Kyoji, You already have a project...Let's get that done first. Isurus still hops on and plays in vent sometimes with a co-worker but doesn't really have time to do anything with a group. He's planning on doing a theme for us in October when all his work slows down. Right now he is in 'crunch time' with the game he's currently working on.
I cannot do the mascot project period as it requires someone that can actually draw by hand then paint in photoshop, I doubt there are many in XoO who can do this which is why it wouldn't conflict with most, if any of the Task Force. Also, if Isurus is coming back then we migh as well let him develop everything as I am sure he can do better and by the time I make anything it will just be replaced. If the majority of the people really do not want a mascot (not a retarded cartoon mascot, but something for gamers) then that is fine. I just wanted to see if anything could be made that would be awesome enough to use. I have one person working on it so if its good ill post it in the task force section, the other person is never online or just hasn't gotten back to me yet.
What I find is that asking around personally on Vent about upcoming projects/ideas gives a good feel into what people want before investing any momentum/focus into it.
Seriously the symbol we have currently works just fine I have the fancy X as my desktop at work and whenever someone passes by my computer they comment on it
Hmm.... 1. Can Draw By Hand.... Check 2. Can use photo shop and/or the equivilent.... Check 3. Has a solid requested concept... Not Check... Toss me a few ideas and I'll see what I can sketch up as my specialty is character designs. -KM
And here I was all ready with an excuse to buy myself a new scanner as my old one was no longer compatible with Vista... Curse thee!!!! Curse Thee!!!!!!!!!! -KM
Yea the big thing in this thread was people talking about the need and not many ideas for what we would want if we were to have a mascot. I think we would have to go with something pretty basic, because we have so many different genres in the guild that if you lean towards one you alienate the others. So maybe something like one of the ball mascots that were in the OP
i stil after days am so focused on nominating dash's avatar of "elephant bouncing on a trampoline" as our mascot...srsly..what can beat that?
