I've made a logo for this contest.. I know it's nothing much, but i guess it's not the worst one. XCF can be posted.

Any suggestions?

Perhaps spend a weee bit more time on it

It was actually about 10 hours straight from prototyping fonts and quote styles to the final designs. Which is pretty long when the final design is just the text <rizon> and a quote bubble saying "Where are you?" :/

edit: but then there are:
3 color iterations
3 bubble iterations
6 stroke iterations
2 caps iterations
3 text iterations

which leads to 324 possible logos
so i guess 10 hours is an alright time for creating 324 logos

edit2: there were about 10 different font considerations between the "Where are you?" text and the main "rizon" text. I settled on ProFont for "Where are you?" since it's arguably one of the best monospace fonts and most IRC clients default to various monospace fonts, and Myriad Pro for "rizon" because it's generally a great font, and extremely similar to Helvetica but offering a condensed typeface (which was used here).

So what are you doing in 3 days? Setting up a poll in a new thread?

Nope, going to discuss with oper team on which logo/logo's are the best then we will take it from there.

We will put every entry into a hat and draw one at random.

Since I'm always flying Rizon, I thought I could kill some time and contribute some.



It was supposed to look like a feather, but, eh, guess it looks more like fire, lol...
Anyway, besides this I made an slightly altered to also fit more on a transparent/bright background.

It's mostly vector art, so np to resize. Also looks ok in 256colors gif/png-8. Though these are png-24.

Far too light to read, either lower the highlight on Where are you or add a darker stroke.

Otherwise one of the two or three truly good ones so far.

Someone suggested (outside of the forums) that I replace the O with the world.

Smart smart smart fits in well with "where are you", I might try this if it's not already closed (26th inclusive or exclusive?)
