Hahahahahaha Chriss Angel. Sorry had to laugh. Well my artistic abilities only fall into the writing catergory. So as much as I would love to be of help, I can't. I suck at that sort of thing.

I think people relate Jordan to his logo more than anything because the logo represents him, and not just his initials. Maybe if someone could draw up a similar image of gsp's superman punch, or something else that identifies the logo to GSP.

  that's an awesome idea!! You put his high kick like in the gatorade's commercial "bhind the scene" in total black and put a "fleur de lys" in red drapping around the figure. nice nice

  Does all the designing have to be done on computer? or can it be done by hand by airbrush, sketch, marker, pencil... w.e?
Balquis said April 21, 2009

the logo you have now is a classic though!! Dont you think? how come you want to change it? Maybe that could help others come up with something new.. Good Luck!!

PS - i absolutely LOVED watching UFC 97 - when silva and Leites were in the middle of their round and all of a sudden you hear the crowd chanting "GSP!" "GSP!" What a compliment!!!

  I like the original as well, but he did say you can do a variation of it.
  - Isabelle replied April 21, 2009
    
    The Fleur de Lis is just so GSP. Some variation added with his initials/MMA skill would be great but keep the Fleur de Lis its just perfect for him.
    - GSPMgr replied April 21, 2009
      
      Perfectly said - it just needs to be a bit 'cleaner' like the designs you see above. I'm sure we'll see several variations submitted.
    - hockeychick23 replied April 21, 2009

  Now you're thinking...and don't worry about posting this here first. The rules clearly state that it has to be 'original', so if someone else tried to subnit this, you'd have 'beat them to the punch', so to speak. Having said that, I'm sure we'll see many variations on 'GSP', so your call how much you want to share.

  You can sketch/draw it on paper and then have someone scan it into a format that you can submit if you're more comfortable that way - it's the concept that's important, not your skills at graphic software.

Though I don't like the actual logo, I think that " la fleur de lys " should still be part of your new logo. By wearing it, everytime you fight, you're telling everyone that we exist. Not trying to be uber patriotic here, but I think everybody should be proud of who they are.

Read http://www.no-spec.com/ for more info on spec work.
Design contests will only get you amateur "work." GSP is a large name and has large bucks. Pay for a good designer/design team and you'll have something that respects the ins and outs of GSP the brand. Please don't rely on a contest to find something that is the most important aspect for a brand, the logo.

  The Vancouver 2010 Olympic Logo was selected through a design contest. Who says all the submissions will be from amateur work. I think it's awesome that his fans get to participate in creating a new look. It's the concept that they're looking for and I'm sure the winner will definitely represent everything GSP is!
abuabu said April 21, 2009

one last comment, do you think Tiger Woods used an amateur design contest to make this amazing logo? Michael Jordon? No. If you want to be looked at on the same caliber as these amazing athletes (in which GSP is) please don't rely on a design contest! There are MANY great design firms out there that will do GSP justice.

  But those guys don't have the same great fan interactions that GSP has! And a contest is a fun way to get publicity -- I've seen this contest linked up around the internet because people are excited about it. Hope you find a great logo, Georges, I know your fans won't let you down!
- Janet_A replied April 21, 2009
  
  I was about to say the same thing as AlanaG. A major part of Georges' greatness comes from his devotion to his fans. Using an 'amateur' design as opposed to a professional design does not mean that he is on a lower level than these other athletes. If anything, by allowing us to partake in something this big, he will be gaining even more love, respect, and recognition. This puts him on an even higher caliber.
- Moe123 replied April 21, 2009

I think it's a great idea. It engages the fans more than what any other fighter would do. He's allowing us fans to design something that is going to represent him, be displayed at his fights. That's amazing.

Angelina_81 said April 21, 2009

I think it's a great idea to keep on a personal level with his fans. It allows the fans to feel appreciated and valued. I also think that GSP truly loves his fans, and it shows that GSP is not all about the amateur vs. professional crap, a logo is a logo no matter who developed it. I can't wait to see all the great ideas!!

RedwingRobin said April 21, 2009

It is classy that GSP would let his fans help with the logo cause if not for the fans these fighters and all athletes would be nothing. It gives us a chance to connect with Georges. It is too bad I suck at drawing and designing.

  I Like your design, my only complaint is the Fleur gets lost a bit behind the shield emblem. You can't really tel what it is; if you didn't know already.
- grmd61 replied April 21, 2009
  
  Love the concept, but more of the base of the Fleur de lis could be showing. Color would make it jump out--hope the fleur can be blue.
- FaberFan1 replied April 21, 2009
  
  damn man thats pretty good. i would try and either put the canadian flag or the quebec flag colors in there.
  - grmd61 replied April 25, 2009
    
    Like a bar across the bottom of the fleur could be the Quebec flag.

  looks awsome but im not sure if the contest has begun yet. i wana post my other ideas too :P
- BiggStankDogg replied April 21, 2009
  
  Yeah, I was thinking all the colors could be changeable depending on what color trunks he's wearing, etc...
  As far as the fleur being too small, I agree, but I tried making it bigger, and it made the GSP less of the focus. I like to think of this rendition as GSP having the Fleur backing him. An earlier edition had the fluer on one half and the maple leaf on the other, but it just looked muddled. But everything in this can be colored independently, i.e. the fluer, the starburst, the text, the sheild, the outlines, etc. He can have a rainbow if he wants, lol... Thanks for the props...

Hello GSP! Based on the fact that many of your fans probably didn't catch the play on words with your nickname being "Rush," I have created a logo to bring it to the attention of English speaking GSP fans. St. Pierre translates to St. Peter. Georges St. Pierre is the rock of mma while St. Peter remains the rock of the church. Pierre also means stone or rock and can also be 'roche' which is pronounced "Rush!" Great name that perhaps many fans didn't know the layers...they probably just thought you were so fast that you chose the nickname 'Rush.' Anyway, maybe people on your end can improve on my logo. Cheers.

lmgarc said April 22, 2009

I think the Logo has to be something that will look good in color and B/W... remember that some things can't be printed in color. Also, to Abuabu, regarding the amateur work, I think it's OK that he solicits ideas from his fans, even if they are just amateur. First it let's him gain a perspective of what will make his brand more identifiable to his fans, help him know what his fans deem a priority and what he should focus on, it is after all, a brand. He is marketing himself to his audience. And secondly, I am sure he will take the designs he likes and take them to a professional to clean them up and make them look polished like the other logos.
I can tell you, Georges has a great advantage here having such an engaged fanbase. I didn't even know Tiger Woods had a logo, I looked at it and I didn't see Tiger. Here we are being given the opportunity to tell him exactly what we think of him, in a concise graphic.
He's a smart guy!

    I didn't know either. But then again I don't pay much attention to golf or Tiger Woods. When it comes to athletes logo, no logo is more well known or popular than Michael Jordan's.

PrideUFCfan said April 22, 2009

I used powerpoint but mine is just an example of what a professional could use as an example. I have never done graphic design so it was just to show the idea of roche / rush. I could be way off base and that was never a play on words since I do realize that pierre is a stone. Still, St. Peter is the "rock of the church" and I believe Georges St. Pierre is definitely the rock of Montreal in the sport of MMA.

Mononc doesn`t have to worry about me quitting my day job : )

Very nice...the kanji addition may be the unique quality that they were asking for.

Idea since I am not a graphic designer and you are...based on my premise that "Rush" was a play on words, why don't you use the stone look that I used for the octagon and for the upper GSP and make a stone fleur de lis. That might be cool. Anyway, you have talent.

Ok, a true story about the havoc the logo contest is causing in my life. I have confessed to losing my artistic abilities, and this will let you know how far I have fallen. I have two pieces of jewelry which are very distinctive and lovely. I asked my husband to take a crystal encrusted Fleur de Lis belt buckle to Kinko's and have it photographed and blown up so I could use it to incorporate my ideas and try my hand at
usingcalligraphy on the picture with the buckle as a background. The ring is very fancy and has multicolored stones. So I thought I could hand color the crystals on the photo with the new permanent multicolored markers and then, when the colors dried, letter in black ink over them. Well, it did not work out as I had planned! Kinko's doesn't have the proper equipment for the task! Drat! Foiled again; although I am going to put up a picture here of the buckle and maybe someone with more talent than I , can run with the idea and make it work anyway.

I love your design, even better now that I have seen this latest example posted, the colors are my only issue with it and as you say, that could easily be altered. I like red to symbolize both Canada's flag and courage, and blue for Quebec and Georges' beautiful eyes. It is wonderful work.

  Always good to see another vector artist plying their trade. lol... I think alot of people are putting too many effects in their designs, at least some of the ones shown. They have to remember that these will be screened on shrots, etc. and will need to be simplified. With vector, you can always add effects later in post-processing, but good clean lines and art are always the most iconic... Good work, btw!

    Oh, the logo itself is my "mayhem" version... or "rockin'" version... I also submitted a very clean simpler one (see below)... so "mayhem" was just to differenciate from the two. Had nothing to do with his nickname.

The dragon is a symbol of all the qualities that were required as part of the logo design contest (Fearless, etc.), it also represents is karate base and background (it is a japanese style dragon). The fleur de lys doesn't have to be explained. The colors red, white and blue represent is french heritage. The rest is pretty self explanatory. Dammit! I wanted to be at UFC 100!

Wow, I'm really not impressed with the "top ten". They're not great. It seems like they were just looking for a variation of the fleur de lis logo they already had. I was thinking more along the lines of Michael Jordan's "dunk man". Someting more athletic looking, something more dynamic, something a fighter would wear.
Here's my idea...

Horrible top 10 picks Georges. I'm voting for the old logo just because the top 10 suck ass. Mine and others posted on here blow them away. I say EVERYONE vote for the old logo so maybe GSP will rethink his top 10 and maybe try it again with a better looking 10. Sorry, I'm pissed. Thats seriously bullcrap picks.

Hey there Pamala, could you tell me that you think that those were the 10 best logos you've seen out of all the logos that have been posted on here at YardBarker? I realise it's their choice but there's people around here that put a lot more thought and work in their logos than for instance #9. Look at it! It looks like it's been drawn in thirty seconds on a piece of napkin! The person didn't even bother writing Georges St-Pierre 'leveled'. And look at that scribble under 'rush'. I don't think it's fair for all the great logos I've seen floating around that that has been chosen.

If you read what I wrote I said.... I saw alot of them I thought were better.. but I thought they were better.... And remember what it said in the fine print it can be about just the concept and it can be changed It says to picture it in differnt colors so they just like those designs the best. There are two out of the ten I liked the first one and the one that is grey and white and very simple. There were many I loved that didn't make it. I did mine with colored pens on a sheet of paper dosen't mean I didn't try my hardest or my best. I had an idea and didn't know how to do it on a computer so it sucked for me too. But A really nice guy ask me if I wanted him to do it for me and he did my idea and I loved it . I didn't make the dealine but his logo is in the top ten so I voted for his logo I really like it and can see it on a banner at a fight.. this is my idea that he made for me on the computer! I would of never been able to see my design if it wasn't for him!!!

  No there are two I think are fine the way they are and I can see them on banners and on shorts etc.. but I guess if you take the time to look at them with a open mind and can imagine what a professional is going to do with them they might look amazing thats all I am trying to say. Some of them might look cool once the real designers get there hands on them.

Add this to the words they ask us to base our logo, like excellence, athletic, discipline... sorry i dont see those words in the top ten. As an experience graphic designer, i would say VERY bad pic for the top ten. A logo should be VERY simple with a nice concept, once again, i dont see that in the top ten. Very disapointed for you GSP, because u worht more then that.
