Hi all, so I see a lot of topics here about BLF lights and so on... I think it's nice to have BLF on a light, but.... IS there a BLF logo or something? Something a little more visual... If not, can we make one? I think a logo would work better on some lights?! :)
That reminds me of one episode of "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia" when Dennis inherits his dead mother's mansion and the guys (Dennis, Mac & Charlie) decide to make it a party house and recruit new guys into their "gang" so they can pass on the legacy of their accomplishments. They end up creating a flyer to be passed out to get recruits but are worried about it sounding gay so the design it to look like a bicep (very manly) and go to a local sporting goods store and begin handing it out...
Dennis and Mac are unable to understand why potential recruits are looking at them strangely and throwing away their flyers. While it finally dawns on them that their flyers look as much like a phallic member as it does a bicep, Charlie comes up to them after handing out some flyers and the following ensues...
Charlie:(about Ernesto) You should have seen how passionate he got when I showed him the dick flyer.
Dennis: You knew?
Mac: You knew that it was a dick?
Charlie: Well, yeah, I thought we changed it. I thought you guys were changing it.
Dennis: It was always—it was always meant to be a bicep.
Mac: It was a bicep, bro.
Charlie: Well, then why didn't you cut it like w—'cause it looks totally like a dick. I thought, well, all right, let's go with the dick thing. It's more masculine anyway.
Mac: Good point.
Charlie: I mean, sh*t, if you want it to be a bicep it needs more veins.

Brilliantly written show and if you aren't already watching it you don't know what you are missing!!
I don't have the skill to do this, but how about a drawing looking down the bezel of a flashlight (a circle) with the text BLF across the center with the drawn image of an LED emitter centered between the L and F.
Another idea is graphic BLF, with the staff of the"B" being an image of a flashlight. Along these lines, you could also make the staff of the "B" be a dollar sign and the staff of the "L" or the "F" be a flashlight.
yet another concept would be simply to place a graphic BLF above a drawn image of the flashlight. The flare out of the head end would fit in nicely under the F and then you could have a few lines representing light coming out of the end.
I think SirJohns logo is the best i've seen so far and better than what i could come up with. I'm an architecture student so I often have to make graphical things, but running low on inspiration atm.
