Forum:New Wiki Logo

Hello everyone- as we've switched out theme, I would like to suggest switching our logo as well. The below made-in-5-minutes image is what I think our logo should look like now, DON'T WORRY, I'm not saying that the image below IS the new logo, I, personally will be working on a much better version of below image when I get the time, but the image is a basic outline of what I suggest it should look like. Anyone who is photoshop/Gimp savvy- if you feel like you can submit a better logo- feel free to do so, let's get a few MW3 based logos. Blackout I'm back! 13:05, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

The 'Wiki' part of the logo is not very good - the form of the letters that appear to fade into light isn't too clear. It's a good idea though to change the logo - slight modifications would be better and approvable for a wider community. 13:08, June 22, 2011 (UTC)


 * That's what I'm saying in my original post, when I get the time (or someone else), we fix the 'Wiki' part. Tomahawk.png  Blackout I'm back! Tomahawk.png  13:53, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

LMFAO. That's not gonna pass as a logo. You're definitely correct, it will need A LOT of fixing. For starters, it's in .JPG format, we need it to be in .PNG instead. However, the general idea you're attempting to convey seems passable, so I'll go with it. 15:08, June 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well then, go convert it to .PNG then.16:34, June 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * There's no point in it. We might as well recreate what he was trying to show us from scratch. 16:44, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

You have a good idea, but it looks pretty bad ATM. The ends of the "K" are fading into the background. 16:34, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

IS NO ONE LISTENING?! THAT is not the finished logo! It's just what the main idea is- get the MW3 font to say "Wiki"- IT IS NOT what I'm submitting! Freaking A! -_____-"   Blackout I'm back!   17:24, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

Hmmm... Pardon me for being the rain on the parade, but I really don't see the need for changing the logo just because MW3 is coming out. Is it really necessary to change the wiki logo and/or theme for every new CoD game? I mean, functionally necessary? Sgt. S.S. 20:55, June 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * No, but that's not a reason for why we shouldn't. 13:35, June 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * I agree with Bovell on this one - the logo change isn't as frequent as you think it would, and it isn't drastically unnecessary. This new logo is what everyone sees that represents the Wiki. 14:14, June 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * it's not functionally necessary at all, but why would we not if we want to welcome a new game? 14:42, June 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * IT would also coincide with the new theme. Could JoePlay do it again? 18:18, June 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, to be honest (WARNING: PERSONAL OPINION AHEAD!), I think the proposed logo looks a bit ugly, especially the "Wiki" part. Then again, maybe it'd look better once it was converted to .png rather than .jpg. Sgt. S.S. 16:43, June 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * "THAT is not the finished logo!" l2read 18:48, June 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * I did read it. Hence, why I said "once it was converted" rather than "if it was converted". Sgt. S.S. 19:36, June 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's not how .JPGs and .PNGs work. You can convert it to .PNG with even the most basic MS Paint, but all it will do is take up more space to have no additional quality whatsoever. It would have to be re-rendered, which is a process completely separate from converting. Providing tech assistance from Japan, 10:52, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

I like it but maybe the "CALL OF DUTY" could be black? It'll look better against the white background imo. 19:44, June 23, 2011 (UTC)

That logo looks pretty sweet.

Is anyone aware of what font the MW3 logo uses? 19:38, June 24, 2011 (UTC)



A re-rendered variant of the logo This is a better idea of what the logo should look like, aside from the font and lighting. 19:52, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

I vote for this one directly above. Bioniclepluslotr 20:21, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

You need to move the 'Wiki' part slightly to the left. It looks a bit disproportionate. — 20:54, June 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Done 21:27, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

I know what effect you're going for here, but the 'Wiki' part seems a bit bright and i think it clashes with the black. 21:02, June 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Fixed. Remember this isn't final. 21:55, June 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Looks better. Much better than the one close to the top. 22:38, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

I appreciate all the input I'm getting, but this isn't the vote for the logo. We're still deciding weather the current CoD4 themed logo needs to be replaced with a new (MW3 themed) one. I just put that up as most users are thinking the the initial example was terrible, even though that wasn't the final logo; just an idea. If we do agree on a replacement, then we can vote on whatever suggestions are given. 21:42, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

Voting
This section is to decide if we're gonna switch our logo from a COD4 themed one, to a MW3 themed one. Comments and discussions about the MW3 themed logo should be put above.
