Default The new logo

ummm... I'm assuming that the new logo is only temporary, and will be changed?

Let me get this straight. From now on, the Abandonia logo will consist of:
1) An ugly, hard-to-read 3d-wannabe text that says "ABANDONIA" (or maybe "ABONDON'O", hard to tell)
2) an ugly, pixelated, primitive stick figure that looks like a 5-second job in MS Paint
and 3) a tiny, unreadable text with white letters on black background?
With 2) and 3) being a good 110 pixels away from 1), making you wonder if they meant to stuff something else in there but forgot?

What can I say? Bravo.

I like the logo. It been announced a long time ago, and I'm still wearing my t-shirt with the same logo on it at this very moment.

But the pixelated guys? I don't get it.

1 for example, i like the pixelated nerdy guys
2 the text is so "unreadable" cause you are retarded enough to have 23905823 x 239857239857 screen resolution.

and why would you flame it in the way you did, why not just telling "i don't like it", they tried to do it as best as they could + it's not final version anyways

oh, and the abandonia 3d logo is awesome

I don't mind the logo or the little guy but the site has one thing I don't like: it looks as if it only half loaded. True story: when I loaded the new site for the first time, I thought the servers were so hammered that it didn't load any of the background images because I couldn't believe they would use so much white with no lines to create structure.

It actually looks a lot like one of those very early websites, when people were running on 28k modems and couldn't load lot of pictures so you had mostly text and little else.

The title bar needs work though - the "dedicated to classic dosgames" line and the little guy shouldn't be there. It looks wrong - as if they just randomly put him there.

If you were to remove the "dedicated" guy (he gets repeated with the language thing anyway) and were to center the page, put black borders left and right, it would look a great deal better, more focussed.

Yes, the site looks very drab and bland at the point, but I presume it will be changed (especially since the adverts looks VERY bad on such an empty site).

...Hopefully.
