Here is a crap logo thrown together in a few minutes complete with an inside joke.

@heathenx,

I like the all-red version better than the all-blue one - stands out much more. However, what about trying the blue version but use the red for the right hand side portion. The main part in blue looks good, but the right hand part of the red version really pops! Try combining the two..

And while I'm bossing you around, you can come over and clean up my garage too. :)

@Dann - not sure about the inside jokes, but is the TLLTS made of pieces of poo? :)

Also, I made a quick entry of one that I wasn't intending on posting. But what the heck! I've always wanted to make a graphic using those chrome girls on trucker's mudflaps... apologies if it offends anyone's sensibilities, but I'm male, so shoot me...

@rfquerin

@rfquerin
Regarding the trucker mud flap banner: Sweet! Can you somehow animate her? You know...she's just sitting there...let's make her do stuff. :D

@All,

In case you missed it in Linc's first message of the thread (like I did!) the requested size for the banner is 336x90. So heathenx, you'd better see how that can be reworked for a much tighter width. I'm gonna try something new as well since mine likely won't translate well to that size I think.

First kick at the can with the proper size (336x90). Man, that's not a lot of space to work with. Wanted something lighter this time. Not sure about the colours. Looks a little collegiate, whatever that means..:

Here's another much simpler one. Less info on this one, but cleaner and much more modern:
