Does anybody have any ideas for a Soldat logo/symbol/icon?
We don't really have an official logo for Soldat, do we?

Maybe we should do a little contest and see if there's any good stuff afterwards. Maybe we can arrange something with Michal.. include the logo in the Soldat intro?

There would finally be something for wallpapers :)
One request: Please don't use raster/pixel-based formats (if you HAVE to, make it big so someone can convert/vectorize it), but vector-based stuff (Freehand, Illustrator, ...) then we can still convert it to pixel images :)

That's the icon from Soldat.exe.. a bit small, don't you think?

It depends on the program you use. If you use vector based formats (you should know it if you do..) the size doesn't matter because you can scale it to ANY size. If you use something like Paint, Photoimpact, etc. make it really big, so I can convert it :)
Very few colors.. it should be a logo with contours, no fades etc.

maybe the simplicity of those lols, rofls, wtfs etc.
here are a few examples (just searched for "logo" in google):

Why vector? Because then you can STILL convert it to anything else, any size. You can apply filters afterwards.. :)

Yeah, if we say that the Barret represents Soldat, and all these noobs decide to try it, and then get killed by barrets every 3rd death, what would they think of Soldat?

Edit: I think we should all decide on a graphic that will represent Soldat, like that Double U graphic represents United Airlines.

How did you draw so well with inkscape? I cant even figure out how to change colours ;-; .. Mind you, I did install a slightly older version cos the newest version's download link wasn't woking for me.

BManx2000
July 18, 2004, 8:37 pm
Well, to start off, mostly I used the bezier curves tool (it can also be used to make straight lines). To change colors, you use the fill and stroke dialog (the botton with a gradient'ed round-cornered square).

Well, I took off the detail stuff and left just the outline which I started with. Is that better?

It's on the top toolbar, to the left of the button with an A on it. You should probably read the tutorials. If you don't have it then I suggest you try downloading the newest version from one of the 2 links on this page:
http://www.inkscape.org/download.php

Look in win32 in daniel's tarballs for the "latest.zip", or look in ishmal's builds. One of those should work (just make sure you have version 0.39)

Well, I think the ones that BMan and I submitted are too complicated. I think that if we took the gun Bman made, and doubled it, and made it look like that S in mine, and then gave it some color skin, and left the background white, it would make a nice logo.

Not bad. But I don't like his eyes. Is the soldier a reptile? His eyes are so small and very close to the ears. And it's LxS' style, not really how the soldiers in Soldat are supposed to look IMO. And again - to many details and it should be vectorized. LxS, I know that you like MSPaint but it's not a proper tool to make a logo.

Actually, I kinda like it. Make it more Solat like, the explosion in other words, not completely though, and then maybe some Solat figures. Don't know if they should be dead and flying away from the explosion though..


GB: Nice, very nice, but a bit too big imo..

The "SoLdaT" should be all caps "SOLDAT" (tHiS iS nOT cOol).
remove the "2d shooter", make it a lot bigger and send it to me [;)]
I like it for its simplicity and I can imagine it as an logo for Soldat.
What program did you use? Do you have it in a vector format?

make the background transparent maybe?

Change few of the guns to Soldiers or even just helmets would be good. Make it different guns falling down, instead of just the aug

Ok. Final version of my logo...really.

Just added 1 explosion to the bottom because it was empty.

[file]Soldat_Logo22_copy.jpg,2714,,0[/file]
And I want your help to decide witch is my best. (not to be an official logo)

The plain 1st?
The soldiers on 2nd?
Or this 3rd edition?

Grand D. your logo is cool. Like iron. And it looks like a real photo. I like it. [^]

I think we should get away from the banner-type things. They're too complicated for a simple logo. Do an image search on google for logo, most of them are more or less simple and not wide like a banner. I would recommend Inkscape since it kind of forces you to make it simple.

Kazuki
August 6, 2004, 5:05 pm
Ok, ok, why don't we have a set size for the logo, so that people don't make big ones. No matter how good they look, they don't fit as logos. Also, 4 colors maximum? :P

August 6, 2004, 6:23 pm
Hi!!! This is a soldat 04test. With a alpha at background. Ninj@, look, 70% alpha, its look good. And there more soldiers. The next day i will paint the explosion. I need some help too, to make weapon and soldiers. I only can do like STICKDEATH [8D]

Whipped up a small b\w one with some variants. Anything can be changed if needs be, just tell me what you think. And it's full vector format too.

I used this to make it, I love it ;)

bottom and top one

I like the bottom one best. It's simple enough to be a logo and it represents soldat without having little soldiers and explosions all over the place. Thumbs up!

Darksider
August 7, 2004, 7:09 pm
I can't disagree with that.

bb_vb's logo is (yet) purely the best for Soldat. [|)]

I really really like the 2nd one :)
Can you upload it as an AI, EPS or really big GIF so I can use it?

Artex
August 8, 2004, 1:05 am
I liked the 2nd one as well, the 1st is too blury, and in the 3rd you don't see the Soldat text that easy, 2nd is just, great :)

bb_vb
August 8, 2004, 4:00 am
Wow, I'm glad you liked it :D

I tried to export em as AI and EPS, but it didn't like it, and screwed it up. So here's the second two in big gif format.

If it's easier, I can make them 2 colour gifs so the outlines are better defined. Just let me know ;)

Thanks, that works pretty well, just have to try some different parameters for the vectoring.
I'll post again later.. when I'm "done" :)

again, the colors aren't right.. I'd have to take the pictures outside with sunlight, but I didn't feel like going to our garden with my case.
The case is bright gray and the logo is dark blue, 34x13cm
bb_vb, that simply is a great logo. Good job.
I can imagine it on the frontpage of Soldat.pl :)

bb_vb, if you pay the shipping costs I'll send one to you, color doesn't matter, size anything below ~55cm height. (it's a simple sticker and as you can see only the blue/black surface covers the case)

Under TFS' request of changing the colors to represent default Soldat colors, I've made an alternate Maroon and Green version.

Heres the original and the alternate side by side for comparison..

--edit--

..then I realized the colors weren't right, so I made a third one.

--edit--

..then I realized that wasn't the right color either, so I gave up.
