I don't think it would be right (or legal I suspect) to use the Subaru logo as part of the new ScoobyNet logo. But I like the direction you're going in. What do you think to incorporating something that shows its a community, like a speech bubble or similar? Thanks again!
Thanks also to isubaru. Great looking logo, but it would make the wording very small if you wanted to fit it on to a small area of the screen, and the faded, non-solid colour make it more difficult to use for print. It looks seriously cool though!
Keep them coming guys, I feel more confident now that we're doing the right thing!

Not bad. Nice Idea, but I might look a little tacky if it was resized.
I think, what we need to design is a say a 3d logo and a 2d variant of it to make stickers and to print on to clothing etc...

Nice idea, RB should be recognised somewhere on here.

Great works guys! Keep them coming.
Regarding Richard Burns, we will continue to pay tribute to him in many ways like we did with his photos at the top of the site for a while, although, probably not as part of the logo.
The Nasioc logo is very nice, and the use of the stars is subtle, so I see what you mean Darren... fair enough.

Why?
We have a saying in magazine publishing - when the editor wants a new logo, it's time for a new editor.
New logos are very difficult to get right, especially when they are part of a change in direction. They are very often associated with desperation and impending disaster. Hopefully that is not the case here
So I ask again: why?
But it is possible to spruce things up a bit, while keeping the key elements strong and recognisable, eg ScoobyNet IS orange and white. The Coke logo has been tweaked many times over the decades, but still looks familiar and contemporary. Most of the great brand logos are the same.
Just make sure the new logo embraces Christian, Jewish and, above all, Muslim symbols

Where's BlowDog and his Artz?
If I'm allowed to chip in but not design, I think to stay with the name (brand recognition), stay with the colours (ditto) - unless you want to go for blue with gold bits - but dump the eclipse, which is pointless. I like the idea of trying to get the stars in.
Good luck

Do you realise how many Zoints and Google ads we'd have to put up with to match their advertising budget?

Great designs Kev - but how about changing the Black to WR Blue and the Orange and the Stars to Gold - just to see what it looks like - representative of Subaru colours

ok.. we're going well. Nice work guys.
I have to tell you that flat4 is slightly in the lead currently! Very impressed.
Time's running out though.. there must be more of you lot out there with all that artistic flair! Flat4.. keep going, if you can bare to look at orange any longer, I think you could be onto something!
