What would go good with it if you added a little lake/steam at the bottom to represent the "bay"

Though logos should really be kept as simple as possible to avoid being too "busy", i think adding water turned out okay too

I really like this. How about making the circle around the logo thinner and maybe silver to contrast with the quaggan. More like a badge visually. It would make it feel less flat. Maybe even make it oval and not as round as this.

It was a quick change so here we go! But, with the silver, it looks more like a picture than a logo. Logos/icons are better "flat" as it is meant to be more memorable, iconic, simple, clean, less colors, not busy etc. Most logos will go with monochromatic or two colors etc. Firefox is orange and blue, Google favicon is just blue and white, guild wars 2 logo red and white, facebook blue and white f, twitter a blue green bird or blue green lettering, etc

I think the circle is also more appropriate for a logo/icon, also for usage purposes, we want it to fit into a square ratio as an avatar, browser favicon, etcI personally think the blue version is better, and represents the ehmry water theme better

Hmm... I get what you mean, but in the case of server logo we probably won't be making any browsers or merchandise. ;P

Anyways, I agree that the grayish circle looks worse. But I still would like to make the blue version feel stronger, more solid. Maybe making the circle a bit thinner and adding shadow on the outside and inside of it would give more dynamic look to it.

Also I think for the browser icon just a quaggan would be enough - good visibility and easy to match up with the full version.


I just really want it to be as strong as it is cute. :)

Hmm, maybe try the same black color for the ring as the castle in back? Definitely like the grey better than the blue for the ring.

And LOVE the sky/water

Edit: OH! Maybe try red for the ring too? then you'd have all the wvw colors in there ;)

I think you can even make it white and glossy like Crystal Desert. I keep returning to their logo because it's just so right on th money. It's a perfect representation of their server name with a cool design on top.


Ummm... Not that Reina is not talented. <3 ^_^

I'm late to the party, but I just wanted to say that I misread the thread title as "Lego Experimenting" and now feel this thread needs more of that. :(

I keep looking into it's eye and find it really hard to peel away.
As I keep staring, I hear a very deep un-quaggan like voice humming, "Ommmmmmm............."
