Logo Hammer 9.4 Time!
-
As you saw with the new site, I wanted to update the logo a bit. I wasn't happy with the one that's currently there, so here's a new variation on it.
What do you guys think?
-
stylistically i'd tend to put
THE
in lowercase,other than that, looks cool!
-
That W is kind of uncomfortably close to the Y.
And I'm not sure about that watery tomato soup colour.
-
The face color doesn't match the wtf color =(
-
-
You are a meanie.
-
Yeah, that was trying for a stylistic thing... Monaco is monospace, so the W is already a bit wide, and then we reduced spacing altogether. But I don't think the monospaced comes thru at all, so maybe I'll try some hand kerning.
Could use a better red. I wonder if the CodeSOD Red would work?
-
If you hate someone teach them to recognize bad font kerning.
mwa ha ha ha ha ha!

-
+1 for CodeSOD red
-

This.
It'd be fun to leave it, though, so that we can have another regularly appearing topic that pops up whenever new people arrive.
-
I like the one on the :1000 site for font-size and width. Push the text up a little and move the "WTF" to be under Daily to make it less wide.

Pink?
You must have a faulty screen.
It's a pretty shade of red: #C1103B
-
must agree on the kerning issue - generally not good even on other letters.
-

Needs more space between the L and the Y…
-
I think that darker red would look better. Also another vote for more space between the W and Y.
Edit: Also, I like it. That would have been a better thing to put first...

Pink?

It's a pretty shade of red: #C1103Bthis is red:
#FF0000
this is dark pink
#FF0080
which one is
#C1103B
closer to?get rid of the damn trolleybus crap emoji, i'm tried of having to type all the way to trollf to autocomplete the only good emoji this pos has.
-
Pink is a narrower term than Red, though.
-
Except for the already stated issues... Approved!
-
not really at all....
Dark Pink at
#FF0080
Hot Pink at#ff69b4
to be red you need pretty much zero additional blue and green additional hues. If you add greens you get brown, orange, and yellow, blues gives pink, purple
Crimson:
#990000
Now THAT is a pretty red.
-
which one is <code>#C1103B</code> closer to?
The dark pink, according to CIE2000. (Distance 17.86 vs 19.02.)
-
The face color doesn't match the wtf color =(
Instant Eyedropper begs to differ; it reports both being the same shade of red.
-
But they look different by way of bad kerning and extra spacing.
-
The white/red makes it look washed out, the black letter/red makes it look darker.
Eye illusion magic.

Why not just :tro ?

The evil ideas thread is over there.

really surprised you didn't link to xkcd there...
-sigh-

That's because we had much more fun things about kerning posted on here before:

Happy now?

I thought of that when I first read the thread.
As for the logo @apapadimoulis, It is not entirely shit. Will it be on a white background? If so, I think the red might be able to use a very slight black border to keep it from bleeding. And please, please, add some space between the Y and W. I know it is probably meant to extol a bit of WTFiness, but that much hurts.
-
Why not just :tro ?
that's what I do now, but the down arrow requires moving my hand. tbh, typing :trollf is probably faster.
and it would be :tro enter if they removed that stupid trolleybus. seriously, I guarantee the trolleybus has NEVER been used intentionally, only accidentally by people trying to .
-
But this is Discourse. Emoji of no real use are completely par for the course.
-
What a straight W.
-
-
W
better?
-
-
Hmm, quite apart from the letter positioning, is it just me or is the location of centre dot of the eyes not quite so appealing in this version? The original gives the impression of being cross-eyed by the sheer WTFy-ness, but the new one doesn't quite capture the same charming vibe. (Are those dots the same size?)
The eyebrows, eyeball shapes and mouth are fine.
-
I noticed that and thought the new face looks slightly less retarded than the original.
-
yes, the new face looks genuinely outraged BY the WTF.
the old face looked like the guy CAUSING the WTF.
-
amazing what a little eye-spacing can do for you...
-
O.o

Ò.ó

Give him a goatee and an English accent and he'd be unstoppable.
I'll even provide the English accent. I can do classy-clueless.

I tried, looks more like a drooling moron now. ok, made him a little better.

Sorry, that's not me. I can't do the voice for that look.
