I forgot about this LL logo I made a while back:
I guess I thought it was funny enough to save.
I also tried to do a decent tshirt-type graphic, and this was as far as I got (image linked due to hugeness - 1000x1000 pixels). The sword image is a copyrighted one, so it's unusable. I just used it as a placeholder until I found something better, which I never did. I ditched the project.
Anyhow, I guess what I am trying to say is that I'd love to work on a LL logo, but I really NEED an original graphic produced by an actual artist. It should be something simple, and should be something that scales well. Too much shading and too many colours make a graphic hard to scale.
Letters and text do not a recognizable logo make (Coca Cola excluded). A simple graphical image does (Nike swoosh). I can't draw for crap, but I can take a drawn image and do all sorts of wonderful things to it to make any number of wonderful logos, banners, buttons, street signs, Monday Night Football commercials, and "do not remove" tags for mattresses.
To make a long story short, we need to decide on what sort of image (in the literal sense) that could possibly represent the Lurker Lounge, and have someone draw one. I've been playing around with sword images, but I'm sure that there are lots of other options we could could chose from.
BTW, I vote hot pink for the new forum skin.
