Logo ?
Post Posted: Sat Feb 21, 2004 9:54 am
Does someone around is graphically competent enough to draw a new SMS Power logo ? We could do without, but it'll be nice to have one. I'm not sure however how it should be, but... simple.

A small version should fit in the test page (thread below) as a non-intrusive header on all pages.

If you cannot draw (like myself, who made the current logo using some girl-handwriting-font-from-some-font-collection) you may be able to provide ideas. I'm not against the idea of various a few variation around the same logo, which could be randomized on each view. For exemple, a simple logo and some SMS related characters/items around that changes with each version. That's just one idea.

I agree after seeing this, the sega font looks terrible. but however I do like the mark III font. its bold, sharp and nostalgic all wrapped into one. :)

Bah. Have you seen my graphics skills? Besides, I like the current logo; do you still have the font?

I certainly will - you will be able to spell everything wrong and mispronounce and mangle this fine language even better than you can now :P Bear in mind that in American* English everything is backwards: cars drive on the pavement, being pissed is a bad thing, you can see bums walking downthe street and all the beautiful French-derived extra vowels we put in words like "colour" have been thrown away.

* aka "merkin"... a word well worth looking up

Just found it back. It is the "Melmo" font. The current logo is drawn in size 52.
I'll reduce its size. I'd like to add some text around the logo with a simple machine listing, to make it clear what we are talking about (avoid confusing with both Simple Messaging System and due to the fact that the site is incorrectly named "SMS Power" while it cover other systems than SMS).
