Logo Contest

[Rogean]

Lets have a mini logo contest. Design a new logo for the top left of the forums. Must be roughly the same size as the vbulletin one. Doesn't have to include the little white bump since without it in the picture the line will just stay straight.

Text the same:
"Project 1999"
"Classic Everquest"

No pictures from EQ, legal matter. Nilborg and I will decide which, if any, to use! Reward undecided.

Post submitions as replies in this thread. Begin!

Ya forgot the Classic Everquest part.

Speaking of, Couldn't the use of Everquest in general bring up legal questions without the TM after it? o_O

This gonna be sweet..... in the WORKS...

[tristantio]

Attached.

I uploaded the 600 width png file I made (better resolution for resizing obviously).

I also have a 209x85 jpg, however I don't want to clutter the board so resize and sample yourself if you want to use it. :)

[tristantio]

Another take on it, slightly less web2.0'ish.

[skorge]

Ill design something...will work on it tomorrow.

[Akayus]

Here's my contribution. :p I wanted to make it look somewhat like the classic logo. I also made versions with the white bump if that's preferable. I created it larger & reduced it to 209x85 pixels.

[Xadion]

Here is mine!

[Chanus]

I vote Akayus.

[Versus]

I vote Akayus.

Same, and I even contributed ;/

[freakyuno]

Same, and I even contributed ;/

Defiantly a good clean look.

[guineapig]

I also think Akayus has the best looking one so far.
Reminds me of EQ without even reading the words.
Simple, clean, professional looking.

[Nedala]

+1 for Akayus, very good :)

[skorge]

http://www.joelrozier.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/p99-logo-original.png

I found a similar looking classic type EQ font...and just went with it, keep it simple as you can't really fit a whole lot in the logo except well for the logo

http://www.joelrozier.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/logo.jpg

[Omnimorph]

I think akyrus's needs a semitransparent picture behind it... nice font, but too plain.

[FatMagic]

+1 Akayus - excellent logo
The simplicity and plainness of it helps keep that "classic" look & feel that P99 is.

[Adym]

Shouldn't there be a capital Q in EverQuest?

[Versus]

I see a winner has been declared? lol

[Rogean]

I see a winner has been declared? lol

Where?

[stonebeard22]

I vote Akayus as well. Does have a really nice clean look to it.

[skorge]

Here's another one...

[Versus]

I doubt it, probably just trying it out, although it is pretty sleek.

[Ravhin]

Honestly both the mainpage and forums would look better with the whole background white (get rid of the gray), unless you are going to include some of the white in the logo.

[Kay]

Here's my contribution. :p I wanted to make it look somewhat like the classic logo. I also made versions with the white bump if that's preferable. I created it larger & reduced it to 209x85 pixels.

Awesome job, I love it.

[skorge]

Ive done like 3-4 different designs now...that would normally be $100, lol. I'm hookin P99 up!

[Queladen]

I like skorge's second one best personally.

[Akayus]

Oh so the contest is over? Just noticed that. I will stop designin shit then, lol
I don't think its over by any means, and I'm enjoying seeing all the different designs. Keep going. I may do another one tonight for fun. :D

HTML to embed both images to have the lighter one appear when mouse-overred (have to host other two images):

*NOTE* add a "<" before img and a ">" after / in order for link to be complete. I had to remove them so it would show up

Skorge is throwin out some sick ideas, i like the one with all the races

[Saskrotch]

Great designs on these, makes me want to try my hand at another. I guess I should get into more detail.

[Razdeline]

Learning how to use Photoshop is really rewarding. People make a lot of money screwing around on it.

[tristantio]

I prefer Gimp over Photoshop as some of the ScriptFu filters are really nice.

I think if you took akayus project 1999 logo and place it on this one it would be a sure winner.

[Xevin]

I made this a while ago. Enjoy. The one with the sword is a tall version. It's for business cards and CD labels, but it's too tall for a website IMO.

[ryuut1]

i like the one with the poopsock

[Akayus]

Lot of good contributions here.

Finally got around to working on this. Added screens & made a few adjustments. Not sure which version I like, or if in-game screens are even allowed, but what the heck! :p

Holy god, removed adblock temporarily and it's like another world. It's been so long since I've seen internet advertisements. Apologies!

Fat drop shadows? Faux gold? LENS FLARES?!?!? This really is 1999, isn't it?

If you want to get really '99, someone needs to bust out WordArt from Word '97.

[FatMagic]

Mine is made with WordArt and MS Paint. I don't believe I used any wordart features that that didn't exist in word '97... has it even changed since then? MSPaint sure hasn't...

Awesome :)

[Magonian]

If your letters were of the gold colored type and style of the posted logo, think thats al's... it would kick ass, love the NPC's :D

Agreed +1

The current one on the forum is best in my mind, but if you do what Mag said...

[skorge]

Thx, but I don't think they want any images from the game, including in-game ones...I made this last logo here...looks the slickest, IMO.

I understand we can't use any Sony trademarked images...but say if we had a oldschool or custom chat window that had differant sized fonts ect. that just said something to the effect of

A Classic Everquest Server
You have gotten better at MMORPG's (201)!

[Azureblaze]

Akayus +1 Current version that's already in use is best imo

[Grizzled]

we are in kunark era now. Should classic be replaced with kunark theme? Maybe its just me, but saying classic EQ means original box only. Just my 2cp.

[Jagmarr]

i must say i like the one that is on the website now... but the Q in EverQuest needs to be capitalized.. i believe i have an artistic eye and i am also quite a perfectionist.. other than that it looks perfect ;)

[Akayus]

Well, I haven't been around since being hit with the unwavering ban stick, but I noticed a couple of people asked for this, so here's the logo with the capital 'Q'. I originally left it exactly as Rogean quoted it in the initial post, but perhaps this is better.

[Ennoia]

What no one caught on to was there's thousands of words the exact same color as the background splattered across the image (which is how you get around that pesky Google search thing).

Also, another way to get more Google hits for the site is to plug it into Google yourself and get to the site that way, rather than typing in the URL.

[SyanideGas]

Alot of these are badass! Nice guys.

[Dantes]

That hasn't worked for 10 years. I guess they REALLY are trying to be classic here if they are using SEO tricks from 1999.

[Klyre]

I will throw this one into the pot.

So I was thinking... maybe, since my logo has been on the website for over a year now, I could have my account un-banned. You know, as sort of a reward type thing?

Hey, it's worth a shot! :p
