Hey guys! I am needing some creative help. We have started a website and are trying to create a logo but have no means of creating one. Would there be anybody out there that would like to help us out? We are looking for something simple that we could use with our cutter to create decals with it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You're looking for a logo for GermanWagenWorks.com, right?
Have any ideas on a color scheme? Perhaps a particular font you'd like?

Just a black logo, just something simple that does not have sharp edges, due to wanting to make logos. We have been trying to come up with something for a long while now. I finally decided to try here for help. We had been thinking about maybe putting something either in front, middle, or ending of it like an outline of a VW.

Yeah, that is cool. The lines on the cars might have to be a little thicker in order for our cutter to work correctly with it though.

You'll have to be extremely careful about using any kind of VW outline in a logo. A logo I cleaned up for a friend of mine had a very simple line drawing of a new Beetle and a classic Beetle back to back (think Lexus commercial), and he received a cease and desist from VWoA.

Here's a couple quick samples...

I'm really getting sick of hearing about that crap. Mad The threats and letters from VWoA I mean.

Nice design work by the way!
