Hello,

Currently we're working on a backlit sign for a goalie equipment store. The vinyl we are using is transparent vinyl, and will be applied to a substrate used for backlit signs (can't recall the name at the moment). This is a cut-only job; no printing is necessary.

Our customer would like to have various hockey equipment company logos on one portion of the backlit sign. However, we're having trouble finding suitable images on the net, so I figured I would post here to see if anyone has vectorized images of the following hockey/goalie equipment logos:

Bauer
CCM
KOHO
ITECH
Brian's
Vaughn

Is there a better way to find vectorized images such as these rather than Googling for them? Perhaps a website of some kind that specializes in company logos?

So far, all we've been able to find are low-res JPEG's and GIF's. Because of the low resolution of these images, the software we're using, OMEGA Composer 1.56, has a hard time generating shape cuts out of them.

Any input would be glady appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Dylan Cooke

Dylan...at the top right of this page there is a "search" link. Use it and do a search for "corporate Logos". You will find about 5 or 6 sites refered to.

Thanks, Dave! I found the link to Logotype by searching.. it's such a great, helpful site! I normally try searching for stuff, but for some reason I figured I wouldn't find anything on this topic... guess I figured wrong. I noticed how many times you replied to requests like mine, you must be getting tired of it.. my apologies. [Wink]

Logotype has all of the logos I need except these two:

Brian's (http://www.briansmfg.com/)
Vaughn (http://www.vaughnhockey.com/)

If anyone has vectorized versions of these logos, could you please e-mail them to me? It would save me a lot of work. Thanks! [Smile]

Regards,

Dylan Cooke

How about contacting these companies through their website? You can ask for a file of the logo, explaining the intented use. This has worked for me sometimes.

Hey Dylan...

If you contacted the companies yourself, it would all of us a lot work... [Wink]

Hhahahahahahaha!

Have a great one!

I've since contacted Brian's Manufacturing and Vaughn Hockey, and they've both offered to send me vectorized versions of their logos.

Thanks again for the tips! [Smile]
