The third logo would look awesome on a black shirt, without the fire thing going on in the background. Also on the back "The UK's online thrash metal community" in the same font with the fire background. And then the same thing but invert the colours and place on a white shirt.
Anything under £10 is awesome! :D

I still demand a UK Thrahs shirt that says Shit Band No Fans on the back. or via Chris' contribution to Bloodbrawl, "Fucking your sister since 2006"

Craig wrote:Right, the idea has been there for some time, but I now have the spare cash to actually get this done. What we're looking for is suggestions for designs/slogans and general opinions on what people want, as well as how much people would be prepared to pay - although we would be limited to having to cover costs at the very least.

Serious suggestions only, any random crap will be deleted.

Edit

As requested, we are also overhauling the site logo/banner:

Old Logo

New Logos

No disrespect amigo - at all

However i think to make the shirt work it could be a better idea to actually design a logo that isnt a font? Any one agree?

That is if you'll have it - obviously not insulting you work here

I just think a definitive logo would be better than anything else

I think we've decided to leave the logo as-is for now - the current one is more a refinement of the older one (the one with white bits on the side).

The whole idea of having a "thrash" logo has been discussed earlier in the thread and it's not really something we're prioritising. The current one does the job - identifies the site and even though it's just two fonts, it's pretty unique.

Not really sure, think we need to get a concrete design sorted first. There seems to be a few ideas floating around and I think Rachel has come up with a pretty amazing design (take a look in her art thread) so we're well on the way :)

I had a random idea yesterday, it's a massive UK on top of the word thrash (they are the same width, hence the massive uk)... It's either made of rocks, one big piece of rock that's been dropped and is smashing on impact forming the workds UK Thrash.. or its made out of gooey/zombie/gore stuff oozey crap... umm i will post up a really shitty sketch picture in a bit when i get round to copying from phone to comp!
