I would like someone to create a special Logo, but who should I look for? Let me explain!
I want to create a design that shows the CO2 and Water usage of products, this design will be printed on different products.
But every product has a different CO2 and Water Usage. This means that the Logo has the be adaptive. I will have to be able to change the percentage measures in the Logo.
For example:
Bottled Water (50% Water Usage, 20% CO2 Usage)
Plastic Bag (80% Water Usage, 40% CO2 Usage)
What kind of professional can create such a Logo? I was trying to text some Logo designers on Zombo.com but no one could design a Logo I have to adapt later.
What is the name of the professional I can contact?
Sounds like you are looking for some sort of app that you can plug in 50% water and 20% CO2 and have a logo dynamically (automatically) generated and saved in a format you could use. Hmm. That’s an interesting problem to solve. I’ve never worked on a project like this, so I don’t have an immediate answer. The thing to do would be a one-on-one interview to probe into the details with regards to how the logo will be used to come up with the best solution. My strong hunch is that the more automated the process is, the more it’s going to cost you in terms of initial budget – but your ROI should be there over the long term.
I’m unsure I’d call what you’re needing a logo. It’s more like a consistent and recognizable piece of artwork where you’d modify the words and percentages as needed.
Since you want to be able to change the words and numbers as needed, you’d need software to enable you to do that. You likely wouldn’t want a recurring monthly fee for the software, so Affinity Designer would work.
Can you grab a screen capture? If so, just paste it into the reply field. You can also save what you have to .jpg or .png and drag and drop it into the reply field.
Good summary. I need the Icon and I will have to be able to change the yellow bar around it depending on the product.
I just founded an NGO, I am calculating the impact of products. I calculate Water Usage, GWP100 (CO2 Gases), Waste and Fair Labour.
All for Icons should have a bar around it which I will have to be able to change, depending on the product. That Graphic will later be printed on products of small and medium sized companies.
This is all off the top of my head, but assuming you used Affinity Designer (or any graphics software), you’d need some minimum skills in the program. In Adobe Illustrator, there are graph making tools that could handle the percentage changes to redraw the circle (it’s basically a pie chart). However, you’d need a monthly subscription to the software.
Another way to handle it would be to create 130–360 versions of the graphic, then just choose the one you need based on the percentage breakdowns. That sounds like a lot of work, but not all that difficult.
@Just-B has good advice. If you are only doing whole percentages, in theory you could just create (or have someone create) an initial batch of each variant and label them as such, then you have a library that you can just select the appropriate version instead of creating it on the fly.
You could even do 5% increments so you’d only need 20 versions of the icon rather than 100 versions of the icon. I don’t know if the end user will be able to spot that an icon that is for 14%, for example, is graphically 15%.
I see that is what you mean. So just to clarify, I can ask someone to create the Graphic I want just with different percentages. I could also go with 5 pertage of steps at the beginning. So I wouldn’t need to many pictures.
Yes, As @Steve_O and @Just-B recommended I would create or have someone create the 20 versions you need and then you have the library of icons that you can use as needed.
I was thinking about the 5 percent changes. But to have that in the Graphic I updated is maybe not possible. I would need an extremely high amount of pictures.
Or did I misunderstood ur solutions? I am more sure
