In search for a good site header (hello graphicians!)

Here's one I did last night for the site

While I personally think it doesn't fit too well as a default header for the site, I very much like this variation of the logo and I think it could be used for special sub sites, for example a compo site!

Lol, I got a bit carried away I think, but if you guys want the .psd, for the logo variation, I can post that here sometime

The flames are separate from the original design, and the vectors were done in freehand, so just give me a shout if there's anything you guys want.
I'll make some other versions this weekend. I've finally decided to spend some time on the things I believe in, and this is one of them - so, expect more... every now and then ^_^

Hmm, PSD. I don't really have anything that can reliably open PSD files (SVG would be preferrable, but I see that this might be impossible here), but I suppose the PSD file could still be put in the graphics archive. BTW, the "m" looks a bit incomplete without the plug that used to be below the letter...

I didn't like the second plug - in fact I'v come with a lot of new modplug logos which I will post here too.

I'll take a copy of the normal logo with me home from work so I can play with it the way everyone's used to. I'm just going to keep myself occupied this way for a while...
messing around doing some design that I enjoy - its been a while since I'v wanted to design anything outside of work, so its a good thing for me personally.. ie. if I get annoying, just ignore me

this is something everyone can use

And here's my idea of what the modplug logo should change to, its simpler, and I think it will stay in people's minds longer because of that.

Digs the Retro feel of the first one.
I think the 2nd one while very clever is a bit too ambiguous.

lol, its just a font I like, but I dont see a tentacle there, I saw it as a guy mixing / djing. Just went searching on google for tentacle to get an idea of what you guys are talking about - T_T what have you exposed me too!!! and I didn't find anything...
So, in conclusion - I'm a trained graphic designer, so I can come up with more - lol. But that last logo says omp in case you were wondering and I still think it would be effective.

Saga Musix · October 04, 2010, 14:08:42

I can also see all kinds of things in the latter logo, but not what you want me to see.

I'm afraid it made me think

"the tracker formerly known as modplug"

sorry.

Wow sorry to offend you. I just thought it'd be simpler. And look cooler. I'll take it off, just guys look at both of them on a white background. Anyway. I'll bring you some variations of that first logo, without the fire, tomorrow. And i'll do some simple banners. In hindsite i should have written, that its something along the lines of what i think modplug should change to. For print, but now that i think of it. Why? Ok. I'm a dreamer.

I agree! Except for the plug. I don't like thte plug in any of the logos and I don't like the "pattern background" in any of the banners. Then again, I couldn't do anything half as nice.

what I meant is that is was reminiscent of Prince's "symbol"
