... why does it have to be top tier?

frankly all you need in there of Street Fighter is a couple of the memorable ones, the ChunLi and Bison ones look great

Easy silhouettes from KOF?

Terry Bogard, make his hat white, or have a back shot with his star
Iori Yagami, back shot of him instead, with the moon on his back white


I was thinking of drawing up an image of a bunch of fighting game bosses, maybe i can manipulate that into some sort of sub-banner...

Thinking of putting Sagat/Geese/I-No/Gill/Rugal/Bison/Orochi/Seth/Dizzy/Mr.Big/Krauser/Jinpachi/Unknown/ OH GOD THERE ARE TOO MANY BOSSES

Theres no hostility here Mike. Everyone likes the logo.

The blue i think was just flux experimenting with putting your logo on a black background. It wasnt a "bro u shud change it to dis plx" gesture, just an idea.

Exactly. I would have hoped it was fairly obvious that all I did was 'invert colours' to see what it'd be like on a black background, since I don't really like white shirts/hoodies. I was just too lazy to magic wand the logo bit, so that inverted to blue. Not really sure the whole thing works that great on a black/dark bg though, thoughts on bg colours, ppl?

Quotepeople would just like to see a broader spectrum of characters in there.

Yeah, basically. Don't need an entire backline of SF chars when there are so many other fighters to pick from (MORTAL KOMBATTTT! :D)

QuoteIve said what i want to say about the smaller-type font in an older post.

Yep, agree - hard to read & hard to tell it's even an URL

Basically, i like it. I think the colour scheme needs a bit of revision. (I prefer Mikes colour scheme, but the orange is the only part that bothers me. Maybe try and use the green that the site has currently? Just a random thought)

I like green, and it sort of has a 'NZ-ness' about it (or the other way around I suppose), not sure how it would fit alongside that image though.
Any sufficiently godlike street fighter technique is indistinguishable from randomness

ALERT INCOMING SERIOUS POST!!! PREPARE YOUR SERIOUS FACE!!!

I think that the logo shouldbe a mechanism with which to draw people into the community.  In a way it needs to draw the casual gamer in, so that we can then turn them into a hardcore world warrior.  In that light I think we should just try and stick to the most popular characters.  Everyone knows Ryu, Magneto, or Jin because those games are mainstream (or in Mags case the cartoon and comics). 

However, I don't think that your casual gamer is going to be able to recognise some of the more niche fighting game characters, (eg: KOF, SC4, VF, GGXX) and that by including them we might end up alienating potential new members.

In my opinion the logo is fucking fantastic as is, and I would gladly wear it on a t-shirt/hoodie/pair of underwear.  Good work dude!

Those are my thoughts anyway.

KOF is definitely mainstream. Theres a reason that there are 800 KOF machines at yifans. GG not so much, but i was just suggesting other options.

He's the hero NZism deserves.
But not the one it needs right now.
So we'll hunt him.
Because he can take it.
Because he's not our Hero.
He's a Niuean Guardian.
A watchful poster.

A lot of people know who Terry Bogard is... also, ever since CvS2, a lot more people know about SNK chars too

We need to be drawing EVERYBODY in, not just scru- i mean newcomers, I myself would put a character from Street Fighter, King of Fighters, Darkstalkers, Guilty Gear, Melty Blood, Tekken, Marvel and ... Tatsunoko

EDIT: That way, when newcomers look at the logo, they'll recognize 1-4 of the characters, get curious and start asking questions!

Getting them into other fighting games

I disagree with Melty blood and tatsunoko, but that is the point im trying to get across aswell.

(I totally forgot about darkstalkers. EVERYONE knows who morrigan is.)

Like anyone else on the these forums besides me plays Melty Blood or Guilty Gear actively...

Making it pretty much redundent...   :D

Heihachi would be a better character for the logo. He is not a flying penis like Jin and even Sony thinks he is awesome...  :)
