Lets take a lovely lesson into logos. Logo's are something which are suppose to be unique and compliment your company, site or whatever. They are a design piece which you use to identify yourself. Identity in any world is the most important piece of a company, site and such - they reflect your branding decisions, your maturity and most of all your style of site. Using such website like: cooltext reflects that you're a naive and not very mature individual, and if you had any chances of being professional in such a practice of the business world seeing a 'logo' which looks like a three year olds scribble on MS Paint then I wouldn't visit, cooperate or do anything related to your business or site. An identity can be made up of several things: Colours, Iconography, Typography, Word Marks, and many more. However the main center piece which brings it all together is a logo. Having a clear, concise and professional logo allows not just visitors to see how serious you are about your company/site it also allows for cognitive recognition for future encounters. The most powerful identities in the world are those which are Bold, Unique, Professional and concise, for example; Apple - may have changed over the years but that is due to their changing in values and with the design trends which have came about in their history, another Microsoft, same story there. You give anyone the Apple logo or the Windows logo icon they can quite easily tell you which company is connected to, simply because they're good and unique. Another reason not to use cooltext.com is so that you don't present yourself as an idiot. Good luck, with your concept of a 'logo' you may now show yourself out of the door and not come back :) Thank You, Chris - A person with great insight into company branding, colour association, and design trends. @No.W1 Came out with something quick for you :)

I have been running forums, and building them for clients for many many years. And this is what I have learned... If I were you, I wouldn't start a Gaming forum. There are millions of gaming sites/forums already out there, and the chances of your gaming forum being succesful is very, very slim. If you still want to start a gaming forum, you have to do double the work, you have to work harder then all the other people with gaming forums, because you have to make your forum very unique and very original. You have to stay up-to-date with all the news and updates. Such as, when a very important update has been released, you have to post it on your forum within about an hour, and also post your point of view about the update, and maybe a review. If you don't work harder then your competition, or don't make your site feel or look original/unique, then your "Gaming" forum will not succeed. First thing I would do with any new Forum, is buy a custom style/theme. A custom style/theme is a theme that no one else has, its built from the ground up just for your forum. That is the first step of making your forum original/unique, and having it stand out from your competition. But like I said, I wouldn't start a gaming forum, there are just so many gaming forums out there. Actually, when most people want to start their first forum, most of the time they make a "Gaming Forum". Thats why there are just so many of them already. If you need help with anything, with the forum or the server your forum is running on, let me know. I am always willing to help. Also, if you cannot contact me on WebFlake, message me on Steam. SteamID: TheTechGenius.Net Good Luck with your forum!
