The Shrine

I though maybe we should have a new logo, and I came up with this:

Thoughts? That's a poor man's drop shadow on the text, but I did this more as a concept than a final product.

logo contest!

truthfully i don't like this one that much, kup, but i like the idea a lot! maybe i'll try to whip up an entry.

sorry if i'm being a dick...

Dude, you don't have to apologize for your aesthetic tastes.

Since it is The Shrine now, we could even do away with the 2 planets and get a whole fresh new logo. I bet Sereph could find something decent since she is now an avatar expert.

From the Aquademesne (Mental) to the Otherworld Shrine (Sine, Chrono, others) to just 'the Shrine'. I think we may need an entirely new logo.

btw, what the F%$k is up with the amoun Mental is now posting! He disappears for years and when he finally returns he is a posting phenom. Or maybe he's just smoking some 'stuff' with his hookah that is making him hyperactive.

i like the new format, and this board is my baby, after all.

That almost sounds like Crono in that regard, except he still hasn't come back from his hiatus yet.

He just wants to be a posting GOD like myself.

Ana al-ibtida^a wa al-hAdil!

Edit: Okay, I forgot "guess what this means in a language you probably don't understand" is a game that I like to play, but I don't know about you guys. Roughly translated I think this means "I am the beginning and the end!" in Arabic, but I had to use a dictionary so I'm not really sure. Zeus, if you know Arabic you can back me up or correct me as the case may be.

As far as the logo goes, I like the design of Japanese shrine images i was looking at on google image (the style of the "arch" or gate, with crossbar on top) but i don't know the history or symbolism and i am always a little scared of using things i do not understand.

How bout a hookah?

No, here we use obsure gaming references, like "I am the Alpha and the Omega..."

Wasnt it the Electronic Gaming Messageboard or some shit before the Aquademesne?

Yeah, I think so. I still have that history page. I could have swore I updated it sooner than that.
