Before anyone gets angry The only reason I am asking this here is because I know alot of Drag Racers and thier sponsors and companies come in here.

But I recently opened my own shop and was wondering where to go, or who I might talk to, to design a logo for my business?

Is there a nation wide "well known" company that you can submit and idea to an see what they can come up with?

I live in Mobile Alabama, and locally I cannot seem to find anyone who can help me, most of them say "whats a piston" or "whats a crank pulley"

just lookin for some honda-tech help

thanks

 

my wife does graphic design. Among other things. She just got laid off from her teaching job too.

You live in alabama. Have you heard about our legislative session for 3 months and they didnt do squat? Well teh education budget was one of the things they didnt get passed so they layed off non-tenured teachers until the budget gets passed. Many teachers got pink slips so we may get lucky.

 

pm me with some of the details and Im sure I could come up with something

Also, a lot of the car show people use SGXmedia.com out here, they might have some good graphic design going, although I've never used them for graphic design

 

wow nice find

 

Send me an IM with the details, and I could comp some stuff up for you.
(The guy's wife who is out of work should get first dibs though...)
