Ice Rinks for 07 (sorry for new thread)

Post by mark_htfc »

I was just wondering if people could just take a look to see if I am on the right tracks with putting the logos in the middle of the Ice. This is my first attempt ever. I know it will be plain but would like feedback. Mainly if im on the right tracks. Ta.

Personally, I would bump the size down a bit to fit in the circle. But that's just me, and I have a really really nagging mind that doesn't let me ignore small stuff like that. ;)

I don't know if it is easily possible,but removing the red circle and put the logo over the red line would have a better visual effect i think...

Also,a more "under-ice" effect for the logo would look more realistic ;)

Try making the logo slightly transparent (perhaps 75% opacity). You're on the right lines though :thup:

Better.

Maybe put the red line on your logo too. I think that will make it look loads better. The only tough part will be finding where it goes. :doh:

I really enjoy the 3rd pic! :thup:

I think it would be better without the circle (as it is actually). It gives more impact to the logo. But it's only my own and alone opinion :-D

Ok. If a few more + a Mod think it is ok I will get to work on putting Logos on. Then get them to host it.

lol

You would be helped with more feedback although :cry: Maybe make a new topic with a poll so everyone have to choose his favorite pic. Many of us like polls,so it may be a good idea to have more feedback :)

If still tied after this,well...you will be the almighty god that will make the final choice! :-D Afterall,it's your project ;)
