Did you not like my shirt?

...or is my house on fire?

Maybe we should just Nascar it and use all the logos. Would make for some pretty sweet jackets.

(It is Greek (and therefore) it cannot be read.) <- Latin Title Text

Would it be allowable if we had our own Latin phrase with our logo? Or am I thinking about this to much? For the sake of conext - "If this ring will make us brothers - what will destiny do?" is what sparked this line of thought . It also might help point a direction of thought design wise, as we could incopreate it as part of the design. Not all a bad thing since we have so little to go on right now.

Some Exsamples:

• Sic itur ad astra - "Thus you shall go to the stars"
  
• Ex astris scientia! - "From the Stars, Knowledge"
  
• Suos cultores scientia coronat - "Knowledge crowns those who seek Her"

Preferably latin not used from existing (be it real or fictional) institutions (such as the above), and not from Google Translate to negate the risk of unknowingly making a fool of ourselves in latin.

Loving 2C on the top (and variations on it).

And no, NOT because I totally also had that Idea and was miffed that someone else did it before me.

Heh, glad to see my first submission was classified a joke. :P

But that's okay, it was rubbish! Here's something I whipped up using other peoples ideas instead.

I liked the rounded edges of the 'D', but I also preferred the straight contrail like in Levi's images. Anyway, my evolution.

Yay ms paint!

I'm really digging A1 and its variants, but seriously, it's ridiculous how many of these are really awesome. I think the DBO patch jacket is a cool idea to get all these shared with the community!

Obviously I'm partial to the ones I had a hand in or submitted tweaks to, A4 & B7.

I also love the tilted-swoop of A3, as well as my version of it:

The one that surprised me was E6. I can't believe I didn't notice it before. It's so simple, yet so clearly Destiny.

I gave it one last shot with the b.org logo.

Does 4A count as having the BO logo in it? I really like that one. 3A is cool too.

Looking at this matrix is a really useful way to see the range and breadth of designed suggested, and I spotted a couple that I rather enjoyed but forgot about. One in particular is I5 which I think referring back to the original thread - Kanbo proposed.

Along with its real simplicity, i liked the thought of something rising over the horizon. This attempt below is quite different but I think it's important to note that the idea was generated from his.

In the sketch below, the grey blob is a suggestion of land but it's a quick and dirty version just to demonstrate.

Any input welcome!

I'm reposting a selection of my entries here; these are the designs I feel happiest with (after iteration and revision). The grid above I feel doesn't do justice to the designs since the originals were posted with a large amount of transparent padding around the image, so I now offer them to you sans-padding (for the most part), and sans-colour so that they can be evaluated in their purest form.

Type A, black on white

Type A, white on black

Type B, black on white

Type B, white on black

A3 was sort of what I was going for in D8, but with the ship going round the other way! That said, the extended contrail does make it pop a bit more.

FWIW I really dig E1

(also: whoops, I bumped the other thread, which is why I needed to post in this one. My bad)

I really like A3, E2, and G5.

E1 - kapowaz's best logo in my option. It scales nice and doesn't completely lose the cityscape. It of course also retains the b.org logo. (I love the badge or patch style one, but I just don't think it works as well as a logo. It would look dang good on a shirt or as a phone background though!)

D9 - ya, ya I picked one of my own. I'm liking it more and more, it might need some adjustments for really small sizes but I think it holds its own well.

Coming from the direction of logo/practicality first, and cool-factor later, here's what I think could work, given the guidelines from the TPTB...

* E1/G3 - but the cityscape could cause problems at lower resolutions, and putting a larger container around the B.Org logo makes the core of the logo relatively smaller =/ (at least if scaled to the current logo)
* A2 - of course, if nothing were to change :P
* A3 - angled base logo with the ship/contrail connection to Destiny is nice, though the ship itself could be made smaller or less detailed
* G4/E6/G6 - I actually like the centered logo and the sphere border which isn't too much wider, and the simple outer dot/traveler is sort of Destiny-related and a teaser
* I5 - An interesting take, very simple, but missing a clear BO logo reference =/
* D7 - rounded D variant of this is nice; similar to G4 regarding border, but the D left side gives the Destiny connection

Concerns:
* contrail/ship through the ring - like kapowaz, I find it jarring. The implication of the sphere is that it's round surrounded by a ring, so it comes off more like an optical illusion than a logo =/
* text within the logo - without variants that don't include text, it's more suited to a logo variant than the base logo, unless the text IS the logo (like the big D) (but not too much text; letter=shape)
* multi-coloured/layered - too much going on, especially if more than 2 colours (incl black)
* horizontally flipped B.Org logo variants, or rotated too much - I don't think they're as easily recognizable; slightly rotated isn't as bad

Other comments:
* Border/framing ideas are great to keep on file if the logo inside can be adjusted to whatever's chosen
* Traveler damage & cityscape I think are elements better applied to larger variants than base logo due to their detail

Disclaimer:
All of the above is IMO as a graphic designer/developer. No offense intended for any existing design (heck I'm critical of my own :P), just honest thoughts given the guidelines put forth by TPTB. :)

Two new variants which put the DBO text at the foot instead of at the top, with some more detail (I may well experiment with the shading there — originally it was going to be solid white/black, but it might lend itself well to tri-colour logos).

Edit:

One last one before bed:

And finally… let's just keep it really simple, eh?

E10 for me. That way you can always put the text "Destiny.Bungie.Org" underneath if you chose too.

E9 is my pick. seems legit.

Hey saw this on Facebook.

What I drew from the current popular submissions:

Either typographical or too detailed

The one I see a lot looks too close to the ABC logo, unless the destiny team is ok with that.

I don't know much about the game yet but I decided to do some rough blocking instead of working in illustrator, I would put too much time into it

Anyone that likes my design direction

STEAL MY IDEAS!!!!

Just like the destiny guys said, this is a collaboration, not a competition. I don't really have the time to do a detailed job in Ai, but I would like to see a more graphical approach to a typographical logo. And don't get me wrong, I love typography.

Use all or part of my concept, make it your own!

Here are the ones that I didn't like at all:

A1 (It just looks too "industrial" for me. This also applies to D10 and I1)
E5 (Are we just trying to mimic Home Box Office? Also applies to I4, E5, G7)
B1 (What is this?)
7C (Can barely see it)

Here are the ones that stood out to me the most:
E1
C3
E4 (Although it kinda has the Bungie swoosh and doesn't have the BO logo)
A7

And in regards to logos with the "rocketship with circular trail". I don't know, it just seems too Bungie Aerospace like. :/

Meh, there's my two cents.

Alright. So I don't have a scanner nor one big enough to put this into one, but I took a picture instead. Below is a link to the picture of ideas I had for the logo. Please let me know what you guys think. I am very open to critiquing. I understand it's a bit dirty, but it's a rough draft. My B's are horrible looking, I know, but this is just the first draft of what I was thinking. The bottom one with Bungie is what I was thinking about for the logo.
Thoughts are welcome :)

I did some researches, lemme know if there's something you like (:

Just click here for the image Thanks ill be sending more!

How about something like this? Only with more detail, I whipped this up in paint. DBO is incorporated in the two center lightening bolts and the circle of course. The top circle could be the Traveler to signify it hovering over humanity, or the large circle could be the Traveler as a backdrop.

here is a version with no bg im sorry about that.. here it is! Image

Hey!, i'm new, i'm from b.net.

I just made this tattoo-like thing, i don't think it's much of a logo, but you can use it if you want to make a new logo.

My faves are as follows.

Non-Bungie.org logos

I doubt these will be used as the official one, but I love them regardless.

B3 and J3 are awesome.

Also like this newcomer:

My favorite without the O is C9. Just great. It won't surprise you that I also love H5.

Want each on a shirt now.

Bungie.org logos incorporated

First, ones that I think are great, but not necessarily as a logo.

C4 is fantastic. Loses a lot in smaller sizes, though. Must have that patch.

I also love a late variation of E7

The creme de la creme

The big D's rule, especially the first one--D7. It's so perfect.

Although I had a guiding hand in D9, it ended up looking a tad cluttered. I can't help but wonder how it might look if took the D away, similar to this later effort:

(Sorry, the rubber pencil still stops me, but I could get used to it.)

Finally, there's A3, which is great. I can't decide whether I like the fact that I don't quite recognize the B.org logo, but it's a nice (literal) twist. Hat's off.

My favorite is probably still H4, which I was finally sold on because of how it looked in black and white (J6). The J6 version has a bigger b.org logo, though, and loses a bit of its Marathon evocativeness.

Great work all around.

Here's a quick sketch of what I was thinking:

I wanted to use the elliptical path to give some depth to the image and to represent a planetary orbit while also giving it a vague appearance of incorporating the bungie.net logo.

Hi Guys,
I have come up with a few concepts. Hope someone likes them :) & if not it was fun anyway. There are 3 concepts on the 1 photobucket page.

http://i1150.photobucket.com/albums/o610/Unrelenting_Fork/DBO-Concept-1.jpg

Also for the ones currently showing, I like 5F & 5G from the top section.
The just seem to work. Though so many of the images are great, it was really hard to choose, so many talented people out there :)

Cheers

Im new hear, Heres my first design.

If you look very closely the logo resemble an alien face
If you turn the logo 90 degrees, it resembles the letter "D"

DBO Hunt:

A5- This Design will do great for a t-shirt but not so much as a logo
F5- Another good example of logos without the use of text

Here is my submission

I made a recent draft based on a few idea I've seen kicked around.

Based on the Marathon logo, wish I had more time to flesh it out a bit.

Food for thought. I like a lot of these designs, but one thing is bugging me about many of them. There is the reoccurring theme of a halo shape in a good portion of the designs. A halo is a very recognizable symbol, one people may associate with Halo. I don't feel like a halo should be apparent in its logo. It might just be me, i never was a Halo player. DBO is unique and i think its symbol should reflect that, and i'm sure it will regardless of what icon is used. good work all.

H7 is a good one but I think E2 is better if it incorporated the DBO letters either as part of the D or the O.

Was a consensus reached? I think I speak for all people who've contributed here in saying that we're curious to see what has been decided.

I started this one and ran out of inspiration for it.... maybe some one else has ideas...

Hey guys, this is my first time posting here. I came up with one concept design so far for the logo. Haha, feedback's always appreciated, so if you see something you wanna change, just tell me, and I'll check it out :)

Here's the link:

Hope you guys like it!

Am I being stupid? How do you upload an image to this thread?

Hi,

Just some designs I thought could progress this topic. Keep it clean and simple.

Thanks

…they pull me back in.

So, at the eleventh hour I have another candidate for this whole logo thing. Here it is:

I've made a few other variations (including the mission patches from before) which you can see here.
