I need some help finishing up a logo:



The bar needs to stay that way, I need help with the design of the words " XBMC " .... doesn't matter what design but I needs to say " XBMC " . Must be PNG

Clean bar: http://fc02.deviantart.com/fs25/f/2008/110/9/4/Clean_Bar_for_logo_by_finestcall.png

Very important logo as it would be used for a upcoming skin project for xbmc which is open source.

http://xbmc.org/

Prize up for grabs is PSC Advantage 3 Months...

This image will show what I'm talking about: The logo has to go there!

I like what you've got Oscar. But the font is kinda hard to read against that gradient. I don't know if it's the colors or if it's the 3D bevel hilites that makes it tough. Confused

See I like the background design but not the font or font-coloring.

Maybe the front face of the lettering, which is currently black, needs some kind of gradient/shine to stand out? It sorta gets a bit lost at the mo...the red is nice against the background...maybe glassier/silvery/red etc...just my 2c....

Here you go Oscar:-



Logo's don't work in isolation, so I added a text box underneath the banner to see what it looked like on the page.

HTH! Smile

"Here's an update on your original:-



Just gave it some more 3-D effect and levitated it a smidge into the air. Also increased the highlights on the characters.

My image is a bit course, but I'm sure you can tweek your original much better.

HTH Smile
