Logo Idea
« on: March 27, 2003, 04:48:57 am »
I dig frosty's logo on black and this is kinda a take off of it.

I am visualizing a horizontal view of an illuminated trackball.  From the trackball, 5 streaks would rise, much like the streaks on the defender side art.  Above the streaks, instead of spelling out defender, it would have B Y O A C.  Of course the BYOAC would be the same blocky type letters used on the defender side art.

Check out saint's guidelines.....  No copyright violations.  With that being said a parody of another game won't necessarily do that, but putting a specific game style on a design alienates all the people who don't care for that game or it's artwork.  

Just my two cents, but there are some good ideas in there.... :)

Ok...this is a rough draft.  the letters on top arent slanted like I like it

Ok...this is more than what I had in mind.  I am just throwing out an Idea.  Mr Frosty, I apologize for the blatent theft of the lower half of your artwork.  I am just not that good.

Ok so here is one with the letters a little more of the way I like it.  Got the colors a little better as well.  If anyone would like to "play" with this idea, feel free to post in this thread and share.
