Well folks, due to the frankly quite staggering current total in the chipin widget, and to the fact that 58% chose 'Spillharmonic as the name for our record label, it's time for the next step!
Record label logo design!!
We can discuss ideas in the comments, or you can just go and design a few things and mail them to me via the sidebar contact link.
A democratic vote will then be taken to choose between the contenders, if need be.
Or, if you have an ace idea, but don't have the photoshop skills, then post your idea in the comments and I'm sure someone will pick it up and make it.
Let's do it!

A no-brainer, surely?
Whatever Shane puts forward gets my vote.
Donded.
Thronded...
Let's put it this way, if a group of people which included Leonardo da Vinci were discussing plans to give the ceiling a fresh coat of paint ...
.... yes?
Well, obviously, I'd push Leonardo out of the way and shout: "Hoy, tinny - get over here mate, I've got a job for you".
I have double work for one job to do.
Then finishing up the scraps of designs on my the go slow computer..
Then celebrate my birthday - I'm being sent to ukulele school - and finally my Nan will get to rest peacefully.
This has to be done in 2 weeks.. we are then having a holiday.. I'm so looking forward to it.
cheers fellas for the pre-noms.. but the timing of this is pants!!!
I'd get that Lenny da Vinci in, but makes sure he gets the letters the right way round.. he's worse than me, looks like he did his in the mirror some times.
As someone who has absolutely NO time at all to spend on here (or anywhere else) this week, I say we wait until shane has time to play around with this...
Back to my deadline!
Aah! Sorry Shane, didn't mean to pile any pressure on ... I'm sure I speak for us all on that.
It's just - well, if someone uses the words "'Spill" and "visual", an image of you pops into my head.
What else can I say?
Take it easy, mate.
I agree - better to do the job right than to rush it. Lots of other label business we can be working on ... like, oh I don't know, an act?
@ toffee
I don't paint. Period. If there was a burning school bus full of nuns and children and pets and herbs about to fall off a cliff, and someone told me I could make it all stop if I would just paint this wall ... well .... and so it goes
No worries DsD,
this place is my favorite distraction because - mostly- it does stop my head from bursting.
I do think as a collective.. people should shout ideas.. and put up designs as well.
I have to sleep.. night all.
Well I'm delighted that Spillharmonic came through (between that, the UniDond and Japanther giving me the win in the Knob Bar thread I'm getting a bit giddy...) but, sadly, have never ever been able to design things with any competence. I tend to like simple, bold, clear designs, blocks of colour, Peter Saville. The first album by The Music has one of my favourite ever designs, but that's about all I can offer.
The Music album looks like this, by the way:

I think Michelangelo was better at ceilings.
@ tfd - be serious. We can't afford Michelangelo!
(Damn. I chose the wrong name, didn't I?)
How about an apostrophe (or diacritic for Tinpedant) & a musical note or notes for a logo? Symbols are powerful.
@TB: yep
RE: Michelangelo
Lets not assume he is out of our price range. What's he done lately?
Hmm, dead artist, Tincanman, or wait for Shane? Don't think we need a poll for this one.
@ tfd - can we go back to the EOTW quiz question that asked what you would like to do if you could go back in time? I'd like to go back to May 26, 2009 9:21 PM and use the name 'Michelangelo' in my humorous post instead of 'Leonardo da Vinci'...
@ shane
You've slipped into referring to yourself in third person again. You said to warn you 'cause the doctor says that's one of the early signs of .... well, you know, your 'troubles'.
@tin
It did just weird me out slightly.. but you can tell it's an impostor, I never use a capital letter for my name.. (and I would also vote for the dead guy.. but I have just enough ego to vote me in second in front of you.. sorry)
the doctor hasn't read my notes lately, obviously.. but shane's keeping on track.
i'm against capitalism too
although i'm kinda anti-social too
there's not many places i fit in, when it come down to it
That "Shane" post was me. Steve Jobs didn't think Shoey was acceptable & replaced with another word I've used recently. Sorry for weirding you out.
