OK guys, it's been a labour of love so thought I'd put it out there for the vote.

Let me know your thoughts, good and bad +++

That is bad ass!!!...I love it! +++

Looks good.. Have you tried it with the A8 and OC on the same level near the bottom?

Just a thought.. But happy to go with that..

How about this?

I felt that having the 8, o and c on the same line, maybe led to some confusion?

Architex_mA8tey 17th February 2009 08:24 PM

i like your first one better but how about trying the A-8-O-C inside the four Audi rings or perhaps A8-S8-O-C ?

billblank 17th February 2009 08:28 PM

Not criticism just some thoughts
 
Rectangle to be red, black and grey stripe in keeping with Corporate branding?
More defined/stronger image of the front end, enough detail to see the sqiggle of a quattro grille badge?
Font is spot on.

I'd put it as is on my car.

Took me bloody ages to get that font right :eek::tuttut:

Not sure that it would work inside the Audi rings, but will give it a go. Think that trying to get A8, S8 O & C would be too much

Thanks for the comment Bill +++

The rectangle reflects the S-Line branding, and hopefully does that well. Not sure how I could get in the full corporate colours

Yes but well designed cheap rabbit hutches that will only fall apart after your NHBC warrenty has expired, sir :D

So many cynics. I love this forum.........+++

gninnam 17th February 2009 09:24 PM

Like the first - happy to go with it:D+++

PsYcHe 18th February 2009 06:49 AM

Having seen both, you're right, the first option makes it a bit more obvious... Let's go with that.. OR maybe pushing the A8 more into the red bit and having the OC next to it.. you see more of the car.

Ah.. Design by commitee :)

Conan_the_Librarian 18th February 2009 02:37 PM

Having looked at it many times now, just a thought, but drop the 'A', put the 8 there instead and just have a longer 'OC' after it?

Sorry! I'll shut up +++

Red square is good, car in back ground is good and font looks ace +++

A8oc though is an odd 'word', looks like ABOC or something, even to other VAG owners perhaps.... Maybe more space between 'a8' and 'oc' or perhaps replace oc with the words 'owners', 'club', one on top of the other in half the font size you currenty have.... ?

That would makes the 'A8' brand stand out, but lets other people know what its about too?

Dont worry too much about A8/S8 - weve had this issue since day 1, and as there are infinitely more A8's than S8's, appeal to the masses and the S8 owners will get over it +++

Just my two penneth, I'm not pretending for one minute i'm any good with grafix :D

Cheers fella. I actually think that you've improved it (swine) as it makes the A8 & OC more distinct +++

Font and colour is ace.
Thought about linking them - Audi Badge styly - so it screams Audi before you even try and work out the meaning / letters? cross the O and C over a bit.. ?

Whatever comes out of this am happy with as the general look and feel are great.. think you'll just need to go with something otherwise you will be tweaking for the rest of your life :-)

Small children!! Feel like cr@p now though :sleeping:

mlillywh 19th February 2009 09:11 PM

I like the latest version with the A8 and OC distinct - the font is spot on and the Red rectangle looks right - adds colour to the logo

Nice work

cheers

would be good if you could get some enterprising fellow to make them so we could stick them on our boot lids

A8_Tony 4th March 2009 08:15 PM

All in hand fella, all in hand +++

Welcome to A8Parts by the way :D You going to come to the meet? +++
