Which logo should be used as the 6MT Club signature?

[lucid]

It is now time to determine the Official logo of the Official 6MT Club. As the Honorary President of the club, and under the enlightening guidance of the two honorable founding members, S & E, I took upon myself to initiate this survey as the first project of my administration in leading the club to a prosperous future (mission statement tbd).

Only members of the Official 6MT Club should respond to this survey. Club membership is now officially defined as:

"A forum member, who owns, or has placed an order for, an E9X M3 with 6MT, and has made a post on the Official 6MT thread stating he/she would like to be a member of the club and has adopted the Official club logo as his/her signature."

The official 6MT Club thread is at:

Obviously, there is no logo yet to be adopted, but once this survey ends, that should be settled.

There are 7 choices that have been generated by current club members through a collaborative process. You are being asked to vote for one of them. If you are not a current club member, your vote will be discarded (this is a public poll). The poll will end Tuesday 3/11 17:21 EST. Although the design of the selected logo will not be changed, it may need to be resized so don't too much attention to sizes of the images.


Logo 1:



Logo 2:



Logo 3:



Logo 4:



Logo 5:



Logo 6:



Logo 7:

I think logo 2 makes the best signature, but I like the clarity more in logo 3.
Perhaps a combination...? Make the shifter the same size as in logo 2 but with the more clearly defined lettering, etc. Keep the long rectangle view. A large square for a signature isn't as smooth. Also, keep the regular "M" in 6MT in logo 2.
Just some thoughts.

I feel the people who put the logos together shouldn't vote as we will be bias. I do agree that the rectangle suits best and on a personal note I prefer the daylight look but where I differ from Enigma is that I think the M in the 6MT looks best matching the BMW M logo, it's looks the part.

Anyway happy voting all.

[southlight]

+1 on the voting part! Happy voting everyone.


Best regards, south

oops. too late. i voted for what i thought was nice. i dont think my work was nice to be honest. didnt have time to fix it.
if anything i'd use the avi i have right now with rch3p, but that aint an option

I think it is okay as long as you vote for someone else's proposal, which is what I did. I like South's more than mine anyway.

I added this thread to my sig to spread the word...We might all want to do the same until the poll ends.

I really wanted to like #3...

Can we clean up the edges of the lettering of #3, because I like the thinner font vs. 1 & 2 I just couldn't vote for it as is. I went with #2.

I thought I tried out a version a bit ago that had the thinner font, just cleaner.

^^ i wonder if it's too late for that. those designs have been discussed and changes have been made on the other thread

But is it too late for a change, like a few here I think the inclusion of the pedals from South's design is the way forward but personally I feel my lettering on the gear knob works better. If enough people felt that a combination of both would work best then surely neither South, Lucid or myself would be put out by taking the best from each of the design to make the best possible logo.

haha 0 votes on my 3 designs PWNED

[E90SLAM]

I like Logo 1...

[E90330iS]

#1 or #2, I vote two because you did a nice job with the orange shading of the shiftknob light.

footie:

I liked your thinner font idea on the logo. What do you think about utilizing this font below, only illuminated as yours was?



I realize this all may be moot as the poll is underway.

[OzStriker]

Nice design OC, but I think we should just stick to the current pole and make a decision from that, at least get a standardised logo...In future we can always have a re-vote.

Then, we would need to process the responses since as the OP indicates, only club member votes count.

A club is a club.
