Which Logo set do you like??

[Jarval]

The new logos look great, much prettier than the old, so I've voted for them. There is another logo I think we could use, which is one for D20 Modern.

Anyone else feel like they've wandered into ENWorld v3.5? Changes for the sake of changes?

The new icons are very pretty, but the old icons are very clear and easy to read on a scan down the subject list. They may be bright and gawdy, but I don't have to spend several seconds figuring out what the heck they say.

No, just several seconds wandering what the acronyms are for.

The last problem I can see now, is how incredebly small the FR logo is.

Is that what the tag between "Meta" and "PC Games" is? I'm familiar with the name but not the logo, and never would have figured that out.

The new tags look good, but that one and "Lord of the Rings" are kind of tough to read.

As a set, they look good.

I do think the FR one needs reworking, and some of the others could use a tweak for legibility, but they're distinct enough that people will begin to recognize them on sight instead of having to re-read them every time. Good job, site-decorating-monkey gawd.

Personally, I feel that it's better to use a simple (but effective) solution as opposed to a more complex one. IMO, the old ones, while not as pretty as the new ones, are easier to handle. They take up less space, and aren't graphically complex. However, that's just my opinion, and by the looks of things, it's not one shared by everyone else.
Good job on them, Morris. Just not the sort of thing I'd like to look at when I come to a board like this one.
Magius out.

Same here

I really like the "News" one.

The 3e, 3.5 and forgotten Realms are all really hard to read; that's the consequence of trying to squeeze down the logo. It would be neat of 3e and 3.5 are realy clear, just because we'll see them so often!

What is the "Items" tag for? I'm not sure how or why that would be used.

EDIT - I see a Dungeon tag, but not a Dragon. Should we simplify to a Paizo tag instead?

Um, Pkitty, they're right next to each other. Have been since the first time I checked it out this morning. You might want to shift the eyepatch onto the blind eye and off the good one.

Aesthetically I like the simple white-on-black of the current OOC, News, Movies, and similar icons best.

After that, I would definitely pick yours over the current set, though I think I'd like to see a few of the more common ones (OT, 3.0, and 3.5 especially) be a tad more simplistic, since we'll be seeing them more often. I really don't like to have too much visual activity on something like a message board, but that's a personal opinion. Like I said, given my choice all the icons would be white on black.

Now, the trick is getting people to use the icons...

 

[Morrus]

Michael, your topic icons are officially infinitely more pretty than mine. Great job!

 

[talinthas]

Still though, where are the dragonlance and greyhawk buttons? why does mutants and masterminds or call of cthulu have one?

Your icons are much better than the old ones, but incredibly busy.
