Create a Logo Showcase, Winner Announced Soon [UPDATED]

Kenzi September 7 2008 2:49 pm 80 Comments

**UPDATED** All of the logos I believe are now added. One person has 2 entries showing, I’m sure you guys can figure out who. VOTE!

First of all, I apologize for the load times that will be seen in this post…there is going to be a ton of logos. I will be saving this thread every time I add 10 logos so check back. Once completed I will post a poll just to get an idea of the majority favorite (the poll will NOT determine the winner). Check back, adding more now!

Also note: If you submitted more than one I am only posting my favorite. Also, if the file size is just way too big I’m not even going to bother. Common sense should have told you that a 9mb logo just wouldn’t work.

1.) 2.) 

3.) 4.)

5.) 6.)

7.) 8.)

9.) 10.)

11.) 12.)

13.) 14.)

15.) 16.)

21.) 22.)

23.) 24.)

27.) 28.)

29.) 30.)

31.) 32.)

33.) 34.)

35.) 36.)

37.) 38.)

39.) 40.)

41.) 42.)

    29 and 6 are hawt.

  • ChaosHaven said:

    13 as non-animated and 29 as animated for me, 6 is a bit too much “Christmas style” =P

  • Samji Wahala said:

    6 and 29 hands down…

  • Elm said:

    i like number 6, others are ugly

  • Elm said:

    well ok 13 is ok too :P

  • Dave Chaos said:

    Loving 6 and 20

  • Requiem said:

    5,15 and 37 are my favorites so far. With a toss up between 37 and 5 for the top one.

  • sc said:

    13 and 14 are best

  • Arekkusu said:

    No.6 Ftw

    x]

  • Dave said:

    13 ftw, looks the most pro

  • Jordan said:

    13 and 14 so far. they have simple readable text that is attractive and they fit in with the overall style.

  • Deadly Panda said:

    So far 13 is my favorite. Only downside is that it isn’t animated. Just slap a little glow effect on it and it would dominate.

  • cronJ said:

    13 is the best. A logo should not be animated. NoScript blocks Flash.

  • JC said:

    You gotta be able to picture the logo up top where it’s actually going to sit. I like 10, 13 and 17.

  • Anon said:

    i’m sold by 13 14 too

  • MaV of Brill said:

    29.

  • MaV of Brill said:

    non animated: 13.

    but whatever, 13 and 29 are the best of their kind.

  • Zeke said:

    I tip my hat to whomever did 13, you kicked my ass. (12)

    What you did is similar to what I had been wanting to do, but I couldn’t get the ice to look right…

  • Takari said:

    6 for animated
    13 for non animated

    Grats to both… hands down awesome.

  • Tirithor said:

    6 and 13 imo

  • Jaelyndari said:

    I like 6 & 8 best.

  • Sibilya said:

    Wow, nice work everyone! I really like the animated ones, although it should be still.

    I like 14 the best. :3

  • eddo said:

    #6, but the letters need to be sharper

  • Bubblez said:

    Number 13 and 14 are the cleanest and best looking. I hope one of the two win.

  • Dart Matsuraki said:

    I’m torn between 10, 13, 18 and 20 :-\

  • blblblbl said:

    13, 18, and 33 are the best.

    You can’t have a flash logo or it will be blocked by too many viewers…

  • Gravity said:

    #6 is professional.

  • Izhi said:

    13 a 33 <3

  • Heretic said:

    I don’t care for 6 imo it’s not too special… just a nice background with snow falling and then the runes blurp into the thing and DK.info pops up… I like 5 and 29… if 29 had a better background zamg I’d mail him a card myself, it does have a twinge too long of wait before repeating though.

    5 is pretty cool, I like the background, and I like how the runes break into DK.info that is what makes me nergasm. However I’d have liked to see a better font used, and not have that pinkish purple initial font color…

    but yea if I had to vote on one I’d say 5 since it has a fairly nice background, and it has good animation

  • cowguin said:

    whys it gotta be so small? lame imo

  • Keglen said:

    8 and 16 alll the wayy :)

  • dotspam said:

    12 and 38 .
    As a site logo , the most important part is BRANDING . aka its name to be visible , BIG , not the runes .
    the only decent animated ones are 9 , but the font is kinda bringing it down :) and 6 (but yet again both the runes [and the text for crying out loud.....] are too small ) . Some just feel like they exercised the only skill they know in flash .

    *ahem* Good luck to you all

  • Pixsol said:

    13 all the way just fits the game.

  • Jordan said:

    First, in good design is the use of good fonts, then readability, then lines and flow, after establishing those conditions you can create style and flavor to fit the theme. Only, 13 exemplifies that style. 14 is close but the lines do not match as well (the rune icons need to be spaced so that the text lines up with it). 5 is very tacky and has bad font and bad animation that is too cluttered. 12 and 38 are off center and bad fonts. Flashy is not better. simple elegant and readable is the most attractive historically by design. 18 is OK too because the deviation in font is used cleverly to tie K and g together.

  • Daedal said:

    13. Logo should not be animated, reminds of an advert if something moves in a website :P It also blends well to the background color.

  • Daedal said:

    Also, to add a thing, logo should not be flash. As stated before, noscript prevents flash and some users wouldn’t see a logo at all.

  • Sessi said:

    48 is nice, looks professional, the rest looks like I have build it *lol*

  • Arkstok said:

    yeh 13 is pretty good, but im with 6 all the way, it look cool and have captured everthing about this site, the “cold”, the deathknight, the runes and the northrend in the background, and it look pretty cool.
    dunno if it will see strange as a logo upthere thou

  • Zeno of SoE said:

    Creator of #16 here. I’m really impressed with the quality of work of a lot of these. I knew I’d see some good art, but this stuff is amazing! Good job everyone, and good luck!

  • Anom said:

    errr 29 is probably the worst? has no animation, a naff border… its practically just DKinfo with the 4 runes… way better up there, and how has 48 got the most votes?

  • Anarchron said:

    Haha, i think there is someone cheating the poll xD

  • Zaboomafoo said:

    he probably doesn’t know that “(the poll will NOT determine the winner)” lol

  • Anarchron said:

    I think so. :)

    43 Votes on 28 between the last 10 Minutes is not really inconspicuous.

  • Maku said:

    I have updated mine (28) because of problems with IE and FF not showing transparency properly.

  • CorpSanct said:

    I think theres some really good entries and also some really bad ones. Particularly blizzard’s own runes look like they were taken from that 80’s arcade game space invaders ;)

    Which is the tiebreaker for voting 6 over 48.

    And 28, rigged any votes much?

  • Tetsuoken said:

    Why is 28 second..? It’s awful <_<

  • Radenska said:

    There were some really slick entries in the mix here. I’m enjoying the range of styles.

    Good luck to whomever wins the polls and, furthermore, is chosen for the overall contest!

  • lol said:

    Its second because the poll is rigged.

  • Maku said:

    I don’t know why i have so much votes, I have made it in 5 mins. I have set a little info about this contest in mine IM status message but i don’t think i have so muhc friends o.O

  • Mox911 said:

    Guess I couldn’t get the compression done on mine too well (9), I was going for simple. And I am not sure what is going on with the big white line on the edge… any There are some very talented artists out there. I <3 6, 10, and 13. Good job people.

  • Aggix said:

    48, and 13 cool. Just cool

  • Maku said:

    o.O Is mine logo really that cool? I don’t think so…

  • Tyreana said:

    If it is, the admin will see it ;)

  • Michael said:

    Can we get a finals round on this?

    That way the 500 votes get spread between the top 5 or something?

  • Tyreana said:

    On this? This poll is actually not authentic. I think, the vote has been rigged. No one has mentioned logo 28 in any forumposts, comments and now that’s the secret favourite of the whole community?

    Never…. ;)

  • ecoue said:

    rebooting your rooter will grant you a new chance to vote.. so i dont think this way of choosing the best logo is shit ^^

  • Maku said:

    I don’t get this too. I hope I will not get disqualified because of this ;’<

  • Insane said:

    OMG…If No 28 wins and not 48 I will lose my mind completely…It’s uncompareable…I mean cmon who voted for 28 when 48 was there? (or even 13).

  • Maku said:

    Yeah, 48 is a professional work, and I have made mine 28 in 5-15 minutes with my Flash helpbook on desk… Ofcourse I don’t mean that I don’t want the pre-paid ;>

  • Pixsol said:

    Please let 48 win it just rocks, nice subtle animation and it looks good.

  • Kenzi (author) said:

    I have no clue how the votes got dicked, its not rigged. You are only alllowed to vote once per IP address. So either someone is spoofing IPs or they have a guild or something voting. The poll system tracks the voters IP so I could technically trace them all….but im not gonna bother, because, as already stated, this wont determine the winner. I only ran the poll to see the publics favorite.

  • Derek said:

    Number 6 is very well done, excellent job. I should hire him to do my logo! =D

  • RaBBiT said:

    Mine’s 3;
    It sucks. Haha.
    It’s better than some I guess, though.

  • Radenska said:

    I’m the artist behind number 6, and wanted to respond to Derek who posted just a couple notches above.

    Thanks for the feedback, and if you’re really interested in some logo designs, send me a PM on the forums (my name is the same there) with some details.

    Again, thanks to everyone for participating – it’s been real fun seeing such a vast amount of entries flowing onto this new post. Good luck to all of us!

  • tif said:

    I think the admin should look at the ip range of votes for picture 28… its not even cut out nicely – cant believe someone voted for this – neither anyone left a comment other than its “ugly”…

  • nightmane said:

    5 looks cool. Runes like exploding and, Deathknight.info flashes up with storm :)

  • Urnn said:

    Lots of good entries but my vote is for 48. Oh and the votes for 13 should count for 48 also since they are the same thing the only difference is 48 is animated and 13 isn’t. And the animated version is cooler.

  • Tj-productions said:

    6 13 20 45 and 48 are the 5 winners!!:D(well thats in my opinion :-) )

    Greetz Tj

  • Tj-productions said:

    this is correct 28 is BUTTUGLY

  • Elm said:

    Why the hell is number 28 second? It’s effing ugly xD

    I guess the make got all his friends to vote

  • Anon said:

    yeah 28 seems rigged.

  • Dreadwyn said:

  • Skreeran said:

    48=t3h s3x

  • unknownalias said:

    Why the hell has everyone voted 48.
    20 wins hands down.
    Maybe 15 or 8. Other than that , they are nto really worthy of being a banner.

  • Anon said:

    maybe so, but the webmaster says he gets the final decision u know.. so we can’t really influence him

  • Oak said:

    I feel like some of these look more like website site banners and ads then a logo.
