Just my opinion, I like the guage more in this version and the carbon outline on the F, but I kinda like the "Fest" style more on your prior version. Any thoughts? Are you feeling this one more?
I dig like the sticker concept but wouldn't the primary logo be suitable for print? I mean screenprinters have very detailed pics on their apparel these days. It makes sense for hats stickers though.
Also, I dig the concept of incorporating things "colorado" but I think the red black and white combo looks fierce

so maybe for flyers and such, Kinkos (or another printing place) would be a good sponsor; even if say, they do the printing/copies at cost, instead of marked up

I was thinking about doing mountains in the background, and was playing around with it last night. I just couldn't come up with anything I was happy with. I will mess with that a lil more. It does needs to rep Colorado a lil better.
Scott, what about the old Fest do you like? Is it the "est" part or "F" itself or something else? I was liking the newer Fest a bit better, but I am not completely sold on it yet.
As for the different logo variations. I was thinking the Main logo can be used anywhere you want it to be: T-Shirts, Web-Site, Apparel, etc. The Print logo (like Matt said) would be used for anything we needed to be just in black and white to save $$$$. And the sticker application is obvious.

I use this place to print of t-shirts and other stuff every now and then. It can get to be pretty expensive on there, and we can probably get a better price (especially if you know someone local). But figured I would throw it out there. They don't charge extra for full color graphics.

I like the mountains idea, not for the logo so much, too busy, but for the flyer I think it can look good. Here is what the flyer now looks like. I would do a comparasion with Digi's other logo but I don't have it yet.
The blank areas will feature a site map and vendor logos.
Thoughts?
Chris as for the logo I like the "est" best on this one simply because it think it flows better. Both F's are great but I also think this one flows a better too, but would like to see the CF around it. Not 100% on either and still open to suggestions so any other options are welcome as well.
This flyer will be the one I present at my meeting on Tuesday to secure the site so any last minute tweeks will have to occur before tomorrow night.

i was thinking also with it possibly being too "busy" also in the background, as said previously there is a fine line between enough info, and having it too crowded
also scott, i know a couple of people who more then likely would be willing to had out fliers at their jobs (maybe free admission for them or something; or a couple of free raffle tickets if one is done; or something along those lines) to prospective attendees
also scott have you ever eaten at the http://www.thelube.com/main.html?utm...ign=SplashPage
(hint: look at their locations, let alone them being an automotive related place to eat)

i think it adds too much black at the right side 
, but as said before i am no graphic artist 
(btw i think you change the skyline to Denver, which if so i like)
also i think that civic type-R needs to go and be replaced with another car, one that we can actually get here
as far as the wing place; they are actually pretty decent wings too, wife normally hates most wings out here in Colorado (being from buffalo), but actually likes them there
whatever i like the hostesses or some of the bartender's; O... the cars/motorcycles i like too 
also don't forget to order yourself a Lube Tube when you go there for yourself

Scott, I think the flyer looks great. But maybe lighten up the background image. Make the opacity of it more like 60-50%. I think it distracts from the text a little bit. Also, the small text that is in black is a little hard to read. Maybe try taking off the outline?
Lemme know if you need anything else changed on the logo.

So Chris, myself and another non-Azine member are the 3 core individuals putting this project together BUT for the rest of you whom have been participating on this thread:
Hockeyman,
Souljah,
gfrg88,
timberland,
Friesm,
tc5280,
Scottayhifive.
I have appreciated your input, feedback and continued help, wheather very small or large.
For your continued support in promoting this event I will:
1. Waive your registration fees for the judging group;
2. Give you each two raffle tickets; and
3. Give one 5280fest shirt or hat to you.
This offer is only for those listed here and because it is going to cost a lot of money to put this event together and I can't afford to extend "freebies" to others.
I will most likely still give some type of AcuraZine discount or something similar for the other mile high region members.
