Well , I really like the Ram logo (eram.gif) , but there are just a couple
of tiny things that I think should be changed .
First , the Ram's nose.......the way it turns down in the front , it almost
looks like a beak with the way it's pointed . The snout needs to be more
blunt . And maybe the Ram having an evil grin showing some teeth (maybe
this would be too much detail , I dunno) . I kinda see it like the bird
that Thrush uses for it's logo .
Now for the URL tie-in: How about having the lettering on the sidewall of
the Ram's tire ? You could put "DML around the top of the tire , and
"www.Dakota-Truck.net" around the bottom , just like a Raised white letter
? This would simply be a contrasting color for whichever color scheme
anyone had .
With this type of logo , we would have something that i struly unique , and
sport the DML name , as well as our web address .
I don't wanna sound like I want it my way , but I just want to offer my
input before we settle on anything .
Whatever we do , I'll be happy . I just want everyone to know the kind of
people I associate with and relate to .
PEACE
