Towards the future!

As some of you may have noticed, Beywiki has a new banner! More changes will be added in the coming weeks. Take a look at the logo, and tell me what you think:


I wanted to talk a bit about the design of the logo. Of course I'm sure you all noticed the globe in the middle immediately. Beyblade has brought us together from all over the world. Quite literally, in some cases; I have met people from all over my own country, America, and even England and battled with them. We are truly an international community.

As for the AR choice, aside from the obvious facts that:

A: The colour works, and
B: Triple Attacker looks really damn cool

But I also chose it because each of the three different heads. We know that this is a terrible AR, and that none of its attack points really fit together ... well, we are all very different. Many of us have strongly differing personalities and we've had our clashes. However, we are all Bladers, and we stay friends.
MOAR ORANGEEEE
haha I like it Smile The figures remind me of bigturtle's avvy but filled in.
looks really good.
but I gotta say I was a fan of the more abstract, technical look, that wiki still has. not really digg'n the figures tbh

I wanted to keep the technical look while creating something inviting and personal. I think I've done that.
curious Brad, where is the stock your using to create banners and logos? scans of the foldouts in boxes, but are they all in one place?

oh just a suggestion, try rotating the AR so that we can see the three different heads, for the reason you said above.
Love the logo! I'm not sure that I'm a fan of the figures on the right though, it takes away the focus from the logo I think.

Awesomely cute. I very much prefer them to, say, Blader DJ going into a laptop.

There has to be weight balance in the image.

Thats true, I just thought it might look better with just the logo in the middle. Also, maybe since the two figures are touching the little banner with links below it, maybe changing them to the colour of that bar would be better?

Haha, I guess I'm just nitpicking right now. It really does look awesome (no, not cute).
I'll consider making them the color of the menubar ...

And it is cute!

Looks really cute and gives a warm, "come-over-here-so-we-can-discuss-Beyblade" mood.

Awesome.
Oh and I love the GDV in the middle. I noticed it just now for some reason x.x

Awesome.

This is EXACTLY what I wanted to say with it. Smile
I'm not sure if I really like the font being right over the logo like that *definitely nit-picking* It looks good when it's used in the banner, but something about it right over the globe like that isn't sitting right...

I do love orange <3

Edit: Oh! I forgot the part where I tell you that it's carp cool.
I will use the logo sans text whenever possible, but for instances where the text is necessary as an identifier I think this is the best solution.
Oh. My. God. Brad, you've really out done yourself this one. I logged on the forums, saw the banner, and seriously yelled "WHAT THE HELL!? THAT AWESOME!!!" At my computer.

That's just awesome. I'd come more often just to see the banner.
Thanks a lot, I worked hard on the logo. Smile
