It's compemetition time!
In celebration of the fact that we now have control over the 64Digits Steam group again, I want to hold a competition to get a new profile picture designed for it! The current one is a bit crap and has been there for far too long.What to do
So because we're a CAOLMLMIUNNOINTEY, we're turning that responsibility over to our members! Get out your paint brushes, your pencils and your tablets and make some sweet, sweet art.Let's keep it 64Digits and gaming related. The image gets displayed at 184x184 pixels, so keep that in mind when you're doing your designering. No other requirements, no other constraints.The Prize!
We'll take the entries, and again, let the community decide on which they like the best. The winner will get used as the new profile image for the group. I'll also give the creator of the winning entry a Steam game of their choice up to the value of £20!When?
You have from the exact moment you read this blog post up until next Monday the 21st of March. That's ONE WHOLE WEEK from now.So get cracking!
1st LAR, then Mega.
While I really like the idea and how the one Mega made looks, I highly prefer something simpler as a community icon (or any other kind of logo for that matter since the point is to be easily recognised and remembered, feel free to go nuts designing header banners or whatever though).I'll be honest, I never thought of the downscaled icon (I forget that's what they do on the community popups).
So yeah, my design scaled directly to 32px looks kinda crap:1st Mega
2nd Cosine1st Cosine. 2nd Mega.
Mega's is cool but a bit dark on my computer.Because I like simplicity, I choose:
1st Cosine2nd LAR1. Cosine
2. Mega…I don't really hate the current one, but I guess I'm in the minorityi'd be okay with the current one if it didn't have u n e v e n c o l u m n s
also given the group description reads "THE CIRCLE MUST BE BROKEN" i'm slightly surprised no one tried throwing 64 digits in a circle or somethingbut here1. cosine2. larpoints to ferret and mega for potfrog and pixels, respectivelyI vote for the avatar used by this account
