: Help design the 2010 10R rally logo and t-shirts!
abusfullofnuns 09-29-2009, 04:19 PM This thread will serve as the t-shirt and logo thread for the 2010 ZX-10R Rally at the Dragon.
We need to come up with a logo, as well as the wording for t-shirts. we could probably incorporate the design into a sticker too. Hopefully we have someone good with illustrator, or what ever you need for this.
Joker 008 will be in charge of getting the quotes for t-shirts and handling all of the design requirements.
Do you guys want a cool shirt with a design that you actually like?
This is your chance to have a say in the final outcome, so speak up!
We need to decide:
Shirt color
Logo Design and related wording
other stuff that i am forgetting
Be a part of the community and help design!
edouble 09-29-2009, 06:27 PM Shirt color: Kawi Green!
The Joker 008 09-30-2009, 12:46 AM Ok, shirt color will be Kawi green or black. I will have the quotes tomorrow.
1NiceZX10R 10-01-2009, 10:17 PM i think black would look better. as for the cost, im game with whatever......cant wait till meet everyone.
YSR50 10-02-2009, 10:15 AM cheap iron-on cafepress.com style or screen printed?
1 color or multi color?
abusfullofnuns 10-02-2009, 11:13 AM cheap iron-on cafepress.com style or screen printed?
1 color or multi color?
I am hoping that we will do a nice weight shirt, with a screen printed design. I was planning for multi color, but I guess that depends on what designs are submitted.
The Joker 008 10-05-2009, 08:25 PM The tshirts will be silk-screen printed and have a (at most) 4 color design. The guy making the shirt stated it will cost between 7 to 9 dollars per shirt. This is cost price, I am not looking to make any money off this. At the rally I will even bring the invoice to verify for others to see.
edouble 10-06-2009, 03:47 AM sounds great
LouisZX10R 10-06-2009, 04:51 PM On the back of the shirt should be a Dragon....
over the top I would put:
1st Annual Dragon Rally
then a picture or outline of a dragon, some samples here...
and underneath the picture the date
:occasion1:occasion1

:iamwithst.... 1NiceZX10R nice bike u have there in your avitar.. post some up so we can get a better look :thumbsup:!!!!
cbolton69 10-27-2009, 02:40 PM i happened to see this while browsing the web... the design is sweet.... too bad it has already been used...

That is pretty unique. Hopefully we have a graphic artist that will help us with the design. My wife is an art professor at the local university, but I am not sure that she has time to help us out.

sounds like it would make a great class assignment... give the students the basics and let them go...... :mrgreen:
LouisZX10R 10-28-2009, 01:24 PM Don't over complicate it, keep it simple for a T-Shirt, looks much better that way and is easier to recognize later :thumbsup:
I'm still looking for more ideas...:occasion1
cbolton69 10-28-2009, 11:32 PM think if they were designed in time and pre-ordered how about adding you screen name on your personal shirt?? maybe across the top back like a jersey... just a thought

i don't know if that is possible for a screen printed shirt. there would need to be a screen created for each screen name. at least that is what i would think after watching my friend print shirts.
LouisZX10R 11-02-2009, 03:53 PM Well I have put some ideas up... who else has some and then have someone put the best 3 up for a vote and set a deadline for all that or it's not going to happen, I know that by experience:thumbsup:

i argee..... if it sits too long it may not get done
boneszx9r 11-08-2009, 01:16 AM Why not use the Kawasaki Dragon Emblem. It is widely used in Europe and on some of the Superbike teams. Usually on the front fender. I've even Seen on some of the bikes on the site.

I agree, I like that design.
We need someone with adobe illustrator or whatever program and the skills to start throwing some ideas together.
Things to include:
1st annual ZX-10R Rally
The dates
The area
Graphics
Maybe we could give a free registration to the author of the design chosen.
cbolton69 11-30-2009, 04:08 PM might want to ask mr_honez if he mined drawing up a few ideas... he is very good with art work.....
LouisZX10R 12-01-2009, 07:04 AM yep that's a nice one
:+1:
edouble 12-05-2009, 08:10 AM We definitely have to have ZX10R.net somewhere on the logo
mr_honez 12-05-2009, 10:19 AM Here's a few quickies based on the one pic liked by most. A full redraw would be required to get rid of the jagged edges. They are done both on in 3D and flat.
cbolton69 12-05-2009, 10:47 AM wow... thanks!!!!! anyone of them will look great im sure... thanks for your help!!!!!
nice work mr honez , i like the green one:thumbsup:, is there any story behind the kawi dragon?BIG zx10r.net on the back:mrgreen:, this would go good on black or white T ,not a big fan of the pocket Ts.size large please.sure hope a kawasaki green ink is used not some off green color.loyal to the green.
jimbob 12-09-2009, 07:54 PM black may be a lil hot for the summer months
abusfullofnuns 12-09-2009, 08:00 PM black may be a lil hot for the summer months
it also raises the fixed costs of the shirts.
Let's keep thinking of designs and try to have a few finalist by Feb. 1st.
We will have a poll and decide by March 1st.
jimbob 12-09-2009, 08:15 PM i just text a friend of mine who designs t-shirts for his co. called team world i sent him a couple of pics of what we are looking to make he loves doing tribal stuff like the blue-green dragon pic so give me a couple of days to see what he can do
cbolton69 12-14-2009, 10:20 PM any shirt updates????????

LouisZX10R 12-17-2009, 07:13 PM Nice design :thumbsup: just a bit too much red for my taste, green would be much better :thumbsup:
jimbob 12-17-2009, 08:26 PM ok i know there is an R missing on the front of the shirt in ZX-10R.NET and on the back it will say 2010 10R RALLY somewhere sorry it took so long
jimbob 12-17-2009, 08:28 PM the pics r kinda blurry but on the back you can kinda see the map on the dragons tail
abusfullofnuns 12-17-2009, 08:40 PM the pics r kinda blurry but on the back you can kinda see the map on the dragons tail
yeah, i can just make out part of the road. i am liking both of the recent ideas, and we are definitely on the right track.
wuzupez 12-20-2009, 11:04 PM the pics r kinda blurry but on the back you can kinda see the map on the dragons tail
Maybe i'll run down there thurs on my day off & play around with a few different ideas! Unless he has them done by then. This time of year they are extremely busy though guys so be patient...

These are all really good designs!!!! Keep them coming. ..the more ideas the better...
JamieJohns 12-21-2009, 03:14 PM working on several ideas, will pst when done
cbolton69 12-21-2009, 03:35 PM working on several ideas, will pst when done
great design :thumbsup:..... may want to put 1st annual on there somewhere.... hopefully if all goes well, this can carry on.....
abusfullofnuns 12-21-2009, 10:09 PM great design :thumbsup:..... may want to put 1st annual on there somewhere.... hopefully if all goes well, this can carry on.....
I think that the design is looking great. I also think that 1st annual should be included too. Do we want the shirt to be a front and back, or just front?
Maybe the pocket could have something about 1st annual zx-10r rally or whatever.
Looking good guys.
justins07zx10 12-27-2009, 05:19 PM i say back and put something small on the front pocket side. just my .02. gah, i can't wait for this trip its gunna b a blast
JamieJohns 12-28-2009, 08:33 AM some more rough ideas, we can add whatever verbage we deicide on. 1st annual, zx-10r.net, etc. the small one would be for the front
justins07zx10 12-28-2009, 09:33 PM that dragon is pretty badass wrapped around the zx-10r logo.
edouble 12-29-2009, 03:58 AM some more rough ideas, we can add whatever verbage we deicide on. 1st annual, zx-10r.net, etc. the small one would be for the front

edouble 01-04-2010, 05:54 PM The ZX10R with the dragon is awesome!!! Not a big fan of the 08 10R and dragon since I own a 06

i agree, and not to be a dick, but deal's gap is at the border of north carolina and tennessee. it may be better to leave the state off, or change it to north istead of south.
great job JJ:thumbsup:
JamieJohns 01-05-2010, 09:00 AM The ZX10R with the dragon is awesome!!! Not a big fan of the 08 10R and dragon since I own a 06

With stuff like that you could be. :wink:
Ever thought of freelancing?:thumbsup:
chogue 01-07-2010, 08:12 AM Looks good so far
JamieJohns 01-07-2010, 11:57 AM you guys talking about this one?
chogue 01-08-2010, 08:05 AM thats the one i like. maybe change the ZX-10R to ZX-10R.net on the top. Looks freaking wicked though in my opinion. GOOD JOB!!!!!!!

cool, i will throw the .net in and post.
JamieJohns 01-25-2010, 06:42 AM We could also find out who designed the zx10r.net shirts and see if they could do something

I don't think we are going to bother. Your design is tits, and I have already sent a version for a quote. I need a high res version for some proofs to be made.
Killa Kawi 02-21-2010, 01:04 AM Ill work on something if we still have time.. im a pretty good designer (14+ years with photoshop)
bodymanruss518 04-19-2010, 05:23 AM any word on the shirts??......I gotta def get me one!!.......reserve me one if there are anyleft!!
chogue 04-19-2010, 08:13 AM I havent heard anything more about them. I assume shirts are a no-go, but we all know what happens when you assume

Until this weekend I have only had a few people contact me about wanting shirts. I think there was only about 10 shirts spoken for and no money collected (it wasn't asked for either).
Only printing ten shirts with the three color front and back design was very expensive, if you can even find someone who would do it. There is a separate screen required for color for front and back. Simplifying the design still didn't help much.
Now that we are upon the week of the rally, there has been more interest expressed. I planned on talking to members that made it to rally about going forward with a t-shirt. Most printers that I talked to had a minimum of 20-25 shirts.
What do you guys think? Prices would probably be closer to $20, depending on final number.
chogue 04-19-2010, 01:36 PM Im game for whatever. If we do shirts, count me in for 2, just let me know who or where to send the money to. See you guys this weekend
LouisZX10R 04-19-2010, 03:17 PM I can't make it down, due to time issues, but would also take 2 T-shirts (medium), have my buddy bring 'em back for me or mail it... whatever works, I'll pay with PayPal up front if needed.
