Weatherton: First, can you please not post so much big images. Now the way it looks in the finalized version looks best, but I think you have the one angle messed up.
A spinning version wouldn't be neccessary. Also, just putting the words "Central" after it doesn't add or take away anything, because you don't get "Hi-Res" from that HR cube. If any text would be around it would be "Hi-Res Central" to spell it all out and I would reccomend not rendering the text in a 3d program because look that great. Also putting the text on a 3d plane doesn't work because it's going to look out of alignment with the website which is flat.
Is this it for logos submissions? Mine and Weatherton? And is mine dead? I'd love to see more ideas for an original logo because I don't like the n64 logo the way it is, and nothing against the creativity Weatherton and Kerber have done, but I don't really like their logos based on that. Plus I'm not a fan of ripping Nintendo's logo off.
I also still like the presentation of Kerbers more, I understand the argument of it not being real 3d, but it just looks smoother and is much easier on the eyes, and presents the concept better.
Either way this is just my opinion and I think the community that's interested in this site happenning need to lend their voices as well.
Vanit, if you can't tell I would really like to be the lead designer for this site. That doesn't mean that I make everything, but I would like to oversee everything and do the layout for the site. In the position of lead designer I would never do something like reject Weatherton's logo while everyone else loves it, to say I wouldn't be a dictator.
I don't know good code well (just html and css) though and I think for this project to work the site is going to need to be php/mysql and set up in editable databases so information can be updated and reflected on the site with most ease.
Here are more site concepts, I have another logo idea as well (which is very similar to this one I have already made) but I'm not sure if it would be worth it to even create. Anywho, as you can see in these images, the site would rely on some custom database work:
