Nice nice

My main favourite



My second favourite



I prefer these because they simple, effective and not limited to any one media type and exactly what I was imagining. ANd also would work as favicons just nice.

Yes I'm making this logos by keeping in mind we need a 16x16 icon, so very simple
Good you like the "2 screens" idea, want me to proceed making a few variations?

Also, we need to use an open source font for the name, am I right?

[un1versal]

Yes sure, simple is good and often effective.

Just do what you feel like is right and sure just use whatever open resources would be preferable and easiest.

thx for the efforts, really appreciated

[samfisher]

No problem, these are all super easy to make

Ok, I made some variations:

Old one.


Combination of the 2 ideas you liked.

More variations:


Smoother:

Screen reflection:


Something:

Something something:


My favourite is the "combination" one, maybe 3D for 256x256 and flat for favicons.

Let me know what you think

[un1versal]

I like original



and like



then maybe



I could see this that



Rest just sort or loose it for me and I see F! track somewhere instead.

Yes, I like those indeed. would be nice to see some fanart interpretations of these and keep it short and simple.

But indeed something I feel has a strong potential. congrats.

@uNiversal: I've been a little busy lately (a lot of ppl asking for logos). So just the two of us here? Wasn't this a contest or something?
About the fanart, please give me directions, where is it intended to be used? Also some ideas/examples would be useful since I don't really know what you want

[un1versal]

The fanart is to be used in addon when you are for e.g on that addon page in kodi.

See https://github.com/slash2009/XWMM/blob/m...fanart.jpg and for e.g an example where it gets used is when you are in addon manager and select an addon (for installation) that has fanart you get that displayed in background. behind menus also when you go into addon settings configuration after install (if addon has configurable settings).

The dimensions are 1280x720 really would suffice but they can also be 1920x1080 as I said 1280x720 are more then sufficient

As for contents of it its really up to artist/fan designing it but usually some artistic representation of addon (your imagination is the limit). If you look at the one I did for old one up on repo you will see what i did there (nothing really special bt could have gone anywhere)

I dont think there are many people interested in taking part of this "contest" from the lack of feedback or entries (nature of the beast?) and to be honest, that looking like the case you and me we decide the end of it will be and set bureaucracy aside

I understand you are popular by demand , and as such fully understandable, It would be nice to have something ready before kodi v14 goes final so at least the artwork isnt some transitional goop,

Thank you in advance for your commitment and ideas

[da-anda]

this one is really nice - just a different font maybe

[samfisher]

@uNiversal: thanks, that was clear enough
@da-anda: thanks, the fonts I used are just temporary. Will work on that later.

So what logo do we want to use? I'll make a fanart (and everything else needed) after we choose. Or do you want me to try more ideas?

[un1versal]

You know I think in between you me and da-anda we can decide.... and just go for it... dont linger on the sweet shop and go straight to the cakes.

[samfisher]

Some open source fonts:





And some fonts I made:


Anything you like?

[un1versal]

I like http://openfontlibrary.org/en/font/xolonium but that's just me, without fiddling with font at all in all lowercaps

[samfisher]

OK, let's use xolonium. I think It goes well with the less curved one.

[un1versal]

I like.. maybe a more meat on the logo bones (so it becomes a more balanced ensemble) but yea, looks nice and simple.

Or slightly thin the horizontal lines of the image, so they match the text (at the moment the two look somewhat unrelated)...
