New logo maybe?

Post by earlgrey »

hey, soh, you can warp this to the technical if you want, but i wanted to put it where more people would see it...lemme know what you guys think...my fav is the one with cables going in and out of the background...
i thought a volcanic type theme was appropriate for Obsidian Order


-midlothian/isitar

P.S. looks like they lost some of thier ql when i saved them as jpegs...still have the origional psd files with all layers though...so any comments, suggestions would be cool...

props to deviantart.com for some cool idea starters

Really cool idea :)

Make two for the phpBB if you like. Have to be like this:

1. Transparent GIF 200x91
2. Transparent GIF 122x56

Size doesn't have to be 100% this, but the big and small should be about these sizes.

Then I'll let a logo stay on forums for a week or so :)

Good idea ? New logo's from time to time :)


BTW: How ya like Soz's banner ?

I really like the lettering style, but the background seems to dominate, especially at the smaller sizes :(

Anything you can try that might change the contrast a little so the letters "pop" a bit more?

/wtb a Whatchuwant sig logo :wink:

Well, it's not all about the size, but the space for the logo aswell, what good would the forums be if the logo was 1/2 of the screen :D

Can you send me the psd file ? Use WinZip or WinRAR, then I can adjust it to fit the forum for you, I have to manually FTP upload them anyway.

My e-mail is in my profile :)

Really cool picture, looks like a screenshot from a dark mysterious computergame :) Zombies coming out of the door any moment now *waiting*

What do you use to create the picture ? Tools etc ?

I've never had any talent with photo editing, but I've been working with acrylics on canvas lately, trying to do interesting things with mathmatical equations. Like this:
