    I'm a bit sad I wasn't around back in the day :P would be awesome to be a diablofans veteran
    Yeah this site used to have a really great community. I find things here now, however, to be a reflection of Diablo 3 itself: sad. I just played D3 recently for the first time in months and couldn't have been more bored. And doing that made me wanna check in to this place again but all the people I remember are mostly gone. No one really visits the off-topic or general discussions anymore either it seems.Mostly it's all just threads about character builds, how much DPS or GF players can get. Yeah this place, like the D3 game is a sad affair. You wanna see a kickass community for a game that's going to be something truly amazing, check out Star Citizen. Seriously.

    Being a veteran isn't that great. We had an amazing community built around the idea of this game which failed to live up to many of our expectations and thus many of us left. In hindsight, we probably spent so much time fantasizing about what D3could/should have been that no version could ever have lived up to our expectations.

    That said, we had some good times. I suppose it's a mixed bag, really.

    I'd be..... probably a flamingo. They get to spend lots of time in the water in warm tropical places. They love seafood. Get to fly. They are graceful. Life's just an awesome arial beach party when you're a flamingo.

    Flamingos also smell terrible. Have you ever been near a flock of flamingos? I couldn't stand it.

    ...

    I'd probably want to be a dinosaur of some kind.

    This should probably be moved to Off Topic, mods.

    From the way you write, I'm surprised to hear you're not under 17. You're... 30? Really? Interesting.

    Speaking as a former forum moderator (actually, Admin - on this forum, no less) I can honestly say that there is a lot of pressure on us to be consistent in our interpretation and implementation of the rules. Basically what I'm saying is, if they have to punish other less "real" fans for their inappropriate content, they have to punish you - the "real" fan - equally. It's only fair.

    The fact that you're now whining about your loss of privileges (and I guess your loss of face) makes you come off like a spoiled child who's had his favourite toy taken away because you were acting up to mom and dad and I find that hard to pity.

    EDIT: To explain why I feel comfortable judging you on your behaviour and the way you write...

    I am not an English major, per se, though I do excel in English and English Literature - but I am younger than you and can type far better. It's as simple as not substituting "u" for "you" and capitalizing at the beginning of my sentences. I feel like I can judge because I'm doing it correctly and you're not. Think of yourself as a criminal against the English language and me as a member of your jury.

    Also, I used to be a forum admin here and other places (along with modding other places). Life has gotten in the way, but I do feel like I have the skills and know-how, so that point is lost on me too.

    To everyone attempting to claim that there was no victor in the logo competition or that they deserve some sort of prize or compensation because no logo was chosen to represent DiabloFans.com, I say:

    What the hell, man? Why you trying to steal my thunder?

    The staff of DiabloFans clearly picked their favourite to represent the site and it currently adorns the top header of the page - just as it has for years.

    In other words, the winner is me and I'd appreciate if everyone else stopped trying to downplay that and complain that no winner was chosen.

    Bah humbug!

    I don't see trying to "slowly convert her into a video game addict" as being a healthy interest in seeing if an interest can be shared mutually.

    If you really loved her for who she is, you wouldn't be trying to change her.

    Well, this is my entry for the contest!

    I've tried to re imagine the original Diablofans logo, making it fresh and new, but keeping the old style on it.
    I worked on the shapes and the design for quite a bit. The colors are strong and diabloesque, and I've added a less crimson and more orange palette, like seen in the new diablo design.

    Shapes and patterns are very distinctive, so the silhouette can be easily recognizable from a distance, as it is with the current dfans logo.

    So, hope you like it!















    I love the detail in this one. Fantastic!

    Reconstructed the new face of Diablo giving me a lot of options to play around with.. here are a few..
    all 450x200px and layered vector.. I threw in a larger gray map to show the vector shapes
    if I have time I'll try to render a textured version
    also remade the runestones in vector, the circle is for unattuned for now
    remade the logo to match the D3 logo.. kept with the standard Abaddon and Blade 2 with a bit of custom work
    comments/ideas welcome please!
    Thanks!



    These are quite good as well, IMO.
