Garfield Scheurich 29.05.2012 | People on these boards are so rude! You don't have to be a pro DJ to have your own logo. |

Celestine Porebski 30.05.2012 | Well, I fail to see how pointing out that a logo and/or web-presence (not only talking about this thread here, more of a general statement) might not really be the most important thing to worry about at this point is as negative as some people here make it out to be. Be honest, how many people do you know that got gigs (especially the first ones) based on their web-page? Or why do people want a logo so badly? (Actually, when believeing about it I can't come up with any DJ, which I'm interested in, that has a logo) Don't get me wrong, it might be different somewhere else, but all I can observe is that word of mouth and (even more importantly) knowing people is the way to get gigs, not having a super duper webpage. Sure, having some representation on the internet certainly does not hurt, but a normal facebook account will do for that (maybe at a later stage a fanpage). And to be honest, I'd get a bit suspicious if somebody had a fancy webpage without having played a fair number of gigs - in the end a webpage without content is not worth a penny (and what should you fill a DJ page with if not references to your former and forthcoming gigs - and maybe a mix here and there). |
Yong Aptekar 29.05.2012 | This community has always been about helping. Yes there are sometimes 30+ threads about the same thing, just offer help or don't answer. There's been a lot of this "holier than thou" attitude here lately, and to be honest, that's not DJTT. Let's be the supportive community we are all here for, and not another uppity community
. OP: look at logos online, lots, and foreverything from toasters to airplanes. It will give you some ideas of what looks good, and what doesn't. Don't clutter it with too much, the simpler the better. Keep it to only a couple colors, but make sure it catches the readers eye. Also, it doesn't have to be your name, or letters, look at the Etnies logo for example. It is a very abstract E, but when I see it in a skate shop I instantly know its Etnies. And keep up the enthusiasm, no difference between a logo and a DJ name when it comes to how long you have been playing this game. |

It might be a good place for inspiration or for making connections to an artist that might be able to draw something up for you." I understand that this is the internet and that some people are more "social" savvy than some, however, these community s are around to help people. If you honestly believe you are above someone, you should not even bother and just let others like myself, help out people like Kyle in a way that might be more constructive. |
Ethel Feigum 28.05.2012 | Here's a kinda cool place to get some ideas. http://www.logofaves.com/ If you google 'free logo creator' you'll get lots of links to software downloads and online logo building sites. Try a few out! Another good place to look is www.dafont.com . They have lots of free downloadable fonts that could be used for logos. Let's play nice, kids! |

Noriko Lebowitz 28.05.2012 | okay? I asked you what it was...It looks like a bunch of art to me. Would it have that hard to explain it to me? I never said i couldn't find it... |
Georgina Schatzman 28.05.2012 | A simple Google search pulls this up as the first hit. http://www.deviantart.com/ |
Noriko Lebowitz 28.05.2012 | true....whats Deviantart? |

As for the comments about "being good" before getting a logo made, thats just nice way of putting someone down. There are loads of products, DJs, and companies that are terrible, but a lot of them have a logo anyway. A logo should represent someone or something regardless of quality. The logo will be his calling card so to speak. If I saw someone who had only a few weeks under his or her belt with a logo and card, I would be quite impressed that they took the time to represent themselves properly. Keep doing what youre doing Kyle, and check out Deviantart. They have some cool stuff there. You might even been able to get someone to make one for you. Im currently looking for one as well, ill PM you if I find something. |
Noriko Lebowitz 28.05.2012 | Because now that i am starting to get gigs, i would like to make buisness cards and put a nice logo on them. |
Georgina Schatzman 28.05.2012 | Ok, why the need for a DJ logo? |
Noriko Lebowitz 28.05.2012 | about a year and a half now... |
