Presenting the new Neowin Logo


Recommended Posts

Here's a quick comparison:

Trust me, it's a bigger change than the XP Flag and Vista Flag. ;)

I do like it, but I would not go as far as saying it is a bigger change, as it really is not a huge change at all. Let me explain myself.

You put a tasteful bevel and emboss, mixed together with some other Blending Options thrown in there, my guess is some slight Satin , slight Inner Glow perhaps, and then a drop Shadow?

Then you put a white circle behind it all that also has some Blending Options, (emboss , outer glow, and drop shadow or something similar) and it was done.

It does look nice, yes, and I am not trying to knock it at all, but it truly is not really a change at all, it is simply just more stylized.

Yep... it wasn't the first Neowin logo, though... you all remember this:

When I first saw this new logo I have to say I didn't really like it, but after seeing the resized version, and imagining it on a new design, it's starting to grow on me.

I really like the simple version, very nicely done, but the 3D effects on the main thing look a bit messy, perhaps it would be better without that inner glow?

Overall, good job FlishFun, I'm sure it'll look great on the new design, and I'm looking forward to seeing it :)

wouldnt it be better of the "N" was beveled rather than the shapes around it? (is beveled the right word, but you get what i mean)

@mercuryx013 - It will be similar to what we use currently for the Lite theme, just tweaked so it fits the current mockup's themeing... like so:

That looks about a thousand times better than the ones you've got in the first post (and the one that you're using on the front page already).

I prefere the old one. Or please make some new style I HATE this new one, it looks WAY to much like some simple photoshop filters that are getting quite OLD and over used.
