but nothing beats the picture to the right

Thats left m8...

It looks nice.
Is there some symbolic meaning to it?

The beauty is that it is your choice to see it as the fall of reach, or some s***

I photoshopped it m8.


Should I add text?

I don't like it. There's no theme or overall general image you're trying to get across. I understand the cool PS photoshop logo thing that people have fun with, and I've made them too. However, your color scheme is blue, yellow/orange, with a bit of green and red subtly added. So technically, I don't think you had a plan for color use and placement. Honestly the helmet is incredibly dull in comparison to the generic fire/energy in the background which steal all the attention. Contrast is incredibly important with image creation. Also, the lens flare seems really out of place, even though it is very faded. Assuming it's supposed to be sun glare or something, that side of the helmet should be brightened to accommodate. Similarly, the helmet should have red/blue color reflected on it from the flames/energy. Also, I'd suggest symmetry for this project, something about the diagonal theme looks off.

sry for the txt wall bby just my crit

I do a lot of digital artwork and the occasional 100% PS project for fun. Here's an album cover I made about a week ago if you're looking for inspiration.

Yeah... If there's no symbolic thing going on... I have no idea what is. All I see is a bunch of pretty colors.

Retard, it's photoshopped

Here's original image: (no watermark)

EDIT:YOUR A COLOSSAL RETARTED A$$ B!tch

what does "it's photoshopped" have to do with the fact that there's a watermark on the image? If it's photoshopped then that means it's even easier to remove the watermark with something like the clone stamp.

jesus you're ornery, go pet a dog or something

he added it himself, lol

This looks more to me like some googled .png images strapped together in photoshop.

To be blunt everything ITT looks terrible from a graphic design standpoint (sorry xnx, even yours).

What you want in a logo is for it to be memorable and distinctive. In general, you want it to be as simple as possible, 'cause then it's easier to identify it. I'd type out more but you guys are so far off I'd have to write an entire essay so just do some googling.

The problem is that OP and xnx are trying to make logos but not using design philosophy for logos, and approaching the project like you would a normal image.

Anyway if this is the art show-off thread here's something I drew a while ago that would make a terrible logo.

I's just for a profile pic, so i think it's fine.

This thread needs more lens flares and mt. dew promos

This exactly what i need. Thank you.

Profile pic for a channel though, so it's about branding and catching customers. Profile pic for halomaps or whatever is different.

any time, i'm here for you friend

Something I made for clan match. Everything is mine except for the BG grungish texture which I either bought from cg textures or VC.

20 hours in photoshop
do not steal!!!!!!

Ehr, well, even though I said it was for an album cover, it wasn't actually meant to be a logo, but just something I had fun creating in photoshop. To give context to the situation I made an awful dubstep remix of a song for my friend who has an elitist taste in music (for christmas) and tried to make a typically EDM image for the video on YouTube. I couldn't draw anything because my stylus pen was broken so I just created it using different images pulled from google. I look at it more as artwork rather than a memorable logo, considering it was never meant to actually be "published" for mad $$$.

10/10
Would use.

Oh! Banshee, make me channel art.Will pay 69$

sorry about that, was doing this late at night and kinda rushed, but anyways yea, to the left

You haven't been here long enough to know that this forum's very foundation consists of nothing but memes, too many posts with no memes and the forum could collapse!
