Hi you guys..

I'm working on creating a logo for Engineering.

Any idea that will create a logo for engineering? I think I can't use the wheel(engine) because it's already taken..

Thank you for your help..

What discipline of engineering are you talking about?

compass, ruler...

shapes in rhythms...like...

||||||||||||||||||
| | | | | |

no swooshes...yick...

nice fonts...probably not serif...i'm enjoying Myriad again myself...and i always love Trade Gothic but that's a pretty dry font...I used News Gothic for an engineer not too long ago...

create dynamic movement with simple elements...like...

|||^^!

but obviously more play...

it's easier to show than tell...so show us and then we'll have more to say...

i'm just making this all up you know...v

ps: wow, i've never thought about designing a logo by simply typing in fast ideas in a text editor...an idea i should try some time soon...

Set square and dividers.

No, wait - that's the Freemasons.

no curves, gears, lines, and the name in big block, stone-like letters.

Okay, a little bit harsh....but it works....

Hmmm.... interesting use of XML. Can I see the DTD please...

Elizabeth

Aww, c'mon Vietboy - the aforementioned site was awesome for allowing you to think outside the typical engineering box, was it not? Surely it gave you some ideas into the mind of the engineer, the sick twisted, mind of the engineer....

Ok, maybe not... but work with me, will ya? 😃

Just for the record I find Elizabeth to be neither sick nro twisted. I must go now we're only allowed an hour a day on the computer in the home for the criminally insane.

I'm no XML expert...I don't know how to write DTDs 🙁

But tsk, tsk Elizabeth! 😃 There are no spaces in the names of a tag! (That much I know) 😃

The new engineering logo: :rolleyes:

I disagree. Surely it should be: 😕

Merve

No, this is definitely the new logo.
