Josh Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 I like that last one, a lot. The lettering is very beautiful. Since this is going to be displayed at a variety of resolutions, it makes sense to have the outer edge of the image black. Then I can just display it on a black background. The background is rather blurry, and the top and bottom are cut off. Would it be possible to fix this?

Canardia Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Logos should be always made in svg format, so they are vectors and scalable. You can do amazing things with vectors.

Josh Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 Logos should be always made in svg format, so they are vectors and scalable. You can do amazing things with vectors. It's not necessary to insert these kinds of guerrilla marketing comments trying to push whatever obscure file format or technology you are taken with at the moment. It's very annoying, and you alone are not sufficient to start a viral trend, if that is your intent. Obviously logos are almost always made with vector graphics. We are previewing concepts here, not shipping a finished product. In any case, the file format the author chooses to use is totally irrelevant to the conversation. 3 Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.

gamecreator Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I've made the changes you requested. I can make the background clearer still but I think it would draw too much attention from the lettering. It also defeats the purpose (and contrasts heavily) if the rest of the title screen is black. Finally, you may want more of the edge to be black, as it drops pretty shaply now. That said, I'm happy to send you the Photoshop file so you can tweak it to your heart's content. It has about 7 layers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamecreator Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 And should you change your mind about the rest of the title screen being black... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daimour Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 And should you change your mind about the rest of the title screen being black... You should make second picture with black background for comparing. Because when people are not designers they can't make such decision without visual comparing. And I think here is the question more about technical capabilities rather then aesthetic things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted October 11, 2012 Author Share Posted October 11, 2012 What I really like about it is it captures the feel of the original designs from my Quake days: http://www.leadwerks...arkness-awaits/ It's really the lettering that is the win. That could be used on a variety of backgrounds. Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.

Road Kill Kenny Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I like it because it is simple yet detailed enough without going over the top. Looks clean and professional...

Rick Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 What if you make an eye in the background where that 5 star circle thing you have is the pupil? The eye should be sort of faint and blend in slightly so people start chatting about how they think that's an eye. That'll add a little human element to it.

Josh Posted October 20, 2012 Author Share Posted October 20, 2012 Here's the PSD file. Feel free to play around with it, everyone. Thank you very much, gamecreator.

gamecreator Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Glad I could help. Hopefully someone can create a nice background for it and maybe improve the text too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisV Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Nice text logo, gamecreator!! I like it very much. Would it be possible to upload only the text layer as a PSD file (with a transparent background)? I don't have Photoshop, but Paintshop, which doesn't load the PSD files with all the features.
