Mod branding

[Avalanche]

Hello,

I'm not a personal fan of the mods current logo/fonts. I think we can improve our branding. I switched the logo from Discovery Freelancer to Freelancer Discovery because visually it makes us seem Freelancer first, mod second. If we want to attract more people into the mod, I strongly feel the logo should be as shown.

Edit: However, we can put Discovery first if preferred of course. My main issue if with the fonts used. I have included a 5th image of what it would look like if Discovery is first.

Edit: Also, don't think about the space backgrounds. They're just placeholders.

I can share the Photoshop files for what I've made above to any dev if requested.

Very much a fan on the menu font change. Not quite as keen on the Storm's Wake text for the splash screen though.

Try to use any other screenshot, this one is from heavily modified client that is not available to being used at all

I, personally, don't like the name of the game before server (mod) name. Don't like this... Much. Very much. I can even say that I'm hater of Freelancer Discovery (ugh, gosh), but Discovery Freelancer fan.

There's nothing wrong with Discovery Freelancer. Keep it as is.

Yes the Storm's Wake text could probably remain as is. It's more the 3D "Discovery" which I personally am not a fan of.

Yeah, firstly thanks for the image in the first place, and any actual changes going forward will have different background images.

I, personally, don't like server (mod) name before the name of the game. Don't like this... Much. Very much. I can even say that I'm hater of Freelancer Discovery (ugh, gosh), but Discovery Freelancer fan.

I don't follow... You don't like the mod name before the name of the game but you contradict that by saying you hate "Freelancer Discovery" and like "Discovery Freelancer" ?

There's nothing wrong with Discovery Freelancer. Keep it as is.

I don't follow again. Nothing wrong with the mod in general, or the fonts used, or the order of the words?

The logo can remain "Discovery Freelancer" if that concerns you, but the logo fonts should still be reviewed.

3rd and 5th rocks, but they are vise-versa

Yah, my mistake. Corrected it.

This is a demo of what it could look like on any menu

I like this suggestion. Believe it or not, Freelancer is a brand. My guess is that there are thousands of Freelancer fans who have zero idea what Discovery is and wouldn't even make a connection if they saw the current logo somewhere.
