New site logo for mobile needed

[Thunderfall]

Could someone who’s good with graphics help make a new site logo for mobile for the forums? The one we have right now doesn’t look good under mobile.

Or should we try ask AI to create one?

I don't phone, but would this mean less wide?

I could certainly do you up something less wide...

 

[Thunderfall]

Yeah, looks like mobile version of the logo should be 250x100, per perplexity:

For **Xenforo mobile**, a **logo size around 250 x 100 pixels** works well for most website headers, balancing clarity and load times[2]. On Xenforo forums, users have reported good results with logos up to 451 x 68 pixels, but using a wide logo like that may appear small on mobile unless you adjust CSS to allow it to display larger[1][3]. One user found that an 800 x 130 pixel logo displayed well when styled properly[3].

I think the logo should just say “CivFanatics”.

[ninja'd - that may or may not make it easier...]

I'll have a look at a try I did earlier this year for CFC and see what's doable within those parameters. Shouldn't take all day.

This is what's already on hand - you might want to give me feedback as to your druthers. These could be ivory white background, like the Firaxis art I was working from, or transparent to the theme color, or even atop a slice of game background, if you want to supply something and think the result looks good...

 

[Buster's Uncle]

Here's a bare-bones, borderless, transparent background try w/o Olafhotep. 195x100.

I think it needs the upper part cheated left a little -it IS centered- but that would work, I think.

-Of course I'm not married to the Civ7 flourish, but you might should be...

 

[Buster's Uncle]

Here plain, 200x75, not quite as gold.

Cheated a little left, but still probably not enough, I see. -One spots stuff posted that one doesn't in the editor...

 

[Buster's Uncle]

...I could match sizes of text -or not- and put it on one line as you seem to have had in mind, but 200x would make it all pretty small. The shape of these two tries would also lend themselves, somewhat, to a game background, though those, while pretty, tend to run into legibility problems...

 

[Buster's Uncle]

--Actual 250x100, and a little golder...

 

[Buster's Uncle]

250 wide by 33 tall - bigger than I assumed, actually.

 

[Thunderfall]

Thanks a lot for helping!

Could you make a 250x100 logo with style as the current Civ6 style logo?
In similar style and font, except it should just say CIVFANATICS or CivFanatics, which ever looks better.

This one looks like would look good for the Civ7 style.

Good candidate for Civ7 forum style too

 

[Buster's Uncle]

I will do you up drafts of all you ask - this is part of the process, even when I work alone, trying stuff and seeing how it looks.

I currently like my last try best, now that I see it.

 

[Buster's Uncle]

250x30. Easy peasy.

 

[Buster's Uncle]

250x39.

I've got plenty more height space could be added, though not much horizontal unless the words get closer, but the size of the C could be fiddled some more. I don't really think the C here is big enough for the Firaxis 7 style...

 

[Buster's Uncle]

Same proportions, w/ the cheated left added that looks right to me, finally.

Were you just commenting, in your last post, not asking for something?

I see I didn't follow instructions on your first new request - I'll do a larger two-line arrangement 200x100. Won't take all night.

 

[Buster's Uncle]

Here's a simple crop of the excess text and nothing else but an autocrop and a resize for with - the width of "FANATICS" is the limiting factor, and distorting to fill the x100 height probably wouldn't look good.

-Back shortly w/ CIV centered/cheated...
