Well then it may no longer be the skin that was voted for! So the point of the poll was what, exactly?

It should complement our upcoming skin
Well yes of course it should, so I really think you should show the tweaked colours and icons before asking for Logo designs as the theme colours are a fairly important logo design consideration.
Re: New logo design contest
That skin is seriously garish.
Re: New logo design contest
I agree. Perhaps we should have a new Poll to decide if the winning skin is actually used? >:)
Re: New logo design contest
Sledger, stop whining. No one said the skin would be implemented 100% as is - in fact I even said somewhere that we'd tweak some elements. If you don't want to contribute, don't. So please move on.
Re: New logo design contest
Antony, you should be ashamed of how you speak to people on these boards. You set a very poor example indeed, as a moderator and as a representative of Xara.
Re: New logo design contest
Antony if you are not open to feedback, questions and suggestions or playful quips, please also make this 100% clear.
Re: New logo design contest
C'mon already. It is not a case of being or not being open to criticism. It is a matter of the same kind of tone in response that previously would have gotten members banned.
Feel free the criticize. But do it in a positive manner.
Re: New logo design contest
I'm not sure it's fair to ask people to produce a logo that matches the skin when the colours will change. It's a bizarre notion.
I haven't seen the poll, but I would expect that if I was asked to contribute an opinion from a set of choices that the chosen choice would either be the poll winner or the result of feedback from the poll.
I think Steve's point was reasonable and not offensive.
Re: New logo design contest
I have to agree with Steve and Paul on this one. If we knew what colours the boards will actually be it will make designing a logo much easier. Gary you should be well aquainted with Steve's quirky ( and at times down right evil ;))) sense of humour. Antony hasn't spent much time yet interacting with other members on the forums and perhaps didn't realize that Steve was making a joke.
I think everyone needs to step back a bit and draw some pictures :D
