But I didn’t know what I wanted in the logo, the imagery, the colors, the style and never got down to it at the start.</p>\n<p>Over the past few days, I had an idea of what I wanted – the rope and tire swing. I just had to decide what kind of a tree the rope and tire swing was to hang from. Looking online, I saw a bunch of trees, I was inspired and drew a few sketches on paper. Of those paper sketches I liked, I drew the finalized sketches on my smart-phone using the free <a href=\"https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adsk.sketchbookhdexpress&#x26;hl=en\">SketchBook Express App</a>. The final two selections, I saved the sketches and emailed the .png files to myself.</p>\n<p>I then edited it in <a href=\"https://www.gimp.org/macintosh/\">GIMP</a>.</p>\n<p>Then came the arduous, exciting, heartbreaking task of deciding on a font. I always love and hate choosing fonts. I finally decided on the free <a href=\"https://www.google.com/fonts/specimen/Philosopher\">Philosopher</a> font.</p>\n<p>And voila! The Rope and Tire logo!</p>\n<p><span\n      class=\"gatsby-resp-image-wrapper\"\n      style=\"position: relative; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 590px; \"\n    >\n      <a\n    class=\"gatsby-resp-image-link\"\n    href=\"/static/38d2c47784ac7b1bcbb5d76a03df2482/2cffa/ropeandtirelogo-philosopher-blacktree-flat10924.png\"\n    style=\"display: block\"\n    target=\"_blank\"\n    rel=\"noopener\"\n  >\n    <span\n    class=\"gatsby-resp-image-background-image\"\n    style=\"padding-bottom: 21.62162162162162%; position: relative; bottom: 0; left: 0; background-image: url('data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAABQAAAAECAIAAAABPYjBAAAACXBIWXMAAAsTAAALEwEAmpwYAAAAuUlEQVQI143POwqEMBQAQC9s52UsrLRKE2xsjI2IIDaKHzAQLASDQW0UQc17Wdi9wM4Nxuq6LgzDOI4ZY1mWve9r/mYFQeA4TtM0lNJ5njnnRVFIKdd1XZblOI5935VSQohxHPu+b9tWSqmUQkQrz3PbthljrusaY6qqiqLI931KKSGEc04ISdPU87y6rqdpSpIk/gIAa9u2siyFEMMwGGMQ8Xme8zyVUvrrui4AuO9ba42IWmsA+O0+qK3QVMKeUwAAAAAASUVORK5CYII='); background-size: cover; display: block;\"\n  ></span>\n  <img\n        class=\"gatsby-resp-image-image\"\n        alt=\"The rope and tire logo\"\n        title=\"The rope and tire logo\"\n        src=\"/static/38d2c47784ac7b1bcbb5d76a03df2482/fcda8/ropeandtirelogo-philosopher-blacktree-flat10924.png\"\n        srcset=\"/static/38d2c47784ac7b1bcbb5d76a03df2482/12f09/ropeandtirelogo-philosopher-blacktree-flat10924.png 148w,\n/static/38d2c47784ac7b1bcbb5d76a03df2482/e4a3f/ropeandtirelogo-philosopher-blacktree-flat10924.png 295w,\n/static/38d2c47784ac7b1bcbb5d76a03df2482/fcda8/ropeandtirelogo-philosopher-blacktree-flat10924.png 590w,\n/static/38d2c47784ac7b1bcbb5d76a03df2482/efc66/ropeandtirelogo-philosopher-blacktree-flat10924.png 885w,\n/static/38d2c47784ac7b1bcbb5d76a03df2482/2cffa/ropeandtirelogo-philosopher-blacktree-flat10924.png 1092w\"\n        sizes=\"(max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px\"\n        style=\"width:100%;height:100%;margin:0;vertical-align:middle;position:absolute;top:0;left:0;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n      />\n  </a>\n    </span></p>","frontmatter":{"title":"The Rope and Tire Logo","date":"May 24, 2015","url":"/the-rope-and-tire-logo/","tags":["Thoughts"]}}},"pageContext":{"slug":"/the-rope-and-tire-logo/","previous":{"fields":{"slug":"/the-year-without-pants-best-book-in-april-2015/2015-05-22-the-year-without-pants-best-book-in-april-2015/"},"frontmatter":{"title":"The Year without pants – Best book in April (2015)","url":"/the-year-without-pants-best-book-in-april-2015/","tags":["Books","the-best-book-I-read-last-month"]}},"next":{"fields":{"slug":"/2015-05-25-no-time-200-words-project/"},"frontmatter":{"title":"No time – 200 words project","url":"/no-time-200-words-project/","tags":["200-words-project"]}}}},"staticQueryHashes":["3128451518","426816048"]}
