I realize the ghostbusters thing is a joke (and I laughed with much hilarity), but that logo (especially the big
(/)) was the first thing that jumped into my mind the instant I saw "does gzdoom have a logo?" Somehow I feel like a big red [NO] is more than appropriate
I didn't know there was an alpha logo though, that interesting.

Of course! That's the perfect concept base for the GZDoom logo!

Now to add a few fancy texture gradient filters, and lens flares everywhere, and it's finished!

Something in color and more Doom inspired:

The Z looks too much like a 2 in those ones I'm afraid.

Definitely a Z now. It's also more of a logo than most of the other "entries"*.
Entries in quotes because I'm not sure that it is possible to have entries for a competition that hasn't been officially launched.

I was passing by when I noticed this thread. Looking at the date, the last post is about 4 hours ago if I've set the correct hour, so I'll allow myself to give my two cents.
-Tormentor's : Excellent editing. However, even with the Marine sprite, the logo is somehow not yet Doomish enough. I think that's because the marine isn't as recognizable as, say, the shotgun or the BFG.
-SoulPriestess's : Very good editing, but this presentation has next to no potential. The style is there, but I feel we can do much more than that.
-I liked the big GZ/small Doom logos of the earlier pages; we should try to expand on this design a little more before ditching it.
-Baghead's latest has the most potential. Cool-looking, subtle yet obvious, and a nice little nod to Graf. I suggest you make the G and D a little squarer, more like the Doom font. I thought about putting brackets on the sides for decoration.
Hoping this thread isn't dead. (well with my reputation, if it isn't I probably killed it by being here anyway.)

However, making it very Doomish doesn't take into account the fact that it supports three other games.

I was going to say this but kept forgetting to!

Good point. Then again, a little more emphasis on Doom wouldn't hurt; the very name of the port is two thirds Doom after all. But if we're going to cover all three games equally, I think not putting anything would be a better idea.

Oh fuck no. Don't tell me the lulzwagon grew as far as
here !
Edit: Here are a few ideas, rushed in 10 minutes off the top of my head. Rather ugly, but oh well; I don't do ye youngsters' photoshot-thingies. Real Men use Printscreen and MSPaint.

- There are probably thousands of possibilities with other fonts, but I decided to stick with the Doom font for these. I didn't really work as for the colors; it's far from the best, but it should get my ideas across.

i keep seeing gzdoom
but it supports more other iwads than all the origional doom ones
umm, i am not really good at this kinda thing, but what about renaming gzdoom to something that fits in the other id+raven iwads aswell.
