Blog: Need some ideas for logo
•December 9, 2009 • 2 CommentsYou see that big multi-colored blob up there? Well, I want to replace that with a logo that fits the theme of this site… but for the life of me I cannot figure out what to put up there.
So I am coming to my readers – do you have any ideas of what I can put up there? I need an image that is 760 x 151 (or one that scales nicely to that size) – I would like it to blend in more and be LotRO themed. I just can’t wrap my mind around what to do about it though.
If you have any ideas please post a comment here, if you are good at photoshopping then you can put an image link up too and I will give full credit if I use it.
Thanks,
