So, today, I happened upon an ad for Guinness that had "extra cold" written on it. Being that I am currently obsessed with my upcoming August excursion 'round to Newfoundland, I started to get an idea. And this is what I came up with.

and also this

So? Is it lame in a mildly funny way or just lame in a lame way?
 

I think it's cute.

Although you could try it with "Extra Cod" instead.... would work well for a bottle of screech. :-)

I think they're brilliant!  In light of the timing of your excursion (and the fact that I'm a Viking anyway) I'd probably have put EXTRA WILD or something, but that's just my own oddball sense of humor - and I haven't anything like your mad viz skillz!

Those are really funny, you guys. Actually, now that I think about it, I could put all sorts of stuff in the little slogan. Extra Fun. Extra Friendly. Extramarital?

Or with a little flying saucer over the iceberg:  EXTRATERRESTRIAL!  (Hey, everyone assures me the place is truly out of this world...)

Love, Columbine 

And a little speech balloon - "E.T., what're you at?"

Very nice actually, don't let Living Planet see those. ;)  I think locals and tourists here would like those.  Why not contact Licing Planet, maybe they buy ideas like that.

Why thank you :) I actually know of Living Planet - I once admired their "Free NFLD" logo on one of Sean's shirts and had to track it down.

I doubt they'd have any interest in the design, but maybe I will try to contact them . . . eh, what could it hurt?

Actually, a couple weeks ago, I discovered CafePress's design templates and went on a little semi-creative Newfoundland-centered binge. This is the other one I came up with (yeah, it's silly, but I was in a silly mood) -

It's fun seeing your designs on actual STUFF.  

Thank you :)

I am seriously considering getting a tote bag made with that logo to take with me to Newfoundland this summer, but I don't know if a) Newfoundlanders would feel offended/objectified by this ("Hey! Eyes up HERE, you randy Yankee!") and b) if one can legitimately call Newfoundland a province, since it's technically Newfoundland and Labrador.

 

Well, I can't speak for the citizens of Newfoundland, but I think the design is cute and fun.  I like it a lot.

I love that design and the others you did as well!    Hey, you could bring the tote to the Ridgefield show!

Now that is a darned good idea!!!
