The main reason why I don't want to display the cocos2D logo in my splash screen, is because I don't like the look&feel. The style is very cartoonish/childish and it doesn't suit every game. I would suggest to provide other kind of logos, maybe a more modern version, with the same character, but more professional looking. What do you think ?
Cocos2D logo, can we improve it

I really like this logo by Orta:
http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/wiki/lib/exe/fetch.php/resources:cocos2d_logo_concept.pdf
Its also cartoonish, but less so than the usual cocos logo.

You can add your own if you want. I think riq isn't restrictive.

From the ones available i really like that one too ;) As a metter of fact my game is using a modified one to fit landscape orientation :)

I;m so glad someone else said this. I'm too new here to speak up about it, but I would love to put the logo prominently, if it was nicer.
How about someone makes a lovely splash class, that has some animations and some particle effects with a nice logo
that we can splash for a few seconds..?I would if I had more skill with that kind of thing, but still learning..

@riq,
If you think we need a professional icon for cocos2D, TanksArtStudio is happy that we can help on this.
If so, please give me a "design direction" including the information of "former icon, what information should contains in it, sample of styles you like, any idea flied through your brain when imagining the icon, and the size requirement".@all,
Please help on the idea of the icon----------------

How about a little logo competition? (The winner may use cocos2d for free for his next game :o)) ..just kidding)
Does this forum have any poll functionality?

yes, I know that the current logo doesn't look very professional.
So, feel free to use any logo from here:
http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/wiki/doku.php/resources:logosor a modified version of those logos, or a new logo.
If you modify or create a new logo, please, add it to the wiki.@tanksartstudio:
thanks for your help. Feel free to make a logo that would like to include in your game.
All I can say is that "cocos" is an spanish word that means "coconuts". So, I would appreciate that the new logos that are made, has something to do with "coconut".

For what it's worth, I kinda like the original logo - granted it's kinda quirky and a bit silly (the coconut man running with a big smile) but I like it.

Seams I should make a design direction myself. I will put it this forum for review before we start to design it.
We hope that we can make a logo that can be widely accepted, not just "one of choice". So Let's take sometime.
@riq,
Thank you! I will take some time to study this.Posted 2 years ago # -
I'll try something too

Love the coconut speakers - genius!

Yeah, nice Jamil. Can you add the names of each to the logos too?

thanks guys, I made some improvements;

Jamil, is it possible to share those as layered images?
Posted 2 years ago # -
Great job, Jamil. By the way, I think you misspelled "CocosDenshion".
Posted 2 years ago # -
you're right, actually I guess I just never knew how to spell it,
anyway ImageShack seemed to have lost my image, so here it is again (still mispelled) though;

Great logos Jamil, but I don't like the font you used, readability is not very good.

okay here's the latest revision now;

I would also agree that using a cool moving splash screen would be nice. I have 0 artistic ability so unfortunately I can't help here. I like your versions jamil but I still think it's too cartoony. It'll work for some games but not all.
Posted 2 years ago # -
Much better!
Posted 2 years ago # -
arian, if you could give me like a screenshot from your game, maybe I could make something more suitable for you
Posted 2 years ago # -
No this fits my game nicely actually! Thanks for the offer though, I just meant something more general. Not cute or too hardcore, just a professional logo.
I only have one game though now, haven't had any time for another. When school starts I want to do it on the side.

I really like the logos Jamil. The coconuts as speakers looks great!
Posted 2 years ago # -
I like those Jamil! You should make them into a splash screen as well.
Posted 2 years ago # -
nice! Especially like the denshion one. Perhaps it could have an ipod touch/iphone with the EQ on the screen, instead of a hi-fi?
Posted 2 years ago # -
Great logos Jamil! You should throw a copy on the wiki page riq linked to. That way we can find them when we need them.
