Official YotaTech Logo Submissions

The Staff is ready to get a logo figured out so we can start developing a YotaTech Store for you all to order some YT goods.

We are now taking submissions from the members.


I ask that you don't just post up ideas without an example as we have no easy way of getting them drawn up.

If you have Photoshop and want to come up with some new designs we'd love to see what you can do.

Just be sure that no image you post is already copyrighted or trademarked as you are liable for the images you post, YotaTech assumes no responsibility.

I already have an idea for what I want for our logo.
ErikJeanna came up with a skull design with two shocks making a crossbones design - I want something very simple and effective.
The lettering he had below the skull itself is awesome and looks very rugged.

Here it is cropped:



We look forward to your submissions!

You're right but we're wanting to get ideas for an actual logo...not just cool decals for our rigs.

Logo for hats, hoodies, t-shirts, mugs, license plates, mouse pads, etc...

Maybe "YotatTech Lightly"?

It may get a little tricky using their logo in ours...we are partners now but I'm not sure how that would work.

That's a good idea though.

I don't see a problem with that at all, that's what we're going for.

If you search for store in the Announcement or Off Topic section, there is a thread by me on this vendor.
http://www.olympicembroidery.com/

They carry a huge variety of coats, shirts, you name it.
We get a logo, then can put it on.

We are looking mainly for one logo to use on all the clothing.

Oh, and i can also tweak it to other colors if you guys like it but not the colors I chose. I am saving all the elements to make it, separate so that I can tweak them to different colors! Hope you guys like! Or if you guys can find other shocks or different skull I can try to change them... I think it looks kinda cool now but you guys can criticize me good or bad.

That's a cool design but I'm really thinking the simpler the better.
The skulls look cool but are a little bulky and look a little cliche to me.

What does everyone else think?

I don't have any means of making a logo on this computer, but I can offer an idea, or two.

Maybe have the front of an older FJ(or possibly 4Runner) with Yotatech on the grille.

Or tread marks with Yotatech somewhere in them.

Or you could even do something like a 4x4 crossing a big mountain with YT on the side of it.

I can imagine them, but you guys can't see what I'm thinking. And for once, that's a bad thing.

Yotatech

off road

You can turn the wording half circle on top and bottom to make a circle and stick a 1st gen truck in the middle were the is as a tip of the hat to the begging of Toyota's mini truck/suv revolution/beginnings and a nod to the roots of Yotatech

One thing, no Toyota T or the name itself can be on the logo.
Toyota owns both and that could get us into hot water.

You can see our old logo here from our Cafeshops store.

Yes, we do have a store, but the pickings from it are very limited.
