Logo Contest 2011
Hi, we’ve had various Ludum Dare logos over the years, but I think it’s time we got something new and shiny!
So we’re doing a contest! Make your Ludum Dare logo and enter it. Be sure to include a link to a hi-res version of the logo. All logos submitted will be considered as public domain gifts to the community.
The winner of the contest will get the honor of seeing the logo used to help promote Ludum Dare!
The contest begins NOW and ends Jan 31th.
(Judging will be decided somehow, probably a combination of public vote and what I like. We suggest linking to a 2000px wide image, or something like that. To make the logo useful, it should have transparency, so it can be placed on various types of backgrounds. If you want to enter multiple logos, just create an extra user account.)
Dock's Ludum Dare Logo - dock - Competition Entry
Super High Res | Super Low Res | Medium Res
I wanted to design something cool using the words Ludum Dare!
I was aiming for something legible that would look good in high and low resolutions, as well as in full-colour or in various types of mono. Most importantly, I wanted something stylish and flexible.

Quite like the 'built out of tiles' sort of look, but that red/cyan is rather too strong for me... So I think I'm rating the bottom right version on the first sheet (black+white with outline and some pixelation), which I think is a much nicer version
Interesting idea with the two perspectives, though the cyan and red look ugly together like that.
Black and white it looks nice, but the full-saturation opposite colors makes it kind of hard to look at.
I like the bold colors and the contrast. The 2-color versions don't work as well (It looks like you realized that with the grey background variants). The opposing angles on the diagonals create some nice tension, but maybe too much tension for me.
Very strong entry overall. Could work in a lot of ways.

Perspectives are clashing. But I think you are on to something
