So, here's my contribution. The goal was to keep the design as simple as possible
(for better scaling and variations such as monochromatic and inverted versions)
Alternate version with yellow outline:
Logo usage example - tshirt:
in small scales ...
@Bingo:
Of course, I can provide scalable vector images as well - in SVG format (using Inkscape for my vector drawings)
The font used for the logo and wordmark is 'New Athletic M54' and according to the author it should be possible to use it freely:
http://www.dafont.com/new-athletic-m54.font
(or try to email the author first)
I hope you like it.

Do we just submit them to you or do you just want us to post them?

This isn't really a response to these posts, but more of a curiosity thing after reading these; Wouldn't CP actually be making a fair amount of money with a user base this large and ads and all that?

One bar is turned "off" (from yellow to black) for every game we lose in the playoffs. Then they are all off till the next playoffs?

I actually like the current logo, it's a very simple, recognizable logo. What I've never been able to get past is all the lines behind the puck.
There's just something about it that bugs me. I think it's because the line thingy is at an angle, while the puck is perfectly straight. Yep, actually that's exactly what it is.
EDIT: and the CP puck is a little pixelated and rough. Would be nice if it was touched up and refined.

What do you mean by "a fair amount"? I have no idea what CP makes in ad revenue, but is $1000/month a fair amount? And if that's eaten up by server costs...

Not sure what I meant actually. It was a completely out of the blue thought I just had, just pure genuine curiosity.

You're right - not a logo. But incredible. Nice work

Looking at it now the colours are way off, but here's the idea anyway:
Something the roundel logos let you do is gather in quote a bit of elements. We have the Tower and Saddledome represented; a varsity feel which is a nod to our heavy involvement with NCAA players (along with just looking cool); and what better way to harken in a new age than by having Sean Frikken' Monahan as a part of your logo?

I'm not a graphic artist but I do have an idea...
Picture a large puck flying right at you with the name CalgaryPuck written on the side... and in the background is the player who just shot the puck at the apex of his slap shot follow through.
Any good? Too difficult/busy for a logo?

I like it, but we should probably avoid using stock images for copyright issues.

Same idea, but keeping with the heritage of CP:
Always loved the interlocking 'CP' of the logo.

I have no idea of the actual dollar amounts since the finances are Bingo's side of things, but in general I don't think forums pay out much advertising, certainly a LOT less than a similar level of traffic on a more typical site.
Because while the forum might get a huge number of page views, most of those are generated by the same relatively small group of people viewing different pages. So the clickthrough rate is going to be a lot lower. There's maybe only 1500 registered users who use the site day in and day out.
I don't know the dollars, but I'd bet that they're a lot lower than one would think.

This one feels like a winner. Looks completely legitimate.

Nope, not at all. It's a good idea.
