So here we are. It's 2011 going on to 2012 and SnarkPit is still kicking it.
I've been meaning to make a bumper sticker promoting the site for my car for ages and I finally found the will power to sit down this holiday season and do it.
However when attempting to make it at the resolution I wanted, I found I needed to create sort of new content instead of stretching the current and past ones and have them look crummy.
I've posted these before, but here is the evolution since I've been here of the SnarkPit Logo:
2003 Leperous version:
2008 (2009 officially; courtesy of G4MER a.k.a. Muhnay):
in 2010 our friends over at the
OS League [UPDATE: Site defunct, idk what happened since.
OSL Steam Page for promotional purposes had their resident site designer develop a quick tag-friendly logo and approve it with us for showing on their site. By the time I figured I liked it, all that was left was the small .jpg they used shown below:
I still liked it, so I decided to use it as inspiration, while also calling upon the previous ones for reference in identity. Here's what I came up with:
I made it from scratch, so I've organized my .psd to allow for editing it in minute ways and of course at higher resolutions to use for other promo stuff. But before going any further with it, I wanted to garner you guy's opinion on it, and see what you would change about it, if anything at all? or keep or revert back to the current or old ones?
Either way I had fun making this and just wanted to throw it past ya. If anything, it'll become my new bumper sticker!
Also I actually have a list of possible new/alternative slogans we could use, but it's just not with me atm. (in a couple of weeks I'll be with it again). But if you guys have suggestions for different slogans, or arguments to the contrary, I'd like to hear your opinion.
Also ANYONE is welcome to throw in their two cents. Outsiders and lurkers alike, feel free to chime in and tell us what you think about the site and the logo. Is it still confusing?
Thanks,
