Righteous Wrath Logo/Banner Request
« on: December 14, 2010, 10:28:05 AM »
Hey everyone,

So I was thinking and we really need a logo/banner for the site.  I was hoping for something contrasting the two words, Righteous and Wrath.  Although I have ideas, I am not artistic by any means.

Do you guys have an idea?  Can you create some and post them here?  I'd love to see what you can do.

Any interest?

Nah... that has been on the "Coming Soon" site forever.  With some changes coming up, there might actually be a site coming... so wanted a fresh logo!

What kind of design are you looking for??

What colours are you after?

Ya also are we staying with the default forum skin? How about v2 of the forum, I think the skin is a little different.

I leave that to your choices... pick some.  We have used White, Black and Red in the past, as well as Black and Gold.

One step at a time.  I am working on other things at the moment for the site, so can't think of a Forum upgrade just yet.

For the record, I really like the current (default) skin, the light blue and sky blue are very easy on the eyes. Would prefer any future change avoids red/orange/green high-contrast mixes.

I will make a couple of logos and drop 'em in the thread.

What dimensions do you need?

Banners would be at least 750 wide... height, whatever looks good.

Logos, largest you can give me, as we can shrink to fit (and see how they look), but want but keep them w=h as much as possible.

Well, generally I work at 400 dpi so, you could have it poster size haha. I will try to figure out a good ratio. I'm already thinking one of two designs:
1. Sort of a basic "Web 2.0" style banner
2. A steampunk rusted metal looking thing

I'll try to get on these before the weekend...

1. Most forum logos only occupy a small rectangle of space in the top left
2. Vector art would be easy to reuse at any resolution / dpi. When talking only about logos most are kept simple in detail and in vector format for this reason.

Thanks for pointing this out, although I think Mr. A (and most graphical peeps) probably already knew this :P.  But good information for any whom didn't.  And yes I have software that works with Vector images.

While I have Illustrator I don't know if I'm gonna vector it, if I raster it at high res you should be able to reduce it to whatever size works.
