Holiday Logo Contest

[Somnastra]

Was amazed by all the insanely beautiful logos, then I jump to page 3 and see a wall of Billy Ray Cyrus.

I don't know why I'm cracking up at this.

I have no regrets, at all.

There's just something about the gif. No matter what situation you throw it into it just works:

 

[ForestRose]

I found out I'm not very good at logos.. but I tried! Wish I could have neatened up the letters a bit more... at least it flashes!

I don't understand your language-

That's what you mean, right?

*waves hands around and the image is magically resized...* Here you go

Eh, you know its not good way to edit pictures like that, eh ? Original image got 96 dpi, while yours was lowered to 72 dpi.

 

[Teeke]

I submit

The DPI information stored in the image has absolutely no effect on how the image is shown on a screen as browsers render images using their pixel dimensions (the images can then be scaled, skewed, etc. with CSS but that's another topic) . If we were printing the forums then yes the DPI information would become relevant, but then we wouldn't be using 96dpi...
P.S Check the logo image which is currently being used on the top of this very page if you want, but again it's irrelevant

Anyway good luck to everyone who has made a logo for the contest, they are all lovely!

You are right Boulder, thou I still find in an inefficient way to edit pictures, even if it has no effect on digital preview.

 

[Teeke]

Personal preference warning:
I like to just work at the resolution of the final image.
For my prints that's usually ~300dpi
Digital 72dpi

*2 cents*

 

[Rygan]

what the hell is a dpi

why are we engaged in a nerdbowl over it

 

[Teeke]

DPI is dots per inch.
Which isn't entirely accurate, because the printer will print thousands of dots per inch at a resolution of 300 dots per inch.
It's math, and confusing, and misleading.

Just count the pixels and move on.

 

[Somnastra]

Just count the pixels and move on.

Yes.

 

[Arrowflint]

Well, I guess I'll be throwing my hat in the ring.
This counts as one submission, but just ended up doing two designs.

God bless Ced's gif collection.
