Logos make or break a board. DK boards have been popping up in the What's your favorite board right now thread, and that logo is pretty fuggin cool. It got me thinking about all of the great ones (past or present) that make you go "ohhhhhh yeahhhhh":

Christenson's skull
T+C
Skip Frye
Ward Coffey
Surf Prescriptions (he's got a subtle white backdrop behind his script that looks really sick on color)
DK

This isn't even scratching the surface. What else??? Screen Shot 2022-09-28 at 2.01.51 PM.png

Had one of these when I was a teen.
Think Brom might have done a little copying?

It's true.

A thoughtful logo can really augment a board.

A crap logo can leave you completely disinterested.

I wont touch a HPSB if it has a logo placed in the middle top third of a board, it's just something I find awful in terms of aesthetics. It looked fine in the 1990s for the pro'z who would line up stickers down the middle of the nose to the board's logo.
