Living Life On The Edge – Logo Contest

by Deb Bixler

This is a logo that I created for print articles and have submitted it to the online logo contest at Pixal Head Online. I am not a graphic designer in any way and when showing up in print the visible logo is only the oval part, no surrounding box frame. I created it in PhotoShop and now include it with all of my print articles and use it occasionally on the internet.

Write Articles For Publications

I submit articles to many local print publications as well as online blogs and web sites in the area of healthy living and lifestyle choices. Some of the print publications which feature a regular column with my articles are geared toward young people, special needs or seniors, in regard to living healthy and enjoying life. I found that frequently in print publications, the publisher would forget to include my contact information with the article. I wanted to create a graphic that would reproduce well in both color and black and white, as well as include my contact information. I picked a wave because it represents a way of life.

Krakoosh

Krakoosh is a surfer term which as a verb means living on the edge and enjoying life! Krakoosh the verb also refers to living on the edge when you ride a wave right on the edge of the thrill and the disaster. Krakoosh is also a noun which means the sound a wave makes when you go past the thrill of riding the wave and it comes crashing down on your head. Krakooooosh! This may very well be a trademarked name as there is a surfer magazine called Krakoosh! I am not stealing their word. It is a word that I have always liked and included in my vocabulary and as inspiration, ever since I hooked up with the surfing world in Hawaii. I can surf, if you call standing up on the board for 15 seconds surfing. I am much better at the noun version of krakoosh as the waves are always crashing down on my head.

Anyway, I used my love of the surf and my favorite word krakoosh as inspiration for this logo for my healthy lifestyle articles in print. Now, I always have contact information, even if they forget to include it. It is becoming almost a brand in some publications.

    The Logo looks great Deb. I just clicked on it, and it went to a page that isn’t there if you care to change it.
