New logo contest

[Thovex]

Remove the sword and fire (so the basic 6 designs) and i love it as a logo. Logo should be simple like that, and i love the trowing axe in the hat.
Most of the other designs here are not logo's, they are way to detailed for a logo.

Still got em

Like thovex's so far, but like said dont make it too fancy.

This.

But people always want to see a lot of flashy stuff...even though a logo needs to be designed to work black/white or color, small or big, alone or with all kinds of shit around it.
A logo is carefully designed typography (font choice, spacing, scaling, etc) and iconographic imagery which usually embodies the entire subject in one concise and simple image. 

Here are some examples of "logos"

  ** Only reason I say this is just for people to keep it in mind when designing...because we have a lot of COOL stuff...but as has been mentioned - most are not logos in their current state and would not work across the platforms that cRPG needs to use them.

Then again cRPG isn't a company.

That is true for company logo's. However, video game/movie title logo's are often more flashy which was what they were asking for, I think.

Do we really know that, DO WE REALLY

I think people are confusing company logos with stylish awesome game logos.

[Elindor]

You got me a bit wrong Thovex....companies of course have more plain logos, and games might have more complex ones, but still some of these wouldn't work.

Look at the size of the cRPG logo on the website....does the logo in question work there at that scale?  That is what needs to be thought about.  Does it work in black or white?  Etc....

Anyhow here's a version of the banner one simplified for other uses:

This is a problem with lack of instructions. I don't see why they would change the tiny bannerlike logo that says "cRPG beta". It looks great to me and anything flashier, as you say, would only lead to bad quality due to the size.

A more simplistic logo if that's what's required:

I can see a C an R, a P, and a G, but no, a none crpg player wouldn't be able to see anything.

Well it's a logo, you don't have to know what's this mean.
