I tried the old NES font but it was kind of short like the Tron font in the other one. I was going for something a little taller but I can do whatever y'all vote for.

What about the controller that is most definitely an NES controller?

It is a possibility as well. I don't know that much about copyright laws, but I assume if they can get you for something they will.

Changing the design slightly might help.

needs to be 400x50. It can be larger but keep in mind it's gotta look good when you shrink it down.

I just have one more stupid idea. If we use the 1 up mushroom as the period, and Chicken agrees the Mario can be used, I suggest putting Mario beneath the mushroom like he's jumping to get it (you know how he puts one arm up and jumps).

That's it, no more peanut gallery.

bullshite if we are going to put Mario in there we need blooper at the very least and probably bowser

Seriously I am fine with anything other than what we have already save for the dolphin raping.

actually using the NES controller is probably the best choice for us. Also from copywrite law:

game controllers and consoles:

These are considered functional elements of a game, so they are generally not copyrightable. Copyright does not protect useful products. If you come up with a unique system or device, it is possible seek patent protection. Patents protect inventions and processes that are nonobvious, useful and new.

Copywrite law does clearly state that the characters in the game are copywrited, so let's stay away from showing a mario or sonic, that would go against the law.. and I'm sure Chicken would appreciate we stay within the law.

So like I said, if you are going to change the period stout.. use something like the ? box from mario, don't use mario himself.

I like the first one, Stout. Like the colors as well. Maybe get the blue color in Tiger and the . to match the tron color blue...if that is possible.

Not sure if we can add Mario due to copyright concerns. That's the only reason I didn't add him. I would do it if Chicken is OK with it.



Maybe you can replace the G in Tiger with a mushroom?

Too bad we can't use copyright images. I could do a montage of gaming characters and put them in the letters like I did with mario here.

looks awesome except that Mario is clearly visible (which ure obviously aware of).

also might look silly and unrecognizable with 50 pixel height limit...

but i like where your head is at
