Hey all...I just talked to Gramby, and in his geek-speak terms he explained to me that he thinks trying to convert it to Illustrator will produce a better final product when we blow it up to put it on the template.  So I am shooting him over my Word doc, and he is going to start on it.  I will work with him to tighten it up, and produce a final we are all happy with. Sound like a plan?

Sounds great to me!!!

Gramby, if you don't want or need the Illustrator software, I'd be happy to take if off your hands!

Teniqua from Pactimo emailed me back and said it is not a problem to show our logo to their artist and see what they can do. So as soon as Dan and I get it in to Illustrator, I will send it off and get an estimate on any extra art time, if any, that would be needed above and beyond the 1 free hour.

I am having problems. If my screen was 2feet by 2feet I think I could see it all, but the bottom pane is blocking out the ESCKTC on the logo, and the log is covering the username.  Is there something I can do to view it correctly?

I was able to do it. I liked the first one most! Not a huge fan of adding the water to the swimmer and the shading to the mountains. Just my opinion though! The ESCTC didn't show up on the large image but I could see it in the smaller one so no biggie.

All was well with my viewing pleasure (and it was a pleasure). Great job, and I'm with Jen. I don't mind the water in the swimmer, but the biker in the 1st one is more aero

Yeah, Dan and I agreed that the figures I originally had were cooler and more abstact, but a little thin. The new ones are more bold, but not as cool.

Can we put the photos in someone's album? I can't view Livejournal pages from work. If it's too much of a pain, I can wait till I get home this evening.

Super cool voting method and great job on the images!   I voted #1 because of the figures.  Took me about 100 looks between 1&3, 2&4 to tell that the difference was in the shading of the mountains. LOL

I'm not sure if my votes got in or not. I like the logo - -although I like swimer on one, the biker on another, etc. I'll still be happy. Great job.

Sorry this has taken so long, but Pactimo is looking at our stuff right now and figuring out how much artist time it will take to pull it all together.  Then I will have a $$$ to go to my boss with and to Focus with that will cover all the costs including set up and shipping, etc...   Soo...I hope to hear something back from them soon.

(DAN...if you can post a pic of our last Illustrator reiteration of the logo, that would be great!)

Hey...I work in printing (digital prepress, 20+ years). I can do the production art for nothing. Do it all the time.

DUDE!!!!  NOW you tell me!! Hahaha!

Well, since I already sent off the email, let's see what they say and go from there. We get 1 hr of Art work time for free with the order.  Do you by chance have a graphic designer on staff??

Well, I don't "design" per sae. But I do all manners of production art. That is, I can create or re-create artwork useable in print media, screen print included. I'm pretty darn good with Industry standard software like Adobe's Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, Indesign), etc. I feed four commercial offset presses, 2 shifts by myself. All the color seps, stripping, retouching, color correction. Whatever it takes. I know many artists if you need concept work. A few even owe me favors. Fill me in on Thursday and I'll be able to give you a better idea of what I could provide.

Sweet! Not only is he ready with the cold brews, BUT he can provide some hook ups for getting together our tri uniform idea on the cheap!!  Hopefully Pactimo will get back to me before Thursday, and then we will know where we are at.

Whooo! Hoooo! Get on their case, Tanya, and get the Pactimo info. Welcome to the club, Woz. So glad you would be willing to pitch in a bit in our colors process. See you both on Thursday!

SWEET NEWS!!!!  My boss is providing $300 for us to cover artwork and set up fees. Pactimo quoted 3 hrs of artwork set up, so I am going to be working with Woz to see what we can do to bring that down. (Woz: warning....you're about to become my new best friend!) SOoooo... if we can do enough work so that their art guy only needs the 1hr of free art time, then whatever is leftover after set up fees and shipping can go toward some $$ off everyone's order. I love my bosses. They rock!!  I told them in return they would get a certificate thanking them for their sponsorship, and a photo of the team in the uniforms. (I'll take care of that stuff).

OH! And still going to talk to Focus.  Would be good to get a tri-related logo on there! :-)  That would be even more $$ to go twards everyone's order.  It would be great if we could get the cost down enough to where people could get a tri uniform AND a bike jersey or techincal top if they wanted it.  I am still freaked about having to wear a 2 piece and having my fat escape, but I can mange it. Maybe I can safety pin the two together. That would look cool!

Sweet news! Don't worry Tanya. If we have to get extras in order to make an order of one pieces we can just get a few sizes and have em for anyone new who wants one down the road. I'm sure a few of us can pitch together to get some inventory.

So when do we get to see the design. Where's Daniel-san?
