I like the idea of having a cheering (winning) person like in Entry #5 even tho i like the shapes/style of your other submissions better - i wonder how your logos would look like on a bright background (like our interface).
I really like the new logos - do you think you can find a way to make them look good in our interface - regarding color and style (screenshot @ public discussion) ? Because if you are able to do so - i think you could be our "winner" ;p
Thank very much! :) I can show you some variations with gradients, plain colors, dark backgrounds and light backgrounds. I can develop some versions for different purposes of this entry for you, I will work hard until you get completely satisfied with the logo!
Here are some versions of the proposal for you: #124 #125 #126 #127 #128 #129, also a one tone version for photocopies or reductions. Please let me know your comments so I can improve my design.
I have seen that direction of the contest have changed. Are you still interested in my proposal to continue evolving or it is discarded? I appreciate your honesty.
sry for answering that late - had to leave for 1 day and i just returned and saw your new submissions. I really like them and i am happy to review them together with my friends. #244 and #242 might even be the winners.
we are discussing a lot atm. to determine the winner and we prefer you but the only problem we have right now is that the controller looks too "console like" and we are creating software from computers which barely use controller like this.
Could you make a versiob with a mouse instead of a gamepad? But same idea (putting pills into the mouse / computer)
No problem, I can prepare a new proposal with the same concept, with a mouse. At this moment I am not in front of my computer but I will prepare the variation at night when I arrive home.
Only for your consideration, I think that the name is too obvious and dont need a textual graphical representation. I think the first direction of the entries in the contest, in my opinion were more interesting. Thinking about what can achieve with GAMESTEROIDS or giving the idea of the results: "power up", "wins", "enhance power".
When I think about gaming world, all is about about win or lose, but we love to win! and your site can help to achieve this goal. Thats the reason because I used the phoenix, rising from his ashes to win. I think it is a powerful icon, as gamer I really feel represented by the phoenix, but this is only a opinion :)
I have a couple of ideas with the mouse, I will prepare them asap.
Yeah you are right - the controller is a little bit too fancy and complicated but the phoenix (even tho it is a powerfull symbol) doesn't represent anything in the name (apart form the very abstract concept of winning).
Looks okayish but the funnel doesn't really match here ... Could you maybe make a version only showing the pills and adding some kind of disolving effect to make them look digital (close to what the link i sent) in my last comment.
Sure, I have prepared some variations for you: #297 #298 #299 #300 #301 #302 I included a swirl to give the sensation of power, transformation and movement.
