First of all i added some colour to the logo. Also i added a darkish gradient to the background to make it the logo seem that it is dimly lit as it is away from the main imagery. I kept with the rounded rectangle shape such that it can be related to the original logo. The graffiti-like central "GTM" was to make it more urban and slightly messy as robotic combat has this kind of environment. It overlaps the rounded rectangle to show the forum isn't too formal and we do hav fun and laughs (lol). I placed the actual name at the bottom for completeness. The "GTM" in the middle let's newcomers now that gametechmods is normal abbreviated.

May develop this further such that there are more technological aspects to it.

You do realize that is one of the most famous RA2 bots, right?

Sentinel would probably be the most iconic and famous robot of Ra2 if anything, not that ugly ass monstrosity of a thing in that logo TheBadger made.

Yeah I can see that I'm going to be branded as a terrible Absolute Chaos hater, so let me just say that I never said AC was a bad fighter, just that it looked ugly and unrealistic - things to consider when we're trying to attract new users.

My only constructive criticism advice thing is that the bottom of the T should be a bit more filled out, so it has some distinction from the left portion of the M as a separate letter. Other than that its really well done.

OK, You guys can go here.... http://robotcombatgames.com/Forum/index.php

And make a logo for the dark theme, and the SMF default theme as that is the new dark theme when the forum gets upgraded.

I will make a vote and best one will get used.

OK, there is a size limit of 400 wide 80 tall

its made this place really feel like the home to RA2 since..

This is the only post that actually made sense.

The logo is fine and all, just, it looks a little stretched, as the edges are a bit blurry.
And MAYBE we could replace the O with a gear...
.....
I would re-make the logo, but that would defeat the purpose of everyone else getting a chance to do so.
Plus, me and Joe are lazy and LIKE the way the current logo looks. The nostalgia is what makes it wonderful.

Since that is a direct copy of the original RobotArena2 logo......it WILL stay!!!!!

You guys can make one for the other 2 themes on the link above.

No love for my creation?

ACAMS · « **Reply #29 on:** July 11, 2011, 09:42:28 PM »

it will be voted on....now go make one for the default SMF theme.

HurricaneAndrew · « **Reply #30 on:** July 11, 2011, 10:01:03 PM »

Can I just give you my entrants here? I don't want to have to make another forum account as it will take ages with my connection.

Randa · « **Reply #31 on:** July 11, 2011, 10:24:27 PM »

This seems like fun, maybe I'll try to make one.
btw, is there gonna be some sort of deadline? so I'll know when to stop procrastinating? :P

ACAMS · « **Reply #32 on:** July 11, 2011, 10:31:19 PM »

But what if I "fixed it up" for you?

Code: [Select]

That is nice, BUT the other is FROM THE ORIGINAL FORUM.....not cool to change what is old and original....it would be like making a 53 vette look like a 2011 vette

*Wakes up*

Hey, let's look on GTM, see what's happening.

*Look on this thread*

Wow, never though it to become official. I could enter my 1st one, but it isn't going to win. Dragon's looks good, fits with the theme.
