Im pretty sure this isnt a breach of their copyright as its only using their basic shape, but I require editing of the Starbucks logo to say Bantermarket across it ;)

To elaborate, the text across the logo ("Starbucks" at top,"Coffee" at bottom) should be replaced and "Banter" (at top) and "Market" (At bottom) at bottom added.

I'm no good with Photoshop so I have no idea how, also the inside of the circle where the image of the woman is in the original logo should be replaced with just a complete black fill so that I can decide what to add there later (using flash to give it an image fill).

Here is a (albeit bad) example i tried in flash, the concept is the same except the centre which should be black :puzzle:

Thanks ;)

Thats actually more or less perfect, the only change i would ask if you could is to try make the font a little more like the "Starbucks" font, if you cant do that its cool with me.

^ well, it's not about not being able to do it... it's just that i have no idea what font they used for it... anyways, i'll do some searching... hopefully i'll find something useful...

Ok, well i did some search but couldn't find the name of the font used by starbucks ( maybe they made a custom font for personal use ). I did find something quite similar to it, but it costs like 240 $... http://www.fontshop.com/fonts/downloads/garagefonts/freight_sans/

^^ good luck.

Yeah, I saw that...how can they justify selling a font for that much :o

Anyway, could you use a font that you have which just resembles it closer?

Just any font that in your opinion, would look a little better because thats really my only concern.

The text on it is ill formed, the stars are poorly sized and placed. No harm meant, but flashr's is better.

Hey Geniuses,

Take a look at the actual Starbucks logo and you'll see the stars are not centered, they are lowered like in mine.

I do agree that I could have done better with the bottom text.

I did not copy from that other guy, I have the original Starbucks logo as an Illustrator file.

^ hahahah, hey "genius" in the original starbucks logo the stars are a bit lowered just because the uppers text is wider then the bottom...

BANTER MARKET = 6 x 6 char
STARBUCKS COFFEE = 9 x 6 char

Got the idea ( the stars on the original logo can't be centered just because there is not enough space... ) ??? And do please lose that annoying arrogant "geniuses" thingie.
