Skippi - here's the larger version you asked for. You'll see it's only half done - I actually started redesigning the tabs also out of personal interest.

Actually saw OCUK are advertising for a web designer - would love to rebrand/reskin the whole site if I could do by contract (think the job listed is a permanent role, so not sure what the pay would be). Think the whole site/forum could be so easily transformed with a dab of html/css/php/photoshopping!

:p

That's the danger with girls who are good with photoshop. You never know if the photo tells the truth. :p

Go for it. Would love to see that implemented.

ok, trying to kill two birds - have sketched a forum version as Skippi asked and have designed as a seasonal variation (halloween) to demonstrate the potential ways to tailor as mentioned to Naster - keeping the brand sharp and doing its job while livening up around it...

Have also kept it as same theme as present (would again suggest maybe a reskin of the forums to fresh things - white's nice, but this shows the art of the possible right now)

This is my winner :cool:
 
lol, looks like katie279 really wants to win that gfx card, and she's going the clever way about it too. Nice work ;)
 
Just wondering what is is about Katie's entry that everyone likes? :p All I see is OVERCLOCKERS in a standard designer font with a... shape.. oddly seated next to the text that reminds me of speedos or something (I can't put my finger on it). :( And thanks for the effort but I could do without the witch flying over and halloweenish background :O

1. Simplicity
2. Basic, clear text
3. The speedo type gauge
4. The positioning of each component
5. How well it fits into the current setup


Looking at it, then looking at my own, it's clear I've tried too hard to get as much into the logo's as possible including unusual fonts, effects etc.
 
The thing is, there are other entries here that are nice and simple, and clearly show the name. But this one lacks any sort of custom curves or edges that give the identity personality/character.

The shape actually just unbalances the logo, and I don't believe it adds anything to the design. Sorry katie :( Just my thoughts.
