I know,This is not a logo wich can be used inside a player.But it can have his place on a site.

Anyway SLoB,I still have to submit my last skin and very soon I will post new screenshot in the skin thread just to take more ideas before releasing it.And after that I will have plenty of time designing logos(Cliff,prepare yourself) :D

Thats a cool design. I think it would look sweet if you made the "inset" a clear glass with dark text and a drop shadow falling off the back side of the glass and maybe give the whole thing a few degrees of rotation!

Just a thought....Nice work though!!! :D

the red "display" looks so good, I´ve seen something like that in an old skin for sonique- solaris http://customize.org/sonique/skins/6139
haven´t seen that so often somewhere else so I wonder if force field is also known as
vendicator?
:wink:

@Mudslung :D
Thanks!I will try your idea.I finished my last skin 'Symbiot' (still don't know if I am going to name it this way) and I was thinking of designing other new logos as soon as I have some time.

Thanks ALAS! :D
No,I am not Vendicator.Solaris is a Sonique 1 skin and I only skinned for Sonique 2.But I remember this skin now and maybe,in some way,I was inspired by it.Well,I don't know.

Before designing a new skin,I always collect from the internet pictures of real radio player for cars like Pionner,Sony,Alpine,Roadstar,etc... just to picture an idea.Then I merge the best designs in one skin and make a LOT of modifications so that nobody recognizes any of the radio brands.
Symbiot,for example is a heavily modified design of an Alpine radio.

Well,I told you my secret. :wink:

its always good to get reference pics from other skins and real players, checkout Walpha, that was recreated from scratch using an Alpine 9831R as source
