Many of you have probably noticed this design by now. As the topic implies, that is the canonical version of my logo.
I developed it a couple years ago. The details are a long story...
It started out when I wondered, "If I ever were to materialize monsters into a virtual world, what emblem would I stick on them?". I would occasionally think about that, but nothing came up.
Then I was looking at this texture map I had made for an animation's sky sphere: 1
From that, I cut out some of the segments to get this: 2
That was neat, but it wasn't good for low resolutions, so I simplified a bit: 3
Well, then I got Mario Kart DS. The resolution for avatars there is very low; in addition, it was a rather complicated layout. So I simplified, making it a circle and closing the gaps. The "eyes" were soon added to make it more distinguishing.
Of course, all the best logos have variations. A few I recently created:
Ninja
Discombobulated
My current Avatar Thingy (note how the first 9 digits of pi are encoded around the rim)
So, does anyone else have a logo? Variations thereof? Going to make one?
