Vip Contest: Create a Logo for nD.net (Submission until 18th June 2010.)

Hi everyone, we decided on making a contest in which you can submit Logos for neonDragon.net.
Even though nD.net exists for several years we still do not have a Logo,... so now it's your turn!
The Winner of the Contest will recieve VIP status for 1 month.
Submissions can be send within the next 2 weeks.
End of the Contest will be friday 18th June 2010.
After that we will decide on a winner.
Don't bother asking how we select the winner.
We will think about that once the process here is over.

Requirements for the submission:
- Do NOT put copyright material into the Logo
This includes copying stuff out of google also.
- Do NOT rebuild another Logo of another clan that looks 90% the same.
The point of this contest is that you create something with your creativity.
- This is optional but depending on what you submit, a Vector Art is prefered.


Good Luck


P.S.
Do NOT post useless crap like "cool" "lol" "awesome logo".
Those posts will be deleted without any discussion.
This thread is mainly for those who take part in this contest.

Sideinformation: What will be done with the Logo?
Well it can for example be added to maps that were created by members or admins from nD.
Also on the Page,...
And let's see ....

Now there's a "bounty" on it, we finally might get some good logos for the homepage, good thought admins.

This is the graphic I made, it's simple but effective using neonDragon green colour theme which the community has matured with.



Here's link to the Favicon version of this graphic I created.

This is how it looks in the web browser.


My alternate logo option for if your looking for something more creative is using the green colour scheme, I made the dot into a creature representing the dragon and the gradients used represent the neon of the dragon - The file type is .png the same as everyone who posted images before me. Enjoy.

Met requirements for the submission:
- I have used no copyright material into the Logo - Everything I created was done inside the software.
- I have come up with this idea myself from my creative mind so there is nothing like it and is 100% unique to neonDragon.net community.
- I have done work on vector graphics before, I'm able to make a canvas of any size all the way to A3 if you prefer meaning an identical copy of what your about to see, the background is of course transparent so wherever you decide to put this it would still look great.

The neonDragon.net I choose to have a pencil style as it shows the address of our community and this way it can be easily noticed separately from the actual logo grabbing the audiences attention while adding to the unique design, I felt the style of writing used for this had a dragon look to it which lead me to believe it was the best to use.



Finally, my third but personal favourite because it epitomises everything we are and if the dragon in the dot hasn't done it for you. The overall size here is bigger everything stands out more and seems better, I'm really going in for the kill! Here I have made the dot look more like a full stop by changing the size, I have put in the counter strike symbol globally known so people can tell that's the main game we play and I have used really cool dragon like font saying neondragon.net but decreased the opacity on gaming community so that it stands out, I hope you like everything. (The file is .png so the opacity means this will fit any page no-matter what colour your background is the graphic will look good).

The text was created using the Font "Calibri". Everything else i made myself.

edit3: I improved them once again. Now the lines are smoother.
