Ya gotta admit, LBD and Beholder have been up there for quite a while now. Maybe once the War Drums gallery is released or we get better pictures of the GBD or CRD, we could get a spiffy new logo?

While I do like the current logo, beholder fan, I would not mind seeing a new one. I realize it is a lot fo work but it would be cool.

As much as I love the beholder I think it did it part.
IMHO the logo should contain a dragon, an iconic classic monster (not unsimilar to the beholder in popularity. Ogre Mage perhaps. Or Stone Giant. Or Efreeti. Or Pegasus) and a "new" creature (Like WD Warforged Barbarian, or Aspect of Hextor).
What about the SW minis in the logo ? Shouldn't they get a new look as well. While I do not play SW if you're making a change, go all the way.

As long as things don't change but more than once per year.... Those of us who stick with one Avatar would probably all agree! ΖD]

Dragons, and perhaps Vader on the other side?

Keep the Beholder.

you can change anything else but the beholder is quinessential D&D IMHO.

A new Dragon, a Beholder, something else. I like the warforged wizard but if someting changes I hope its that one.

Perhaps include the winners of the various Best Mini contests recently held by vash9284? The fact that the Best. Mini. Ever., the Bladebearer Hobgoblin, has absolutely nothing to do with my suggestion, and I'm shocked, *shocked*, that anyone would insinuate such a thing!

Last time this topic came up for discussion, there was a significant voice that wanted to add AAM as well. Is that still a concern?

Someone post the link to an image of just the maxminis.com text (as I really don't feel like attempting that gradient right now) and I could have a new logo out by the end of the afternoon.

Just jogged this from the hard drive.

If you guys want a new logo, someone will have to design it. In the past, Darkfather came up with a few.

jai will put it up, but someone other than him will have to design it.

That is awesome!
The GBD watermark look rocks.

But to appease the masses, i think we need to include AAM. Changing logos does get annoying to some folks (and i am close to one of them).

oh, and no "year of the dragon" (somebody at WotC might complain).

Masses Appeased?



I'm not one for image changing of Avatars, but even I think it may be time for an update to the maxminis logo. DK is a year old now [:P] Of course this was in no way my way of stepping on toes, I just like designin stuff in my free time at work and figured I'd give this a shot.

And Tactician, this was just a simple Photoshop file. Good program for this sort of suchwhat.

I do like the look of that one. I never was thrilled with the current one (which I did create so I can criticize!). There were a few others I preferred but didn't get popular vote. However, Vash's looks great -- nice and simple, yet effective.
