I would like this forum to be all about Games for Windows Live ;) NOT!

I really like the layout and format... can we eventually have some more skins for members to choose from?
What about branding and logos?
Is the current format the branding we are using or do you guys want some ideas?
 
Ok, finally had some time to whip up a few test icons...
I did some lizards and a penguin just for "Gits and Shiggles"

If you bread the first and second Lizard their offspring should be just about what I had in mind! ":O|

(This was meant to encourage you! ":O}

Click to expand...
Not a bad idea... take Lizard #2 and add a little more horns and roughness... Maybe a hat?
 
Ok, then we'll keep the Mohawk, what about spikes and piercings?
Penguin tattoo?
 
Naw, we want to be cool, not scarry.

"It's a Fez. I wear Fezes now. Fezes are cool"
 
Wow, didn't expect that... Ok, one Fez coming up ;)
 
LOL, it's a Doctor Who reference. Please don't put a Fez on the poor penguin.
 
Dang, I was hoping you were going to be enthusiastic about it... back to the drawing board
 
I combined lizards as Daniel had asked. Here are some versions of the new lizard. And a rusty Penguin at the bottom​
​
Here they are very small:​

Now were talking Gecko!
How about giving the smooth and the rough some colour high lights red and blue and stuff like that!

Could we add a bit of shoulder to the Penguin and slap it with some Sargent strips? Could we see him with blood shot eyes? ":O}
 
  • Color Highlights
  • Penguin Shoulders
  • Sargent Stripes
  • Bloodshot Eyes
I'll get on that next week. Anything else?
Is the border important?
 
We could look at two Penguins staring at each other, reversed the gold and grey on the second one...here I'm thinking Shirts and skins, gamers in opposition type thing.
 
Yeah, I kinda like that...
Windows & Linux gamers
or should I say Windows vs Linux gamers
 
We don't have to let Windoze play, why should we!?
It could be Mint 14 vs Mint 15...":O}
 
We don't "Have To" but for now they are a huge competition... hence our guides... lets turn them to Linux
