    Yup thats right! Free silver. The soul is willing to negotiate, from my meager 2 oz stack! ;) The rights to use a new company logo designed by anyone of you SS members......

    If you have the finesse of da Vinci or practice Mr Squiggle drawings in the closet your welcome to put your ideas forward......"The free silver could be yours" :cool:

    Of course you will need the company name to start your adventure. It is:



    Also to get those design juices flowing a small description of what the company does: Primarily is an Australian Standards hydrostatic test station. We test scuba tanks, LPG gas tanks, & Auto gas tanks.

    The company also services scuba regulators & other multiple forms of novice diver equipment for our own walk in customers. We engage our technical equipment expertise to the commercial industries too, these include, Fisheries, DEC,Water Police, Pearling, multiple shallow water mooring/salvage companies, & many dive operators to tour operations.

    So there you go a quick overview to get that momentum going.

    Show us what your made of......Members are most welcome to vote for any logo put to the board......Best of luck

    I'm picturing a scuba tank with a stethoscope motif, or combined with the hippocratic symbol.

    Nah - thinking replace the Caduceus with a tank, leaving serpents wrapped around it and Mercury's wings on top.

    I like the 2nd one from the bottom, looks like something appropriate for a round. (can't draw so taking the vote option :p )

    How about some tank exploding & SCA carrying a band aid?

    Oz, your talent with artwork is 100% awesome.

    he has done a reasonable job....

    However, if you don't like any of his designs, a couple years ago I needed a new logo for my company.

    I used www.designcontest.com.au

    The owner of the site has now changed (sold out to an international mob I believe), but it's a great service...

    Cost me approx $150 and for that I had 45 awesome logo's produced from graphic designers all over the world.

    Thoroughly recommend.

    Does the logo need to be able to go from letterhead on A4 to car / shop signage ?

    I did say there is talent available for an almost embarrassing five bucks ... and that's a good example of it for sure :)

    Hey any chance of modifying this one?

    [​IMG]

    Are you able to put a cylinder with 485 like this one on the divers back? "On all our hydro tested tanks we have to stamp this on them after their service".
    [​IMG]

    are you able to give the diver more of a black out line so that the head looks more like an o'ring outline like this?
    [​IMG]

    The fin of the diver can you give it more of a open ended spanner look? Above the divers head can you put a large air bubble that sort of takes the shape of Australia with smaller bubbles underneath in the shape of the southern cross?

    Is the Caduceus trade marked? If it is, rule it out, or there maybe legal complications.

    I like this one. However, the font looks inappropriate.

    I like this one, but that's probably because it looks like a silver round.

    What do you think guys? I was going to put a silver bar in the divers hand.........but Nah! bit over the top :p

    The design looks absolutely fabulous on paper.........So if I get better than ten votes "you like" I will flip some very nice silver for the inspired start to the logo. Cheers.

    I understand the desire in having the fins shaped like a spanner but don't think it works nearly as nicely as oz's. I'd also reduce the size of the blank space between the words and the diver.

    just my 2c
