These were some designs for a proposed WBO redesign that were turned down.
Black and White ver:
Just wanted to see what other people thought of them really.

I like these designs!
Why exactly were they turned down?
the logo wasn't beyblade related enough, the metal face lacked meaning.

The colors were too dark, but there was a general resistance to the change considering that a good few people will have only just found out that Storm Pegasis exists, let alone Galaxy Pegasis.

This seemed odd, since the point was also brought up that people would be fine with the original Pegasis wheel being part of our logo since people would find out about it by looking around.

Why they can look around and find that, yet not Galaxy I'm not sure lol.
Thanks for the kind words though Smile
i think they look great as for the metal face maybe putting the Pegasis face on it would have gave it meaning but i still think its awesome u have alot of talent dude
Reasonable understanding.
I especially like the Japanese instructions background.
Something about the red, black, and white colors make me like it.
Definitely prefer the one we have now. It's far less inviting and playful for a toy, they're far too serious.

The main problem with this (and this is probably something I should have stated over there) is that if we ever should want to get any kind of t-shirt designs or anything along those lines printed we'd have to deal with the copyright infringement.
The Pegasis Logo itself is a copyrighted design :\

That should be understandable, because it IS the main character's bey.
Sorta like how Pikachu itself is copyrighted.
How were you able to use both Pegasis and Storm Pegasis on the banner now? Is it because the site gains no profit?
Exactly. If we were making profit from the design on a t-shirt, we'd be liable.
on the metal face would it be plausible to put wbo instead of leaving it blank
Far too grungy and busy for me. Not that I don't like them, but for me Bey isn't a particularly dark game and so should have brighter colours. I think that the current logo certainly would attract more people than those.

EDIT: pretty much the same as Benkei lol
I like the theme you went for, but I do agree it is a tad busy.
This was another alternate on a slightly classier route

Again, too dark.
I do love stars and space though :3
The only thing I don't like is the metal face on the "O".
I think the blue 'bars' should be replaces with this color:

and the page color stay the same if you were to use the latter

this is kind of what i mean( obviously this looks terrible but it conveys the colors)

I get the stars, because all the beys are based off of horoscopes.
The theme itself is pretty cool, but some new people may ask why space is related to the game.
I liked the third one on the OP, but it is a bit too dark..

Constellations. Those folks would have to be dumb-dumb canuckleheads not to get it.
well WBO could offer multiple skins for the forum : )
its nice and also the metal face o is nice but the background is still too dark

Well I mean if they are returning beybladers from the first gen, (or new to beyblade at all) they probably wouldn't know what constellations would mean to the game.

Pegasus
Aries
Leone
Saggitario
Aquario

It doesn't take a genius to figure it out.
I think the last one you put up with the stars is sick, is the site getting a re-design any time soon?
I think that what we have already is fine but you do get tired of looking at it after a while. Maybe on the banner we could have Galaxy Pegasus and Ray Unicorno clashing into eachother, with Galaxay Pegasus on the left and Ray Unicorno on the right, and behind Galaxy Pegasus could be the Pegasus constelation the way they show it on the Anime, and behind Unicorno could be his constelation the exact same way. and then next to them on the very left could be the "WBO World Beyblade Organization" thingy (the thing thats in the middle of the current banner)
I kind of think the colours should be dimmed a little.
