Will a new logo be coming as well? The breadcrumbs still say Godus as well. (Godus > The Lowdown > It is time...) But I imagine there will be a new logo as soon as someone volunteers to make one.

Will a new logo be coming as well? Yes! Good point. We do need a new logo. I am open to anyone's suggestions. Everyone please feel free to mock something up if you think you've got a good idea. I've already approached echocdelta about the subject and am hoping they can help us whip something up. But I also asked them if they could make a banner for the Genesis section, so whether they will help with one of these things or both I am unsure. Will a new logo be coming as well? The breadcrumbs still say Godus as well. (Godus > The Lowdown > It is time...) But I imagine there will be a new logo as soon as someone volunteers to make one. Thanks for pointing that out! I totally need to go in and fix that right away.

Well I've replaced the strange godusbox logo with a quickly whipped up ridiculous looking placeholder, but at least it's not referring to godus anymore. I sincerely hope someone can come up with a decent logo. Who's a designer around here? 13thGeneral?

How do we feel about the color? Hold to match new logo?

It's a difficult one but nearly all God games I've played have a upon high view of the world? That or include aspect of our current 'main' games (I.e. With their own section) across the title?

I wouldn't go with a logo that's a combination of games I think. That risks getting outdated.
Maybe something simple like Thor's hammer. But that's just an example.

Something that a God game would have? Lightning bolts?

How about a logo based around the concept of a giant hand interacting with a little follower? That does seem to embody the modern godgame.

Consider the fact that a logo should ideally also be clear even if it's displayed very small. Like the ones that you see next to the bookmarks in your browser.

All good ideas - I was thinking the same things, which is good, as it shows we're all mostly on the same page with the symbology representing forum.
So, I'll take notes and play with it over the weekend.
Symbology; - Cloud(s) - Lightening - Globe - Hand of God - Totem - Halo - Petroglyph
Requirements; - Scaleable Size
Colors? - Blue - Green
