Fellow GWers... I-I come with news... GW needs your help!

We have updated the blog layout and we will be doing our best to improve it from now on as well, and that brings me to the topic at hand.

Gaming World needs a new logo and since we admins are such incapable creatures, we'll have to depend on slave labo- I mean, we thought a cool little contest would be fun!

The logo will be used on this blog and possibly on GW's upcoming main site, and we might need it for other GW related pages and projects as well. The logo will be replacing the GWlog text but the logo should either say Gaming World or GW, whichever you prefer. Also notice that we can't promise that the logo will be used on anything else than the blog but if it's good and we think it can be used for other purposes as well, we definitely won't hesitate to use it!

Guidelines:
- It should say GW or Gaming World, not GamingW, not GWlog, not anything else. GW or Gaming World.
- Try to make it fitting for GW. Pay attention to the style and what colors you use. For example, you can use foget or legoman if you have a good idea how to implement them in your logo.
- There's no set size you have to use, the most importart thing is that you won't make it too small. Primarily, it's for this blog so keep that in mind.
- Plagiarism is strictly prohibited.
- You can submit as many logos as you want to.

Submit your logos before 6th March. You can post your logos in this article but if you don't want to post it publicly, you can also mail me ([email protected]) or send me a private message on the forums.

Hopefully you guys enjoy the changes and are willing to give a shot at making us a new logo! Winner gets a premium.

I'm all over this.

Here is a first draft.  I'll be adding more/adding detail to each of these, giving options.  I'm also saving the full resolution original PSD files of each one in case they can be used for anything else.

Rough Sketch. Let me know if you want me to refine it and keep working on it.

Alrighty, very interesting indeed. I think I might make a few logos for you guys. But is there a prize since this is a contest?

Oh yes I see, pretty good idea.

I dont know what else to add or change in that image. Im completely out of ideas. Is there certain characters you guys want to see or anything that could give me a better idea of what to add?

That's up to you, there are some certain characters that you can use (the legoman, the foget), but we won't force you to use anything. But do not use a random anime character because we obviously can't use that as a logo. Also since this is a contest for a logo primarily to be used in the blog, you should make the logo so that it isn't impossible to incorporate in the current site.

big thanx to dragonslayer for sig!

Uh... saying 'Gaming World' in it somewhere might be a good addition? I don't get the nintendo product placement either. It looks more like a signature than a logo.

edit: damn you rami, damn you

I think that it's cool for GW to have a logo, I have some rather expert graphics skills, and this is my suggestion for GW's logo. I hope you like it. I actually come up with this idea before Elighja, just I am slow at posting :( please don't assume I coppied his idea.

Could someone post the lego guy? I'd like to implement him in my logo (is he called the God of Cheese or something?)
