Title: Logo - Banner and Co
Post by: yarooze on Mon 02/07/2007 01:38:11
Hi!

I'm working on the logo/banner for my game. It isn't ready and I need some critic.
What do you think about the font?
Can you read it?

I love the look of it, but it's very hard to read. Style's great though!

At first, I had a hard time distinguishing the Q. I finally realized it was lowercase, but something about that Q still doesn't look right.

Other than that, it's a great logo!

Quick messy edit. Like TerranRich said, the q isn't right. Hows this?

Thanx pals!  ;)

Is there only the problem with "Q"?

Since I'm not a native english speaker, it is very difficult for me to see, if it is possible to read this text...  :-[

I'll try to remake the logo...

A quick attempt by me. A slighty different angle.

I see LimpingFish beat me to the chase with a simular idea.
But I tried to keep it as close to your style as possible.

So here it goes:

Tried to make all the letters more readable and of simular weight!

The Q definitely needs to be uppercase, otherwise it's near impossible to read.

Better?  ???

The Q is better, but now the N looks a little like a H. Overall though, it has better balance. Just tweak the N a little, and it will look fine.

I agree, but you seem to have acquired a smudge that needs to be dealt with, it looked better with cleaner edges.

The Q is definitely much better. So is the T.

But unless it's called HecroQuest, that N needs fixing.

Hmmm...finally someone who shares my necrophagic...necrophilic...?...tendencies...mmmmm... ;D

Yes, yes, just change the H back to an N, clean up the edges some...maybe make it a bit sharper...and it will be just fine.

I read that as "HeroQuest" at first, and had an urge to play Quest for Glory ;)

Yeah, what others said, fix the N, and otherwise it looks perfect!

Ok, I'll try once more...  ;)

It is called "necromancy".  ;) I hope, we prefer live girls...  ::)

At all this thread is not about dead girls, but about this game:

Yes but you wouldn't say "necromancy tendencies". It's not the proper form of the word. In any case...Dictionary.com registers necrophilic as a word, but not necrophagic so the latter is probably wrong. I just prefer the term necrophage over necrophiliac (which both mean the same thing). Actually...now I'm not even sure where I came up with "necrophage". There's necrophile and necrophiliac...but I can't seem to find any record of where I came up with necrophage. I was probably just trying to make myself sound more magical by making it rhyme with mage.

Anyway, enough linguistics. Yes, I prefer live girls...but is it really so wrong if I find the dead ones just as beautiful?....covered in fresh blood. :o

Hmmm....inside jokes are fun.

Wouldn't it be "necrophile"? Or is too close to "pedophile/paedophile"?

Either way, what I said above. :P
Title: Re: Logo - Banner and Co
Post by: Hudders on Thu 05/07/2007 09:58:13
Necromantic tendencies, surely?
Title: Re: Logo - Banner and Co
Post by: yarooze on Sat 07/07/2007 17:47:20
I've changed the "N".
Better?

Hmm, it still looks more H-esque to me, If I buy HecroQuest.com how much will you pay me for it?

Necrophallic should be the word...
ewww, sorry. :D
