I definitely like this one a lot better, but once again the "graciously documenting the documenting of our future arthritis" is white text with a black stroke. I know what it says, but my eyes fight to really make sense of it. It might just be a personal pet peeve. I love adding strokes myself, but for some reason the readability is really effected when the text is so tiny (blame the typography class I'm in right now.. my prof would kill me if I added stuff like that >_<).
Good work though. I like the track you're on. Whoever made that RB font did an okay job, but I really don't like the S that was used, so I just kept mine the way it was. _________________

That's what I've been using since the start. And that's what was on the page, so...
I will edit this if I can find a way to make the pixel text not drown out, without turning it black, unless that's the only way out. _________________

So far, I like Cyberwaste's a lot, aside from the Visitor font. It kind of fits, but it's definetely hard to read. I like the stroke more also, but with such small text, it's kind of a pain. Maybe a different font? _________________

I'm trying out some different fonts to see what I like... what Carrot told me in IRC was that he'd like to see what we can come up with without using game fonts.
Just something basic here. The flames got a little messed up and I can fix that, but the font is what I'm looking for thoughts on. I like the font for "wiki" a lot. _________________

Wow, I really like the font on that one Hailz, the text is a little light but other than that I really like that one. Maybe try some black (or at least darker) text? Just a suggestion, I have no artistic skill so I'm probably not the best person to listen to . |

Wow, that looks badass... I love that font, what's it called? I can't be bothered looking it up. _________________

Agreed, but as footballtom said the text should be just a tad darker. I don't know about black, I think that might make the flames look kind of funny. But yeah the text looks great! _________________

Thanks guys. I'm in class right now but I'll play around with that logo a bit later today.

Honestly, if you are going to use the Guitar Hero font for it please move the left side of the H on "Hero" up more seeing as the only reason it was skewed like that in the first place was because of the G that was on top of it. Now there is no G on top so there should be no reason for it to be skewed down like that.
I'm certainly not an artist or anywhere close but I'm suprised the artistic people on this site hadn't caught on to that earlier. _________________

Thanks. I don't know about this version of it... Maybe it's just me but the gradient on the main text looks strange... But I love the colours on the flames in the back, and the wiki... I'll probably give it one more shot, but I think I'm outdone here.

That one is by far my favorite, style-wise, but I don't like the large 'O' much. _________________
