Spring RTS Engine

I like that one. Only bit I'm not sure about is the words 'epic engine', but s'alright. RTS engine might be better.

Otherwise 5.

Want to be careful with the wide, squished font or else it looks too much like this:



which is nice, but we don't want to buy shoes for our peewees.

Zpock, I might run one last poll, is there any chance I could get your vector art for your logo and modify it a bit? Or, if you're lazy just drop the font name.

Well, I couldn't find it so I manually modified the vectors heavily, I can email you the file or something if you want it.

Talking about fonts, did you try out some more interesting ones? I think the one you used is a bit too round and unblocky, I guess it could be a bad idea to use some really over the top font, but it would be nice to see some experimentation with this?



This one would be great wouldn't it, hehe.

Springcraft! I kept the fonts more universal because I didn't want to imply that Spring has anyone one theme. Also a more universal font will work better in cases where people are pairing the Spring logo when their own mod's logo. Anyways, that'd be great if you could email it to me, Neuralize( at )yahoo.com.

No, it's hard to read = not easy to remember = pointless logo.

The Springcraft logo is a joke of course, but all game logos I can think of do have pretty non standard fonts:

Actually TA's font is called Haettenschweiler and it should be installed on Windows by default iirc.

That lazy genoius amateur Chris Taylor... At least they covered it up with that fancy metal plating texture. I think most of the game logos use letters that are custom drawn? It's a big part of the games personality

This wouldn't have quite cut it would it?



Altough ironically, the DoW does use something that looks like slightly (but very effectively) modified Times new roman...

Why are we looking at logos from very very old games?

HAO DID YU DU THAT!?!

1. Google "starcraft font", to get the font, for example:

http://www.dafont.com/starcraft.font

Note that this is NOT actually 100% the same as the real starcraft font. Look at the S for example, in the real one its like a mirrored straight Z while this one is more curvy. The real one has 2 different kinds of T:s.

2. Photoshop layer styles, 2identical layers of the text in black, with the bottom one shown having fill 0% so its just the red stuff from the layer style that shows, on top of the other layer:



The "color overlay" was just to get a blue tint, was black text from the start in both layers.

Actually, I also like Neuralize's sunflower logo best!

We're not changing the logo.

Well, currently there is no logo. Just a million different similar logos. I posted a new poll. It will be the final poll. Unless someone has a good reason to convince me otherwise.

I like #2. It has a retro feel and reminds me of gorm's old sperm eating avatar.

Thank you.

We can tweak it or modify it, but it's staying the half sun.

Gota say 2 aswell, but maybe adjust teh font slightly? The idea is right, but the font isn't perfect.

Now... were the hells that avatar gone...

3 with the sun of 1 or 1 with the font of 3.
