Falco? Wow, no that's not why.

Ecce Machina http://gov.caspring.org/index.php?limit ... traclink=1

There are several more polls of names I never even heard discussed but they can be viewed here... http://gov.caspring.org/

So as you (AF and others) can see we've been over and over it. Name has been decided.

That was Saktoth's explanation, and I asked for no elaboration at the time. I forgot that many decisions are nominally - if not always actually - made by voting these days.

A logo is NOT a photoshop layer effect.

That sounds like a troll, and it is.

--- You need to put effort in the design instead of the effects. A thing that's supposed to look like a moon, that doesn't even look like a moon, with some plastic glow is not a very good logo. Layout first, effects second.

Either way, I have a valid point. It does not look like that at all and the bad effect only makes it worse.

You got some vendetta against our art efforts, Hoi? Jesus give it a rest. Photoshop was not involved in this in the slightest those gradients are made using vector graphics. Have you even used photoshop? None of its effects look remotely like that.

IK: Nice, would you release that under a permissive license so that we can use it?

What art efforts? The art efforts from other people not related to your project? The art efforts you take from them and abuse to make them into 400 different units that all look the same?

So if I dislike something I shouldn't try to help?

Photoshop does that too ;)

Sure? I could make exactly the same logo with photoshop in 5 minutes.

Hoi, I agree the logo needs work but you don't have to be a dick about it.

Keep your logo simple, you can always add effects later on.

Yeah, keep it simple. I like Sabutai's 1st and 2nd logo. For a logo to work you need to be able to make it in 2/3 flat colors and it should still be clearly visible at that point. Look at the core logo, and at the arm logo. They are basic shapes that deliver some sort of a message.

If you're going to write 0 K as the actual logo, I'd go with a slashed zero so it doesn't look like you're just saying okay.
