What Japo said

I can possibly manage a better version, I'll certainly look into it.

Will just require a little time.

I won't waste this opportunity
This is a work in progress, I can improve it adding the text and other nice things. Just tell me if you like it.

IMPORTANT: Invader has been done pixel by pixel from beginning taking inspiration by old site design, so don't say "ehy this is the old logo" or I'll stab you with a pen

Concept

Another suggestion into the bucket: what about a reference to a game? It's copyrighted content... just like the files we offer for download. :P

For example what would you think about this image



edited by replacing the hourglass with the Invader (or whatever symbol that will represent AB), and adding the text:

"BEHOLD!" (in the black void below the arch)
"abandonia.com" (below the image)

Hi res is not an issue (just resize), and pixelized pixel art nowadays is fashionable again (at least where I live).

Ok, beta version:



I'm not fully convinced by the text and some people said the picture is too much overdone.
I can prepare a less detailed version, but I won't probably change the style since I like it

It's nice, but I don't think this could be easily appreciated in a t-shirt. It looks better for a banner or something like that.

Heyas Guys,

I'm interested in giving this a go. I don't really work on Logo/T-Shirt design so it'll be a challenge for me. Always a good thing.

Could I get some more information, on what you actually need?

---
---

Some helpful information, would be:

Image Dimensions (Pixels,inches,etc)

Colour Mode

Colour Restrictions (Amount of colours, for instance - thinking of printing costs mainly)


Lastly, from what I understand you are asking for a Logo, or 'graphic' as opposed to a Whole T-Shirt design.

So I should aim to design say an 'Emblem' or some such that captures the spirit of Abandonia, and classic gaming?

---

Sounds like an interesting contest, and I am glad to see the community playing a role in the 'image' of site merchandise.

Good job Titan/Studentis and whoever else is to thank for making that work.
