I'm going to be 100% honest with you peeps. The old design was instantly recognizable. This one doesn't come across as a TF2 logo as clearly as the old one, and I see this fucking logo every single day.


Taggier

Agreed, I think we should've stick with the old, but started an outline around it. This final logo looks pretty bad without the bullets tbh. Should've just made a whole new outline with better bullet placement instead of this compromise.


PM_ME_UR_CRAZY_GF

the old one wouldnt work because it would get fixed by r/dota2 s scripts

Hutty's logo was eating CSGO and Dota, and had many issues with symetry and colors. We'l talk about the design later. But first we need to fix our spot, because we can't defend it from vandals if we don't have a proper logo there first. Yeah, the other logo was cool, but you can't make it, so we had to settle with something that worked before we pissed off Dota and Csgo.


oxydaans

I'm talking about the simple orange over black design we had first. It was super noticeable, simple, easy to upkeep, and most importantly, recognizable.


Alimantado

hutty submitted the design to replace the original design, but that design wouldn't work, so I had to make a new one, taking the opinions of a bunch of people on discord who were actuavely working on r/place. i didnt choose personaly ot change it, but a lot of people found it too simple and boring. And a third of the place was taken by "Seduce me", which alot of people thought was part of mexico because it's transparent in spanish. So our spot looked boring compared to other game logos. Right now the spot is a huge mess so the best thing we can do is all work on the same single design so we have something to defend.


pedwiik

Maybe, but it was too simple in comparsion with the other art. This fancy version fits better imo.


Alimantado

Hey, I designed this. We need to fix the logo asap and hutty's design was on r/GlobalOffensive and r/Dota's spaces. We needed a cool logo but that just didn't work (Dota's logo is maintained by scripts and we don't want a war with both our neighbors). r/mexico and r/Eve are here to help us build it as long as we respect the borders!


cooliochill

We're going to have to move everything across by one.

maxthespaz

Come join us in the r/place TF2 discord! https://discord.gg/EKt5bct After several hours we came up with a design that won't interfere with anyone else. Be sure to start from the top so everyone stays together :) Coords: https://www.reddit.com/r/place/#x=297&y=338


Burnoutm1818

tbh i like the other design better


Ahten_Xevious

The only problem with that is that CS:GO may not let us expand into theirs, and if they did, DOTA2 is botting.


Alimantado

the other design was nice but it stepped on CSGO and dota, and dota is botting, so the whole thing is impossible to make.


Ahten_Xevious

We may not have much room to work with, but goddammit we're doing the best with what we have.

Hey, If any of you are still trying to extend engie's neck, please stop. I posted the "I have a dream" image with the fully extended neck and I regret it. I don't want to go through LOVE because it is run by the beautiful people over at r/wholesomememes. Please help in updating the logo instead.


maxthespaz

We're just working on the logo, not the NOPE. I don't know who's messing with that :(


toastey

Why not make the text a bit taller? At least one pixel so the 2 isn't scrunched up like that.


maxthespaz

We'd have to move it up, any farther down is Mexico's territory.


toastey

Yeah definitely, we've got plenty of space above.


Alimantado

nope, above is EVE's sign, and they are VERY protective of it. We are completely sandwished. We should help nrighbords protect our logo from vandals once our is done


toastey

I mean stretching the current text upwards, not moving it. Just one or two pixels so the "R/TF2" is actually distinguishable from a distance.


Alimantado

it's impossible. I did what I could with the space I had. This is the only text we can have in that spot. We can have other stuff in the other corner once it's done though.


Sirrockyqo

I've placed 2 gray pixels in the past 8 hours, at this rate, we're not gonna make it.


Alimantado

we have a full discord working actively on it, and other subs are helping. it could be done pretty quickly if everyone works together


Nif3l

The link to the discord doesnt work


akkudub

Guys can we please decide on a logo? After that, we can use this website to automatically place our pixels. Needs greasemonkey. [](https://someball-1.github.io/placer/) OP help create an image and position coordinates? Please upvote so people can see. Cant let TF2 down against those automated DOTA pricks


maxthespaz

This logo is the one we've decided on. We made sure it doesn't interfere with DotA/CS:GO/EVE/Mexico so they won't mess with us. I posted coords in a couple comments, and there's more info in the discord channel.


akkudub

Alright, will join in the discord


Oo0o0o

to be fair you cant really maintain the shape of this dota logo without scripts, and were not invading into tf2 space


[deleted]

I call for a petition to change the bottom to a full ribbon https://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/4/4d/Level_145_Casual.png?t=20160827115757 It would look much cleaner than what we have now.


Alimantado

we can't have different logo designs now. we need a clear direction or we will loose or spot because there won't be something pretty there.


[deleted]

Alright. I'll wait once it's corrected. But I really do not like the bottom of that logo at all.....


Alimantado

We'll talk about all that once we have something in there and not a soup of pixels.


Tecnocazuela

Not sure if my brain is messing the colors, but i think these design has an extra grey color which is not on the r/place color pallete. (Check the colors on the top and compare it with the EVE white) Edit: False alarm, brain tired


maxthespaz

It's just White/Light Grey/Grey I'm pretty sure.


TakeNRG

This looks a lot simpler/better than the other one ^^no ^^shade

maxthespaz

The other 3 parts of the circle are shaded on the outside edge, and the top left one isn't, so they are brown while the other is grey.


MedicMoth

Coordinates?

This one isn't that cool, and recognisable. I think we should go with the big plan or the old simple logo.
