This is the main logo for the boards currently.

Keep the same blue and try to make a logo to fit the boards!

oh jeez. I also just noticed that the gradient that I made absolutely will not mesh with the rest of the bar (the one that continues to the left of it).

I'll work on it.

Post by: Dubbilex on November 16, 2003, 10:50:39 AM: Redone! I took a screen of the bar to the right of the actual logo so the gradients would match up. the only other problem that I can forsee is maybe mismatched borders - if you were to use this picture, I think that the rest of the bar to the right would most likely have to be done in the same dimensions as my picture for it to look right.

Just tell me what you think :)

Post by: Dubbilex on November 16, 2003, 02:47:05 PM: But it looks sweet :D

Do you have any concept of how utterly terrible it looks with Tux alone?

What's more, I'm too lazy to whip up a cool tux design that fits the style. Meh.

Post by: Narfwak on November 16, 2003, 09:38:33 PM: I think it definitely needs tux. Gem's is okay (doesn't match up very well, but meh), but I'd prefer one with a tux.
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: BOZO on November 16, 2003, 09:40:30 PM: I dont know that is HAS to have Tux...Gem's is good but I like ABS' better.
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: Dubbilex on November 16, 2003, 09:41:11 PM: ABS's would be great - if it FIT <_<
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: Hida Tsuzua on November 16, 2003, 09:42:10 PM: Good job Gem. They were all good. I do have to admit I am "little" biased towards Dubb's work. :p
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: A Boojum Snark on November 16, 2003, 09:45:06 PM: Mine fits...
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: Dubbilex on November 16, 2003, 09:55:10 PM: Why thank you, Hida :p Although admittedly my submission was a shameless hack :blink:

and ABS - Wouldn't the bubbles throw it the crap off? The original graphic is rectangular. An oddly-shaped graphic like that wouldn't mesh well with the bar to the right of it, it seems o_O Although I'm most likely wrong....
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: A Boojum Snark on November 16, 2003, 09:58:04 PM: The original is a gif with a transparent border around the blue area that overlaps the gradient on the page, only difference with mine is I have bubbles/penguins in the transparent border :) so yeh, yer wrong :p

Post by: Uranium - 235 on November 16, 2003, 11:03:47 PM: Gems is sorta goofy... doesn't line up.
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: Geminosity on November 17, 2003, 01:36:38 AM: lines up ok on my screen :huh:

whatever, I just threw it in to help out =3
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: Dubbilex on November 17, 2003, 04:45:25 AM: Truthfully, I severely doubt that any of ours would line up (look at the bottoms and tops and the bevels therein). Getting those right WHILE getting the gradient right would be a VERY lucky thing indeed <_<
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: BOZO on November 17, 2003, 06:33:03 AM: LOL! Thorax has a great one.
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: Geminosity on November 17, 2003, 10:27:56 AM: ahhhhhh!!!!!!

now I see XD

I'm using firebird and it lines up perfectly, but when I checked it in IE it doesn't match up at all. ick... well here's an IE version anyways.
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: Geminosity on November 17, 2003, 10:35:27 AM: hmm... I think the main problem is the top and bottom, while the one above should work great with ie it'll look ick with any Netscape-based browsers. I made this one which cuts off the more annoyingly obvious bits; it's still IE biased so it should look fine for them but with the transparencies I've added it should hopefully look less horrible for NS-based browsers too (though the gradient is slightly different between the two browsers =s )
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: Lightning Blue on November 17, 2003, 10:42:58 AM: Yes, that does look alot nicer, thanks Gem! However, it looks like the text is wrapping or something? :help:

Two things:

Tux isn't required.

I'll prolly work up a rotating image solution.
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: Geminosity on November 17, 2003, 10:50:29 AM: ick! I think that's the transparency matting, try this cleaned version then ^^;

but wow... the gradient difference isn't as obvious as i thought on NS =o

-caek is good but pai is better
-stabstab!

etc.

Post by: Gunner2k on December 16, 2003, 02:58:58 PM: ThoraX, how do you outline your letters like that. I think your using Photoshop 7, Like me and dubb. Just wanted to know.
Title: Fun With Logos!
Post by: ThoraX on December 16, 2003, 11:59:03 PM: nope, i use photoshop 6. the outline for letters is using that 'stroke' filter thingy... i dunno what t's called i just know how to use it. ^^
