Sorry for reverting your change, MrSinistar. Your logo looks nice, but I think we should try to mostly keep the logo consistent between the corner and the front page, though, and the one we have currently works a little better with the square shape than yours would. I'd actually be down for another revision of the logo, though, if you wanted to try to tweak yours a bit; it'd be cool to have it say "Retro Modding Wiki" instead of just "Retro Modding" (you could try making a more vertical layout for the corner and a more horizontal one for the front page if you want), and having the space inside the letters being transparent would be nice, since as embyr pointed out [http://www.metroid2002.com/retromodding/wiki/User:Embyr_75/Sandbox it doesn't look great on non-white backgrounds].--[[User:Parax0|Parax0]] ([[User talk:Parax0|talk]]) 05:32, 25 January 2015 (CST)

:Funny, I actually did a second revision of my logo that changed almost all the things you mentioned. Wasn't sure if I should post it since you guys seemed satisfied with the current one. Here's [https://i.imgur.com/fdXpkmH.png that], and here's [https://i.imgur.com/3RhPoro.png a version with the spaces empty].

:: Oh that's nice! Will put that up. I'd still want to consider using MrSinistar's if he tweaks the things I mentioned though, since I like what he did with the subtext; it looks a little cleaner/nicer. Guess the best thing to do would be to put it up to a vote in the forum thread? :P In any case they're both awesome, thanks for the effort from both of you. --[[User:Parax0|Parax0]] ([[User talk:Parax0|talk]])

::: Something that actually fills out the entire square would be ideal for the corner IMO but I realize that's kinda hard to do with the Retro logo since it's so horizontally-oriented. Not a big deal either way though. --[[User:Parax0|Parax0]] ([[User talk:Parax0|talk]]) 12:20, 25 January 2015 (CST)

::::Yeah, I would have liked to get a perfect square too, but I couldn't think of a better way to orient things to make that work. BTW, I noticed those suit pickup icons you made were a little off-color, especially, the Light Suit- don't know if you mind that much, but I made [https://imgur.com/a/iEp1O a set of icons] a while back from direct texture rips, and they seem to have come out better in that regard.

:::::::No worries, Parax.  I'm glad you appreciate the work I put into the logo. :)  I do like the new logo now, the overlapping "Modding" text on the previous logo was bugging me, lol.  I'll be more than happy work on another logo and see I can do a more square design, but again, no biggie if you guys go with the original. --[[User:MrSinistar|MrSinistar]] ([[User talk:MrSinistar|talk]]) 14:45, 25 January 2015 (CST)
