Hi,

A while ago, I thought it was time to get myself a logo. So, I decided to have a helm as logo, because my last name is “De Ridder” (in Dutch), which would be translated to “The Knight” in English. I like the game Diablo II, and then I thought of it that the Barbarian from Diablo II has a really cool helm, so I decided to use that shape. I don’t know if this is allowed by Blizzard Entertainment, so I’ll contact them soon. But before I do that, I want to get some opinions on how it looks and if you can recognize it.

Here’s the GIF. Remember, this is not the final version. It’s just a beginning:  
 ![](http://voetsjoeba.asianillusion.com/logo.gif)

And I was thinking, it’d be nice to have something like [this](http://voetsjoeba.asianillusion.com/logo.html) on the splash page. It’s similar too Kajinku’s (hope you don’t mind kajinku 😊\*\*) What do you think about it ? Oh, the text is just dummy text, don’t bother it.

[EDIT] Hehe, 1111 posts 😛 [/EDIT]

I think the lines need some anti-alias they are not crisp. I kinda recognize what it is I think…A helmet with like feather wings on the side? I think you should make it bigger and fill it in. Provide a bigger version.

Hey, thanks for the info grim 🙂 The first one: It’s only the outline, it’s needs a lot more detail. About the sharpness: the original image was very small, that’s why it’s hard to get the lines sharp. But, I’ll try 🙂 So, everyone, which one do you consider best ? 1, 2 or 3 ?

I did, I found [this site. The first of the second row is the one [URL=http://www.pixelranger.com]Pixelranger](http://www.mwart.com/store.asp?page=2&cat=32) got his logo from (I think).

So … shall it be three ?
