• × Nalos: no
• × Sephiroth: no
• √ NachoMan: I LOVE IT
• × Lemon Demon43: no
• × Killer Banana: no -- Nacho^Talk 22:53, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

We all know that Nalos used MS Paint, but his logos don't look it. That's why we don't criticise him for not using a professional program. (I don't think anyone's actually used a professional program yet.) -- 22:58, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

yeah you know thedenzel he does -pmelondemon43y 22:59, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

i used The Gimp. -- Nacho^Talk 23:00, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Skully uses The Gimp on special occasions. -pmelondemon43y 23:01, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

If I wanted to make a logo I'd use The GIMP, but I have no ideas. (Don't bother giving me any; that's plagiarism.) -- 23:06, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

If somebody lets you use their idea with their permission, and/or if you cite it, you can use things without being plagiarized. DUH! They call me Big T BLOOD 23:18, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Result

I must say I'm surprised at the large number of logos people are creating. I've gone and added 6 new logos to the rotation; that's not to say that the other logos are complete crap and will never be used, but these are the ones that stood out to me. The new logos are:

1. TheDenzel's video game logo
2. Im a bell's logo
3. JCM's clamburger logo
4. Nalos' bear logo
5. Nalos' duck logo
6. Zoo977's logo

And now for some comments on some other logos:

1. Mtp1997's logo was very close to being accepted, but the "your picture goes here" text screams "default font". If the font was changed to something different it would most likely be better.
2. JCM's other logo wasn't chosen as TheDenzel has stated the he doesn't want his image in a logo. If this changes at any stage, the logo will have a better chance.
3. Remember to keep to 150 x 150. TheDenzel's current The Cheat logo is slightly bigger than this and part of the logo is cut off as a result (if you want to fix this, Denzel, just stick the new version on this page)
4. Sephiroth: fancy graphics and 'WUW' a good logo do not make. I was close to choosing your last logo, but I felt that Nalos did the whole rainbow thing a bit better.
5. Skullbuggy's logo had a good idea but could be improved if it was somehow made more relevant to the WUW and if the yellow was made transparent (to account for any future background changes).
6. TheDenzel's other logo was considered but I decided it was either that one or the video game one (the video game one won out). Maybe it could be fancied up or something, I don't know.
7. Remember that it's always preferable to have "Wiki User Wiki" in full as opposed to "WUW" except where style allows in very exceptional cases (such as Nalos' MSpainty logos and TheDenzel's video game logo). It also seems like "A wiki for the users!" has become the de facto motto for the wiki so feel free to use that.
8. I'm going to go through the logo rotation at some stage and make sure they all have borders where appropriate: generally a border makes the logo look way better, so stick borders on any future logos so I don't have to do it. Of course, if you think it looks fine without the border, that's okay too: if I think it needs a border I'll just cram it on later.
9. NachoMan: get out.

Anyway, keep those logos coming: I do check here quite regularly so don't be fooled into thinking that I never look here ever. (The suggestion box is another matter, however.) - Super Sam 13:22, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Are you serious about my last one?! That one was a joke to everyone asking for a bearhug. It was Huggy Bear from Starsky and Hutch. :P Lex 13:32, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Super Sam, I think my The Cheat logo is cut off as to my own failure but I'll look into it and see what's up... -- 00:09, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Also, I'm considering taking off my TheDenzel logo but I just want to see if TheDenzel actually wants it or not first. 01:39, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Also, I keep getting a bearhug. Where's the rotations? 01:44, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

It says at the top of the screen. {points up} -pmelondemon43y 01:57, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Bah I liked Nachoman's logo put it up plz Shadow Scythe 03:24, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Round 2

Can I make some more logos or have I done my fair share of logo-making?- nehnjaduehk 02:08, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Thar be no limit to logo making. - Super Sam 03:58, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

So, when's the new results? 00:47, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

yes comrad we all want to see doggie on the logo TheCheese 02:08, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Negatory. Miss Peach

Dasvedanya, doggie. They call me Big T BLOOD 02:13, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

YES YES LETS ALL JUST PUT ALL THE LOGOS UP BUT DOGGIE I NEED TO COOL DOWN SOMEONE BLOCK ME BEFORE I VERBALLY ASSAULT SOMEONE TheCheese 02:16, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Result

So after being prompted by JCM for the second time I could no longer ignore his constant presence. Rather than doing something boring such as, say, uploading some new logos, I decided to create some sort of futuristic logo viewer. Right now it's really basic and just shows you each logo along with some information but I'm hoping to expand it a bit, mostly so I can upload new logos easier. Anyway I've added three new logos, being TheDenzel's textual logo, Ninjaduck's The Cheat logo and Y2K's stop sign logo. Others I were close to choosing were:

1. TheCheese's logo. Was leaning towards "yes" but then realised "what was I thinking" and leant back towards "no". Maybe public opinion could sway me back.
2. JCM's Disney logo. It's off center but if you fix that there's a chance it could be used.
3. JCM's pencil logo. I was going to use it until I realised how crap the pencil looks.
4. Other logos that deserve mention are Ninjaduck's second logo, TheStick's logo and Im a bell's logo. I just felt something was missing from these three but couldn't quite put my finger on it.

Anyway enjoy. - Super Sam 09:37, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

What about mine? Brerose 23:17, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Yours was a bit too plain. - Super Sam 04:22, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

How about mine? They call me Big T BLOOD 20:36, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

You made yours after I'd already done Round 2 stupid. - Super Sam 04:53, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Are the things missing in the other logos Homsar? 15:03, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Round 3

• × Sephiroth: "If you can't do any better than that, kid, you're gonna lose!"
• × NachoMan: Take that thing down already! IT BURNS MY EYES!!
• × Lemon: Oh, great. More bearhugs.
• × Killer Banana: First of all, it's not big enough. Second, everything else.
• × Tahu: I'd tell you what Super Sam told Sephiroth if you didn't already know.

Others will be reviewed in due course. -- 04:35, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

What are you talking about? Lex 21:15, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

The line I reviewed you with was a quote from Home Alone 2. -- 05:10, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Other Discussion

How come when I'm an IP, I can see the logo rotation just fine, but when I'm logged in, where the logos are suppost to be, there's just a blank? 大棒さっさと棍子 02:12, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Because Clamburger has more than two problems? belstrnnmmvnmn 03:54, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Because you thought it would be a great idea to overwrite the logo with your own, that's why. - Super Sam 04:07, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Change Bearhug into Turkeyhug please!- nehnjaduehk 17:01, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Also I dont see the duck logo either.- nehnjaduehk 17:05, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

What does off-center mean? And not one mention of my Wikipedia logo, there's something horribly wrong. 12:52, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

It's not in the center. There's more blue space to the left than to the right. As for the Wikipedia one, I did consider it very briefly but decided against it because the Wikipedia globe is pretty plain and boring compared to the other logos we have. - Super Sam 13:04, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

OK, I get it. I fixed the other logos so now they're perfect. 14:58, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Seriously, what do you think of them now? 23:40, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Oh hey JCM, did you just say something - Super Sam 09:11, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Super Sam why are you not a reservist there must be some kind of mistake TheCheese 09:13, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

I noticed that, when I use Avant instead of Firefox, each time I mouse over the logo a new one loads in place of it, and another one again when I mouse out. (I wouldn't be surprised if this happens in IE, Opera and TheWorld as well; all four of them are based on Trident.) -- 05:12, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

I briefly tested it in IE 8 and it didn't happen (although there was another unrelated style problem), but what would have to be happening is that the image is refreshed when the mouse is moved on and off for some reason. - Super Sam 06:56, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

How did...

Ninjaduck add to the rotation when he isn't a mod? Brerose 18:40, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

He's God. Lex 18:41, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Once you've got a logo in the rotation you can update it (to allow for things like holiday logos). - Super Sam 02:51, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Hey

Dont worry about the size, this should be a logo Lucian Summers 22:45, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

I vote for this one. The thing ^WatCh 16:43, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Worry about the size, even though it looks vaguely like me. --Homfrogtalkribs 15:32, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

It needs a "WUW" or a "Wiki User Wiki" header. - HunkOfJunk 16:52, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Can logo

Can I get a logo to stay as that logo?

I made a logo

I'll upload it on the art page I'm making. ~Empress Sinta-tan

New logos?

Yeah, Supes just adds any he likes whenever he likes. belstrnnmmvnmn 21:23, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Clover has a suggestion~

This, this I just threw together... it's a Nine Inch Nails reference in case you didn't know. Clover ^{echoing the sound} 02:31, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

I like it, personally - it works well. Ch'mera

Logo Rotation

Does anyone know the extension script used here to make the logos change? I'm interested in using it. --‪‪‪X66x66 18:23, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

I created it myself. You can download it here. I will offer no more assistance than what is offered in readme.txt: you're on your own! Super Sam 12:37, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

Thank you! It worked perfectly --‪‪‪X66x66 16:51, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
