I needed a high res version, so I vectorized the current PP "banner" design.  While doing so, I figured I'd play around with the design a bit, and wanted to get feedback.

New One: (Will be uploading a new version soon):


Old One:



Thoughts?

You need some more names listed, like Lard Mooner, and Butt Monkey (I think that's what I did in Trinity), ya know, all the latest stuff.

The word paddle sports is hard to read in front of the kayaker/wave graphic. Maybe the website URL should be bigger/easier to read.

That text would only go on a poster, not on stickers.  Surprising how many people still don't know what PP is...

I appreciate your efforts for change.  However, I personally like the old one better.  The only thing that you did with the new one that I really like is the PP distressed look.   The darker color of the old one makes it stand out much better.  Maybe try the all the changes except use the darker color and see what that looks like?

Just my 2 cents

The first thing I did was lay out the existing version of illustrator, and traced the "kayaker" so the banner will scale for large-format print outs.  So we have that if we want to stick with it.  I'll make some tweaks to the new one and put it up for a poll.  I thought the distressing looked cool, though...

New poll with revised graphics has gone up.  Go vote for a new design or the original.
