The rules of this PV are simple, and I make no apologies if such a competition has been made before...

(1) Take a famous corporate logo (e.g. McDonalds, FedEx, IBM etc.)
(2) Add some photoshop wizadry
(3) Post both original and doctored images into this thread

Bonus points can be had from:

(4) Twilight Zone Factor: using the logo of the corporation in my head right now (mysterious...)
(5) Socratic Irony Factor: producing a logo which actually betrays the ugly truth about a given corporation

Rule (6), however, is the most important: if it ain't funny, you won't win.

Here's an example to get your creative juices flowing in the right direction:

I'll judge it when I think there have been enough entries to make the judgement process worthwhile.

There's a site that should be useful, there's a section of all logos in vector format.

Easy target and old joke, but hey, at least it's all pretty and Illustrator-ish...

Oh, no original there - I made it all from scratch in Illustrator. Still, I suspect we all know the logo in question...

Again, no original - 100% Illustrator job (though I had to trace an origianal logo).

"Only things I approve of should exist." -some guy on the internet

I looks around for nice big clear originals to work from in Photoshop, but couldn't find any, so I got nice big crappy ones and traced them in Illustrator. The Microsoft one actually has some Photoshopping in it, unlike the first two.

I plan on making more - just waiting for the muse to hit...

Goddamn you're good. I said goddamn. I also said you're good. Then I put them together. And I meant every word. All three. Or maybe four. There's a contraction, so I'm not really sure how that affects the word count. Also goddamn is like two words put together, so that might bring the count up to five, unless the contraction doesn't count, which would make it four. Or it could be the original three words I mentioned eaerlier if the contraction and the two words together don't count as extra instances of words. Goddamn.

Out of curiosity, could someone explain the 76 / $2.76 one to this Aussie?

The 76 is a gas station company. They sell gas. And sometimes snacks.

and it was a Ganhdi esque outcry of rebellion at the escalating gas prices. just a couple of years ago gas was consistently around $1.50. now it's up over $3 most places. this after it rising only a dollar in like 3 decades. blargal snargal, i say. blargal snargal.

It's even worse in Canada. Right now it's at around $1.20 per litre which is almost twice as much I believe.
