DarkCircuit Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 This post has turned into the ugliest thing Ive ever seen. It's completely lost focus, and honestly ... Whatever moderator said that it was not the intent of NeoWin to post the new logo for feedback, has become retarded in my book. Either thats a load of bull squeeze, or someones just letting this thread get outa contrl. and way off topic. Wtf is the point of this thread anyway? :no: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Funny that, it was my intention to post the same thing you did. With the difference being I didn't have to be so condescending to members whilst doing it... 586374746[/snapback] I wasn't being condescending at all. People misinterpreted what I posted.

zhangm Supervisor Posted August 14, 2005 Supervisor Share Posted August 14, 2005 I think everyone needs to take a deep breath and spend less time bitching and more time appreciating the fact that Neowin is getting served to them free, practically on a silver platter. I for one, refuse to jump on the Judging Train till I see the new layout implemented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry Grey Member Posted August 14, 2005 Member Share Posted August 14, 2005 Okay everyone... I know you've been very anxious for the upcoming Neowin 4, and it's been a lot of hard work on all of us. Anyway, as a present for your patience, here is a sneak peak at the official new Neowin Logo:All this hard work we've put into the development is planning to go site wide by October 1st (if not before) to celebrate Neowin's 5th anniversary. Enjoy!! For those who like the other themes, here it is in all the theme colors: 586365742[/snapback] I can't see the images? :wacko: :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keito Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 So I've just finished reading the whole thread right now, and I have to say that I agree with lots of people on the dissapointment and the fact that it just doesn't look as good as the current logo. Furthermore I also agree with StevoFC and DarkCircuit. I just think members should be able to judge what looks good as well, as they're going to be people who use the site regularly. I for one know that I'm struggling when the site does have the same bevelled / embossed look as the logo... It always reminds me of webdesign back in 1998, when the bevel and emboss filters where just invented. It's overused and just doesn't look that good (anymore - back in the day it was like WHOA! 3D! - I do get that). Another thing I wanted to say, if yu're showing us the final logo... and there's like 80% of the people NOT-liking it, though you still keep telling us it looks great with the new layout. Why not give us a sneak-peak of that too, so you guys won't have to comply with our whining, as you say. I also have to say, the logo looks better when scaled down, so I can only hope that happens when the new layout goes online, if it stays this big and the layout matches it with bigness and that look... well, then I better hope there'll be a classic version or a minimal one... :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theyarecomingforyou Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Flish said that we need to see it as an overall design. As a designer I agree but I am afraid that his meaning was like "it blends perfectly because the new version its full of bevels" :no: 586373501[/snapback] Yes, that was very much my concern. I wasn't being condescending at all. People misinterpreted what I posted. 586374819[/snapback] It did come across as condescending, whereas Dazzla's replies seemed more respectful of the community.

Wannes Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 What do you mean... are you talking about the hex code of the actual midnight color? 586367374[/snapback] Yep that's what I meant, just repainted my motorbike so i am still using those terms.

bangbang023 Veteran Posted August 14, 2005 Veteran Share Posted August 14, 2005 I was very skeptical about the logo, but after getting a very small peak at what's to come and how it fits in, I can assure you this logo is perfect for the job. Neowin's about to get even sexier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshalus Veteran Posted August 14, 2005 Veteran Share Posted August 14, 2005 At first, I hated the new logo. I just didn't say anything about it. Then I got a sneek peak, and about **** my pants. It's just what the doctor ordered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramble Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 I, for one, like it. Nice and simple, too much gloss ruins a picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bastawhiz Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 It looks really nice! The only thing I would suggest is doing a manual drop shadow for the N. That way, you won't get two points, as if the letter was floating. The manual method makes it look as if it is fused to the surface rather than in mid-air. Ohter than that, good work! Reminds me of the N logo from the Nautilus in 20000 leagues under the sea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
