You mean the SoldatForums logo? Actually I think it looks quite nice and fits in well with the rest of the page

this one?

I don't like it as well. I think it looks a bit childish, honestly, like some small toy figurine or something.

I think the Soldier should be changed a bit. The rest of it's fine, in my opinion.

remove the soldier and make the white ball into a pokemon ball!!!2

I for one can never make a better one than we already have, but I know that alot of forum members are good at that stuff, so it will be nice to see.

I prefer the current one over that one. I that one looks more childish and doesn't blend as well with the forum colors as well as the current one does.

It has too many colors in it.
If I had the PSD file I could blend the image with the blue background, except for the SOLDAT sign. But right now trying to filter out the SOLDAT sign would ruin the quality alot.

Im very indifferent about this matter. It would be nice if someone upgraded the logo, but not totally change it. It works well with the color schem.

Well, I'm not totally indifferent, I really like the current one.
If the logo gets updated then it'll be a hard job for the creator to beat the current one and get my vote ;).

no, the image I linked was elephant hunter's original design for these forums.  The old forums were completely different.

I would absolutely love it if the old one was used again. I like the old logo much more than the current one.

I like the current one... The one FLAB linked is too big and distracting from the point of forums.

And regarding the comments about current one being too childish or whatever, I suggest you look around more. Most of the Soldat population are children.

it's like a stretched PSP background, only yellow.

It would be epic without the yellow, maybe use both of the forum's shades of blue instead.

Give the current guy some muscles and a chainsaw on his back and I think we're good to go. Maybe make him flying instead of crouching, but I think the current basic design of the logo is great. It's not like I've got the logo on my screen the entire time, I don't really care too much.

it sucks why does the guy have a fluero green ass and a gun thats like 2m long

that "green ass" is a grenade, and the gun isn't that long..

i was kidding about the grenade but look at the scale of the gun to the guy
if that guy was standing up it would be his height or longer

prolly needs a little fiddling but i thought i might keep hard gay out of it

You should get ColorZilla. It's a nifty extension for Firefox that allows you to grab the colors of anything on the page in hex or rgb.

if that guy was standing up it would be his height or longer

Bah. You're right, and I didn't realize that terrible misproportion until I started working on the Soldat icon contest. Even looks rather large for a mounted gun.

Is anybody here good at drawing proportional Soldaten?
