Title: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by Gregor Fran on 03/20/08 at 17:52:21

I think we should have the players submit their own graphics for the top of the page.  A contest if you will.  Alex can give us the dimensions he needs and from there we can play.  I think it is a good idea.

Blah, I asked alex this about a month ago...btw the topic should be in General because no one with Shop skills will be looking here anyways...

I think we should have a temporary logo until the game has been published all over the world and then run a logo contest. It's not easy to make a nice logo if you don't really know what the game is like...

True. It would be easier if there was a larger variety of images from the game on the internet.

Cmon!! We need to get more entries or this won't even count as a competition.

I know some karters have Photoshopping skills!  Like that guy "Wilf" had some cool stuff.  Lets see the pics!

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by IsThatAGoodThing on 04/02/08 at 13:41:42

Hey BOOMER, how about adding in maybe 1 or 2 more characters on the left half of that last one?? I'd totally vote for that so far.  Good job.

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by Boom3r on 04/03/08 at 02:51:35

i tried to add 2 characters. it's pretty colorful now...
anyway take a look

You're doing very well with this, I'd bet your design will make the cut!!!

A couple things now that I wonder about...I think we'd need to ask Alex probably what size/dimensions it should be.

Do you think you could add something on the lower right corner maybe?  Like a character that's in opposition to the other three or something...it seems a little off balance to the left right now

BTW You have great photoshop skills.

^the second one is cool, but i don't like the white at the center, i think you should put a color there too

First one of these is the best.
That one or just the original only mario in one.

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by koopz on 04/04/08 at 08:36:15

i like the second one better with waluigi and wario, instead of just wario and some... graphs?

either that one or the one with just mario.  those look the best so far to me.

Post by IsThatAGoodThing on 04/04/08 at 13:03:39

Yes YES YES YES!!!

Boomer is my hero! These are very very well done sir.  I'd perfer the 2nd one.  Whoever said to delete the white in the middle I would disagree with that. I think that is very near perfect as it stands.
So good!

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by Ostro on 04/04/08 at 13:16:13

yeah, that one is great. but what to add in the white area?
+ I think it'd be cool to type some text into those (almost) white bars at the top and bottom (like on the MKDS page "high scores, stats..." etc., some nice slogan or something ^^)

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by IsThatAGoodThing on 04/04/08 at 13:19:25

Oh, like an imagemap or whatever they call it where the buttons are overlayed on the image?  That'd probably be for whoever puts it up on the site to do.

Added it....but I put it before the earlier ones so the black/reverse color one actually has 1 vote more and the orange one has 1 vote less for later reference.

Post by Gregor Fran on 04/04/08 at 21:43:43

I think it is too soon to put a poll up yet.  Let us others get a chance.  I admit that design is pretty cool, but hey, the site wont be up for months.  Other people use photoshop too...  Give us time...

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by oneshotbilly on 04/05/08 at 02:02:01

The first one is honestly sick  :-* but can't we fit the monkey in somewhere?  :-/

It's already been over a month since I started asking a LOT of people on this...if more entries ever come, we can take the clear winner of this poll and pit it against the others in a new one. And btw...I hope it's not actually months till the site is up...doesn't the game come out in a week in UK?

This one still needs the text players' page on it somewhere

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by IsThatAGoodThing on 04/05/08 at 11:47:28

Ok, first poll closed and the winner of round 1 is
http://img-up.net/img/mkwiibannendsFv.jpg

Any entries submitted from now on will be added to a new poll, including this one and all future ones.  Keep those photoshop skills coming!!!

(The results of poll 1 were: 21 votes on this one, 1 vote on Etch's, and 3 votes between the older versions of Boomer's work.  The lead was insurmountable.)

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by King Clark on 04/06/08 at 03:11:42

There is so much hate for the monkey. It didnt even get a chance. This is discrimination.

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by Ostro on 04/06/08 at 03:56:11

http://img-up.net/img/mkwiibannendsFv.jpg
Besides the text that could be added, what about changing the 4 small circles in a way that they all kinda continue the line of the triangle like the top left one does (or bottom right one, that one looks nice, too)?

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by Boom3r on 04/06/08 at 07:22:22

i copied the text from the mkds page for a beginning.

@Ostro: is that what you meant with the circles?

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by IsThatAGoodThing on 04/06/08 at 08:36:35

Nice revision...seems we're all just working to perfect this one instead of making our own...maybe there won't be any more entries...

Anyone with photoshop skills should probably have a go at making one though!!


BOOMER, I think you should take away the URL on the top box and put MK Wii Players' Page there, then center those other words on the bottom.  The URL doesn't really need to be there, I don't think.

Any words from Mark or Alex about the Players Page and when it's going up?

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by Ostro on 04/06/08 at 11:09:54

Looks great and yes, that's the way I thought of.
I don't know if it's a lot of work but could you try doing it the other way round now, too? Just turn the circles 180°.
If it's not too much of crazy gfx work I'd love to see those 2 versions and compare them.
Looks totally perfect to me now.

Title: Re: Wii Page Logo Contest
Post by Boom3r on 04/06/08 at 11:36:30

no it's not too much work ;)
i would prefer the first one

i need the dimensions cause i probably have to remake some parts

Post by IsThatAGoodThing on 04/08/08 at 13:41:37

I'd say you can probably just use the MKDD dimensions for now....doesn't seem like any official word is coming...also you should consider making a smaller version like those 5 across the top of the screen.
