Hi everyone,

 

I am in the process of setting up a new website, dedicated to seafishing.
The logo of this site will be a fish ( to be more specific a cod ). This cod has a eyepatch, since the name of the website also has to do with pirates, it is a play on words really.

 

The design of this site is done using two basic colors, blue and orange. Same colors as used in the firefox logo's.
I will be using crystal icons throughout the site, and because of this I was wondering if anyone felt like making me a crystal like logo of the cod, better then the one I included here.
Of course I will list your name in the about section of the site as the creator of the logo, along with a link to whatever site you prefer!

 

I have a few requirements for the logo though..  :whistle:
1) It needs to be a fish one can recognize as a cod, this means that it needs to have the little beard like, piked thing sticking out from under its chin.
2) it needs to be recognisable as a  fish skeleton, because of the pirate-link, and because of this the eye patch would also be cool to have.
3) it would be really cool if the logo could also be scaled down to icon size!

 

I have included two files, the first one is the orange fish that I was thinking of using and the second one is a picture of a cod, just for reference.

 

I am very curious to see what you amazing guys can come up with.
Many thanks in advance for your time and thoughts !

 

Cheers and regards,

 

Jax

Maybye You Should ask for A Logo...And An icon...Cause a logo that is possible to scale to icon will be like ugly no ?

Dunno, you may have a point there. :-)

 

I was thinking that I maybe posted this in the wrong forum too. Maybe it should have gone in the mascotte request forum..

No, this forum is fine for it and sooner or later some should accept this request.  It not too bad to do.

I used Photoshop for this. :smile: It's not hard at all, if you'd ever be online on MSN I could teach you how to do it. :wink: And keep an eye out for my upcoming tutorial.

That is really nice, tnx!  

 

However, it is a little too abstract I think. It is hard to recognise the pirate/cod combination in it...
Maybe more along the lines of this ?

 

Thanx for your time and effort though !  Much appreciated !
