Community symbol

God durnit lets stop trying to make fancy sh** and just lay down some fast thinking simple symbol

There! Its modern looking holds 2 geometric shape and 2 openended lines.

Now someone who isnt feeling lazy right now make this look good, shaded, and steely-like!

I don't think this is really necessary, but if you're determined all I can say is that it should probably have something to do with Minecraft or something. There's no need to overthink it. Just write 'Futurecraft' or something.

I disagree. If you plan to support many platforms your symbol should be related to them all or not related at all. Because futurecraft is the idea I found star to fit well while the planet sort of symbolises unity (And couse you didn't give anything better :P ) . So shadowcat what exactly should your symbol resemble ?

If you plan to support many platforms

What does that mean, and why are we doing it? Like I said, I think you're overthinking this. How many videogame logos can you think of that are symbolic of anything, much less the layers of meaning you're trying to put into this? All we want is a recognizable symbol, not something that can be dissected by future scientists to reveal deep meaning in our lives.

Hey hey I've got a new national hymn:



When you need something random :P.

So lels agree about one community symbol you want.

I agree with the anthem

[blockman42]

there should be a shot of FV in there

That could go for background. Screenshots are stuff of quite high detail, too big for symbol, especially when resized (And this will probably happen). Also you search for something more abstract. Shadowcat made an abstract symbol yet it doesn't look good in my opinion and rather random (I'm not talking about the message which you don't want to have but the lines are drawn quite randomly).

It reresents 4 clicks in paint. And the slavery of trillions of electrons to make it.

There is a flag that I have been using on my ships that I always saw as the Futurecraft flag. Considering I don't have any pictures with me, I recommend we use that.

I recommend we use the owl government seal as a part of our seal. I can give you formal permission as well.

The community/forum symbol could just be all of the main faction's flags/seals arranged in an attractive manner.

[Iv121]

I won't even comment on this one . Read the last two pages .

Mack what is your symbol ? And ACH if it's still the same symbol I've told you that I think my random arrangement of lines looks better.

[Prototype]

How about we take all the best looking ships fom each faction/member, put them in one world, take a photo of all of them in the same view, then edit the backdrop to be FV

Edit: just thought about this for a few more seconds, the ships can't be too big, or have two or three big ships (e.g. The reckoning and something else that size) and a bunch of smaller ships

[Iv121]

Even then, it's a picture , not a symbol. I search for something abstract and less detailed. If you want to know how your idea will look like , take the background of our forums, compress it to 500x500 pixels and imagine you put it on a banner. If our imagination works similarly you should now say "This looks crap" . Have a look at my signature, It's quite abstract, can be made of any size (big and small), much more recognizable than a screen of ships and can go well with anything I want .
