In comparison to the others, this would be very easy to put over any base colour without clashing colours or missing details. I wanted to stick with the theme of blue but not overly blue, so the black acts as an appropriate contrast. The ascending cut-off text effect is pleasing to the eye as it&#8217;s simple yet effective at displaying the name in full. If you glance at the logo without intending to read it in full, it&#8217;s likely that you&#8217;ll understand what it says regardless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other band members suggested very different ideas, both are shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"866\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10674658\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/534\/2022\/10\/image-7-1024x866.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-561 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10674658\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/534\/2022\/10\/image-7-1024x866.png 1024w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10674658\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/534\/2022\/10\/image-7-300x254.png 300w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10674658\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/534\/2022\/10\/image-7-768x650.png 768w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10674658\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/534\/2022\/10\/image-7-1536x1299.png 1536w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10674658\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/534\/2022\/10\/image-7-2048x1733.png 2048w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10674658\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/534\/2022\/10\/image-7-1200x1015.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>I think this one would be hard to put on a base colour without it looking lost and it doesn&#8217;t feel like it shows much of our interests or type of music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"772\" height=\"776\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10674658\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/534\/2022\/10\/image-8.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-562 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10674658\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/534\/2022\/10\/image-8.png 772w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10674658\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/534\/2022\/10\/image-8-298x300.png 298w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10674658\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/534\/2022\/10\/image-8-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10674658\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/534\/2022\/10\/image-8-768x772.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 772px) 100vw, 772px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>This one is very metal themed, of which we didn&#8217;t have in our set.
