metal sided trailer, only at the basic design stage at the moment, any assistance or advice appreciated.
cheers

Lose the drop shadow on the number.
Change the other drop shadow to a soft grey.
That large block of sub copy could be placed inside of a panel and reverse cut.
That would help to "ground" the kart.
That’s what I’d suggest.

PS
went to a kart championship in England this past May,
to watch my signwriter friend Catherine.
She’s hell on wheels! -
hi jill, cheers for the reply.
i have added a background colour, changed the shadow on the name and removed the shadow on the number, as well as removed the sub text.
what do you think??
karting is a very exciting and exillarating sport, everyone should have a go…………

No….while the design looks 100% better….
now it is overwhelmed by the background.
Remember that just because you CAN print a rainbow, it doesn’t mean you have to!
Remember the KISS principle.

Just a rough idea. Trying to make the photo more of a feature.

that looks great andy, cheers
just a quick one though, how did you create the shape to the base of the pic?
cheers

It’s just a cropped bitmap. I rubbed out bits of the photo until it looked right, then drew a frame and added a shadow.

i’ve tried to create something similar but can’t get the shape/ angle of the frame.
cheers

What I did was draw a rectangle and then use the ‘add perspective tool’ (in Coreldraw) to get it at a suitable angle etc. I then used this as a guide to crop the photo to. Then I outlined it to make the white frame and added a drop shadow to it.
Here’s another example. It’s quite easy once you try it out a few times. Easier in Photoshop.

I like it…lots.
But I think you need to either bump up the "create a new look" part
or else put it over the helmets.
This has been interesting to watch!
love….Jill
