*drum roll please*...

...Dangevin!

I want to personally thank everyone who contributed to the contest. It was a *really* tough choice for me and I almost gave up on making it. I narrowed down the results and integrated each one into the site in some way to see how the look and feel matched what I was hoping for.

After several weeks of this, I decided that I really liked Dangevin's logo, but it was needing a little something else to it: different colors!

I also needed a logo that would be recognizable in small and large form, and I think the logo works really well. I've attached the print and online formats here for you to see.

Thanks again, guys!

I wanted something that *didn't* look like a stereotypical Nintendo site. Why? Because they all look the same!

Yeah, that makes sense . It does fit the color scheme of the messege box so I guess it works. I havn't really checked out any of the other sites but you're probably right at them being all the same.

God damnit! That makes me cry

-------------------------


"It's always amazing to me how some of the most worthless games from a gaming perspective tend to fetch outrageous amounts of money. But then again, it could be said that something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. I'm curious if the high bidder of the $873.04 Stadium Events (cart-only) realizes that it's nowhere nearly as rare as about 20+ games I can think of that sell for 1/10th that amount?  At any rate, I wanted to draw attention to this trend: if people say it's rare, it must be true, and therefore it must be had at any price."

Not trying to steal anyone's thunder (or thread), and terrific logo by the way, I saw several I really liked, but I'm going to be needing a logo for my operation in the near future. Just throwing that out there. The catch is, I'm not sure yet what business name I'll need it for. I will run this as a contest through Nintendo Age when I am ready to hammer down the details. If things go as planned, this could be very big. CONGRATS TO DANGEVIN!!

Yep i get to put them on my prize shelf I've kept all the cool stuff I've won. I think of it as a nice open-ended "subset" that I exclusively collect for lol. Thanks, Dain for the loot...and all for the praise, thanks again but I must add it was refined with a lot of input from parties involved, the finished product looks ... well, finished because of a meeting of minds.

I looked over a lot of the logos in the other thread and was very impressed! A CIB Bonk's is quite a prize in itself. Even more so with a BB2 cart next to it! Congrats to the winner
