Change the colour in the background of the logo? To the colour of the helmet perhaps?

Screenshot your club screen and paste it into paint, use the colour select tool to mimic the helmets colour and voila.

The problem I always had with designing a helmet logo, was that I could never get the background of my design to blend in exactly with the helmet colour.

The reason for this is because the helmet colour isn't one solid band of colour - it's actually several different tones, so whenever I thought I had found a perfect colour match, it wouldn't blend in with the helmet colour at every corner.

That's where Cameron's top tip helped me out. I saved a copy of my team's homepage, and then opened the helmet picture in Paint.

Then I cropped a 49 by 49 pixel square of the helmet into Paint and used that as my canvas.

As 49x49 pixels doesn't give you much to work with, I expanded the canvas size to 490x490 pixels to work on my canvas design, then when I was done, shrunk it back to 49x49 pixels then uploaded that image to overlay perfectly over my team's helmet.

Hope this helps anyone who is thinking of designing their own helmet logo but hasn't gotten round to it yet.
