Documents went out last night so I'm just freewheeling today

If it were pared back to line drawings/posterised that'd kinda work.

Honestly though, just a reasonable font, flipped, would work just as well and require a lot less fiddling on behalf of whomever does it.

Is peggers going to knock up some stickers ?

"My other forum is OV9"

Sorry but that’s terrible. A logo needs to be clean, you can have one of the characters substituted for a very simplified engine/component but there’s no way we can take over the world with that.

I'm still working on it. Nearly finished with v1.1

I particularly like the jpeg compression artefacts. Leave those in.

That was what I meant, but I had some fucking decorum about it.

That is the worst thing I've ever seen.

You can have the O be a tyre laying down a skid and the V9 sitting above the skid. Coz we all love skidz.
I have the artistic ability of a potato so won’t even attempt to put my idea into a picture!

Must be difficult shaving without a mirror...

Nice idea but needs to be more stylised. I like the idea above of a tyre, or how about a brake disk for an O? TBH I don’t even know what that O is! (Wankel engine?)

Maybe we ditch the O and 9 for normal text and just have a vee engine in the middle?

OK, don't judge as you are a hard crowd & this only took a few moments. I can clean it up, change the font etc if it's a go-er, but it's based on the image Tim put up on facebook.

first glance I hated it, then I straight away loved it! Good work Peg!

OK, I don't know how to take that Rich!

positive. I guess it’s so far removed from what I imagined we could use!

Yes, now we only need to be worried about being sued by Steve McQueen's estate and Martini

I suppose my only real criticisms would be that the image really needs to be landscape to work at the top of the forum and I suppose it does look a bit like Steve M's hand and the number 09 unless you know what you're looking for.
