Presenting the new Neowin Logo


Recommended Posts

For us neowin elders you have to understand how long we've (I've) waited for Neowin 4.

I know its been a long time coming. I'm so proud of the job the neowin team is doing...

PS. Thanks for 4 great years Neowin. :) https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=358038

It seems like this topic is turning into "Post your ideas for the new Neowin logo" when it really shouldn't. While your input is, I am quite sure, greatly appreciated, this topic is to discuss Flishfun's new logo, which is "set in stone" so to say, and is destined for Neowin 4, whether Timan or n30w1n's logo is better is heresay :).

OK, I just looked at this topic as a means to suggest improvements (or other similar designs), as otherwise there seems little advantage to unveiling it early.

I don't mean to offend FlishFun but I believe some of the other designs (namely Timan's and n30w1n's) are better and I would hope that, even now at this late stage, these other designs would be considered as possible replacements. Still, I will respect whatever design is chosen... I'm just voicing my opinion.

NO, they aren't better. They both look nice individually, but wouldn't fit AT ALL with the overall look of Neowin 4. This is the point we have been trying to get across the entire thread.

Exactly, I couldn't agree more. If you guys aren't looking for our suggestions, then who cares what it looks like, just get it done and put it up. No need to bother with this topic. The only reason that could be given for a thread like this is to tease. :no:

Anyway, I think this thread was destined for disaster from the start, and if that couldn't have been anticipated before posting it, then... yeah I dunno. It was a useless topic, that could only possibly cause arguments. Don't tease people, and then yell back at them when they give suggestions. :rolleyes:

It's no different than software companies releasing 'teasers' or screenshots of new games. They aren't looking for suggestions, just giving people something to look forward to.

NO, they aren't better.? They both look nice individually, but wouldn't fit AT ALL with the overall look of Neowin 4.? This is the point we have been trying to get across the entire thread.

How can you say they aren't better? Better is an opinion. I believe they look more pleasing to the eye, which is the point of logos, hence my belief that they are better.

What I'm interpreting from your statement is that the "worse" logo by flish goes with the site really well, which to me means that if a "bad" logo goes with a site well then maybe the overall design is "bad" as well.

I am in no way hating on or insulting anyone here. I am sure I will offend some, as peoples personal work and taste is involved, but its not my intention. Im just throwing in my 2 cents, which seems to be in line with at least a few other members.

edit: by "bad" and "worse" all I mean is in my opinion, comparing them to neow1ns.

lol... I think you're asking for trouble. :wacko:

I have a feeling that this thread will be shut if it continues like this, though I am intruiged as to how n30w1n's design wouldn't fit in as design wise it has a near identical layout/theme to FlishFun's. I'm dropping this now, as I'm really just knitpicking - however, would it be possible to have some of the logos contributed here as alternative themes that we can select?

Nobody likes to have their hard work criticized. Many people can take it very personally and get defensive, resentful and hold a grudge.

We should all know better than to give in to the urge to do so.

The proper response is "Thank you ma'am, may I have another"

Errr - wait - I mean "That's nice, dear"

Yeah - that's it.

It's like when a chick goes "Does this dress make me look fat"?

It's just not a place you want to go, you know what I'm saying?

:woot:

(just pokin' fun, fellas. all meant in a positive spirit)

Yeah, I'm gonna have to second closing the thread too. I don't like the way a lot of the staff is dealing with this, and the reactions from the users isn't very good.

Chad, don't tell people that their work is NOT better, or else you're just as bad as people saying the original is bad. No one's work is bad, it just may not look best to someone. They may not fit into the theme as a whole, but guess what, the majority of the people here, haven't seen the full theme. All the more reason that this thread is useless and can do nothing but cause problems.

Everyone just needs to calm down and take a step back.

art is never bad

for the new icon or wahtever, it hink it looks really great. idunno how it could be bad.

its just for other people, the design could not be everyones best choice. its like pizza, not everyone likes anchovis or however you spell it, but somepeople LOVE it. it goes same with the design, so its best not to say mean things man and perhaps maybe just give suggestions that yo umay think could improve it.

Actually, thinking about it, I think it would be good if n30w1n's logo was used for the final design... it looks very similar to FlishFun's, yet looks much more professional and is certainly more pleasant to look at. Design wise it shouldn't be too hard to incorporate as it is virtually the same in terms of design. Afterall, we should make use of the talent in the community.

Any chance of that happening?

i like how this has turned into a suggest logo replacements thread when nobody has seen the actual neowin design. Way to be blind guys :sleep:

move along. Logo set in stone.

I read the first 40 posts and everyone seems to like it :huh: I may be missing something sorry, but I dont see what all the hype is about it doesnt actually look all that great in my veiw, I do appreciate and respect that the FlishFun dude or whatever is putting in his own time to create this etc. "However all this hardwork" :s ? I mean honestly that looks like a vector with a blue color overlay and bevel and emboss filters applied making it around a 10 minute job maximum.

And actually I think I like the old one better :blink:

Way to be blind guys  :sleep:

I know we haven't seen the new design, I was just commenting that the suggested logos are very low quality and the bevel looks all out of focus and low resolution, whereas other logos contributed keep the theme but improve upon it (imo).

And actually I think I like the old one better :blink:

As do I, but I'm sure that's because we haven't seen the new design.

    • Nice. September/October GA?! I'll keep following it, but won't install any preview or beta versions.
    • Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.4 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.4 changelog: Adds fallback fonts so every language and symbol displays correctly Improves autosave and session recovery stability Improves region navigation and display Fixes a crash when the level meter is used on displays with a scaling greater than 200% Fixes memory corruption when using the silence selection tools Fixes crashes when closing a file while effects are still being processed Fixes a freeze when applying effects to many files at once (macOS) Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows Fixes invalid file names when exporting regions whose label is used as the file name Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
