Yoyogames' logo thing

If you didn't know already, Yoyogames is having a competition to design a new logo. Is anyone entering?

i did not know that

There is a $250 prize and 5 runner ups get gm8 pro free. I've entered.

Pretty awesome!

Sounds pretty cool.
Does it have to look simler to the original?
Pacman symbol and all?

It just has to bee a bitmap and a minimum of 640x480.

I get the feeling someone is going to use a different tool other than a hammer this time.
Screwdriver?

I wish I were good at graphic design. I would love to have an extra $250.

It said the logo had to fit in with the other Yoyo Games logos so I'm thinking they want it to blend with green well. I might try this out but I am no where near skilled enough to make a good logo; it's worth a shot though.

I sent mine yesterday, now I wish I hadn't put the crappy looking hammer and spanner on it.

can you put a picture of it here

Here is my logo

Ignore the white dots, I put the dots there so if anyone decides to steal it it will be a dodgy copy.

Clever

nice idea with the dots

Pity it won't work...
You'll be surprised what lengths some people will go to.

I'm not gonna lie The Chosen One, but that kinda looks crappy I'm expecting they want to have a hi-rez super cool looking pic that can only be made in photoshop or something.

But even still, you're way more ahead than me.

will they mind if i put my logo on it?

It says when you submit a logo, you are agreeing to handing over all ownership and rights of that image to Game Maker(or who ever is in charge). So I think if it did win, they would just remove your personal logo or ask you to remove it. Otherwise, if don't, they would probably not pic your submission.

awww

Too bad Fooey

Thanks for your opinion, but you want to keep a logo simple, it can't be too busy, and it has to relate to what it's for.

So what if you put a typical gamepad with a hammer and a screwdriver crossing other each other other the gamepad?

man i like my logo its nice... but it has nothing to do with the topic

Why don't you do that then?

Because I'm rubbish at drawing.

Personally I think that the present GM logo is just fine. On the other hand, though, I think that they really need to change the default icon for .gmk files becuase it is hidious. But then again, If someone does not change the icon for their game then you instantly know how much they really care about that game.
