Made an old-skool demo! - Page 8

Zaxwerks 3d invigorator is a great plugin. I used it over the last several years with After Effects to do really quick, yet professional looking logos for many clients TV commercials in Las Vegas - it's slick and worth every penny.

Also for not being a big company (he's pretty much a at-home coder like many of us) - he gives excellent customer support.

Got an .iff version...? I'll put it in my store of logos on the 'to use' pile.

How about a 256 and 32 colour version Kitty?

DH · 09 November 2009, 21:55

Yep! There's 734 unique colours used in that image Kitty, far too many for what pmc can use

LOL!

Unfortunately yes, there's a few too many colours for me I'm afraid. The maximum will have to be 32 - no AGA 256 colour stuff just yet - We Are Retro (tm) after all.

Aside from all the discussion about maximum colours though I wanna say a big big nice one for making the effort to draw logos for me Kitty - really appreciated.

Slim down the colours, keep them logos coming and they'll be floating in demo parts really soon!

PMC,

Do you have a 3 letter abbreviation for Retro? Is it RET? RTO?
If not (in my opinion) you guys should decide on one, that way there are even more options for design as far as logos, sprites, bobs, pics, effects, etc.

No but I have thought about that before though and if we did I personally would vote for RTR

Hang on a minute - do I really need to vote...?

LOL. Me neither come to think of it.

Since Vortex + pmc = Retro I'd say RTR it is!

DH · 13 November 2009, 15:44

Does this mean 'Retro' has officially claimed the abbreviation 'RTR' for their old school demo scene group

If so, I can now get to work on those three letters

DH · 13 November 2009, 15:59

Sorry for double posting, but I want some views on this for the abbreviation

btw. Its just a 5 min job

so nothing to serious

EDIT: Or something like:-

Kitty · 13 November 2009, 16:55

How about a 2D version of the second one DH

DH · 13 November 2009, 17:13

Yeah, OK but these are just ideas for how the 3 letters can be combined together

Until I know from pmc, Vortex and the other guys/girls, it's just in the experimental stage

Here's something not quite as 3D, as I was busy with it anyway

Obviously, I would do these a lot better than I have, when the time comes round

Kitty · 13 November 2009, 17:27

Looks absolutely awesome DH but why so huge?

DH · 13 November 2009, 17:34

I create everything huge, it's far better to do that and scale it back to the size you require than to try and up-scale it, but then you'll already know those reasons

Everything I create is larger than my 22" widescreen monitor @ 1680x1050, that way if I like what I have achieved and with a bit of tweaking, it becomes a wallpaper too

Kitty · 13 November 2009, 17:53

Option for wallpaper is always an added bonus

lopos2000 · 13 November 2009, 20:52

Looks great DH.

Yes it does.

First logo of the three is my favourite - it kicks bottom, in my view.
