Official HaloMods Logo Design Contest

Post by Geo »

Welcome to the official HaloMods Logo Design Contest!

We are looking for a new HaloMods logo, and you're going to design it.

Rules:
  • Your image must be saved as .png
  • Your image must be 270x70
  • Your image must include the word "HaloMods"
  • Your image must be designed to work with the current forum/site layout. Bear in mind it will be used for the front-page, too.
How to make a submission:
Host your image externally, on a site such as Photobucket or ImageShack. If you have you're own hosting, that's also fine.
You must post your logo, as well as a preview on the forum and front-page. Use these images for your previews.

Use the following format when you post:

Code: Select all

[color=#004080][size=130]My Submission:[/size][/color]
[img]Logo.png[/img]
[img]Logo_On_Forum.png[/img]
[img]Logo_On_Front_Page.png[/img]
-------------------------------------------------
You may post several designs, but the one you wish to submit must be in the format shown above. If it is not, it will not go through to the voting stage.
Submissions will close Wednesday 25th February at midnight GMT.

Wide Awake font.

Can you post 2 different versions, Since some logos will look great on the blue background but horrible on the white one. It doesn't make any sense to use the same logo for 2 different backgrounds. If you want it on both, You should allow two submissions.

My Submission:
Logo on the forums
Image
Logo on the front page

The samples are bigger by just a tad bit, I forgot about the size restrictions and so I went ahead and fix the actual logos.

The second one is the best of those by far.

Sarb, could you post yours without the drop shadow? I'm curious to see how it looks on the layout.

I'd like to point out that Numerical's submission is not in the correct format.

It's not 270x70. Neither is RaVN's.

Your submission can only be one image, it has to be universal, I'm afraid.

Okay, I wasn't sure, because you never responded to Trulife's question:
Trulife8342 wrote:Can you post 2 different versions, Since some logos will look great on the blue background but horrible on the white one. It doesn't make any sense to use the same logo for 2 different backgrounds. If you want it on both, You should allow two submissions.
Honestly though, a truly good logo design should be able to stand alone on almost any color. However, they obviously wouldn't use the regular coke logo (for example) on an all-white background without changing its color.

In any case, my logo doesn't really look good with the light blue on the white background, so I think I will just not enter the contest.
