    ^ Thanks! :D And that reminds me, I wanted to post larger versions of a couple of mine just so everyone can see the details.

    The Latin phrase says "From Knowledge, Friends". I thought it was appropriate.

    And I am very proud of my shuttle... even though it could never be used. I also really love using that particular illustration style.

    Any significance to NCC-4142-8?

    I don't know how you do it, and yes, the little shuttle is terrific. It looks very official, as if it could be splashed on a Star Trek Paramount letterhead. :D

    ^ :D

    Kind of. It was supposed to be 41642-8 but I couldn't get them all into the space. I randomly chose to delete the 6. If you are a LOST fan you would get it... if I had left the 6 that is. In that show 4, 16, 42 and 8 are part of a string of significant numbers, with 8 being the most important. It really doesn't matter anyway since you can barely read them at the reduced size.

    Aah, man! They're too good, just too good!!! They're all great, but I love the retro rocket and the shuttle... and that last one. :adore:

    I'm in awe of the designs here. They all look so good! I have an idea, but my technically feeble mind is preventing me from executing it. I was thinking of 3D-ish "TrekBBS" borgified lettering. I'm thinking stylized would look best. Feel free to have a go at it.

    I'm going to say that these are by far my favorites and if I had to choose between them, I'd go for the second one.

    I have made a decision on the poll. I am going to do one. But I want to be sure everyone understands that this is not a competition poll. I am just want to gauge what people's tastes are on the subject. I am curious as to what you are more attracted to in terms of style and look. :bolian:

    I will posting the poll after 6pm EST on Wednesday, September 22. Any logos posted in this thread before 6pm EST on that day will be included in the poll. Cool?

    (And remember, this is for fun and has nothing to do with the administration of this board. I know I am repeating myself but don't anyone to misunderstand and think the PTB are actually looking for a logo.)

    ^^ That's going to be a monster of a poll, good idea though. :)


    Here's a couple more of mine:

    Yep! :rommie: I have already started gathering everything together so I don't miss anything. We will probably have thirty entries... maybe forty. It should be fun though to see them all together in one place.

    Is this now becoming an official logo? Or still just for fun? Are simple animated flash logos acceptable? I find them easier to make than gifs
