He was probably just trying to find a nice way to say that they don't look good. So please make more logos :)

Zero-K stands for zero kelvin (also writable as "0 K") which is also known as absolute zero. It was chosen because it was a broad enough scientific concept to allow for a lot of creativity in plot but specific enough to have a meaning to it. It manages to be recognizable but still be easy to remember, and isn't any trouble to pronounce. Trust me, this name choice was not just a passing whim of some dev. If you guys are really all that set against it, perhaps start a new thread for name suggestions.

[edit]tbh I had prefered 'Ecce Machina' myself, but it was decided that was too hard to pronounce or remember[/edit]

I really like this one. Although that is the Starcraft font off of da font, isn't it :wink:? Probably it would be better for something less blatently ripped, although I suppose awesome original free to use fonts aren't super easy to come by.

then what should be diferent, i mean its a bit hard to texture a nice planet, blending at the same time a sun flare, and a background color.

So can you tell me what exactly should be altered, you want a better planet, what about the solar flare in the latest i focused my atention on these.

i will alter the font, thanks for the warning ^^, any preferences??

feel free to dislike or like, but add the areas you want to be altered pls^^
only then can i really do something about it

I liked it when he tried to make a 32x32 icon and the text was barely legible, then the colour blind person said it was just a fuzzy splodge and there was no text.....

You cant judge a logo based purely on how well it sits as a piece of art. You have to be practical

Id like to see a case study composed of the basic core logo in its bare form and the various additions and modifications, a logo spec of how its meant to work would be good too

This is a logo. I think Rattle's is sufficient, though I didn't mind the small version of the original Saktoth was working with.

Well I dunno where you are pointing at, but I never thought scifi's pictures would serve as a pure logos but rather like loading screens or game concept art... which they in that sense are very pretty...

I love Rattle's logo except one thing - make it a slashed 0

makes it clear that it's zero-K, no "okay".
