    1) What is the exact name you would like in your logo?
    ElPwno. I really like the idea of having "El" vertically before the P in Pwno

    2) What is your website address (ex: http:/site .com/; Site Name)?
    N/A, Since the logo will be from where I base the background, etc.

    3) Description of your website or business:
    A gaming YouTube channel, with a minimalist, simple, modern design. (I´d also like worn out typing.)

    4) Search the Internet for any logos/designs on the web that you feel convey
    the style you are looking for?

    http://logopond.com/gallery/detail/73750

    5) Requested size of your logo:
    I think maybe high resolution so it looks good on 1080p videos, your call, though.

    No, and I really prefer it to be only text.

    Simplicity, fun, and experience.

    12) Where will your logo be used (print, website, etc.)?
    A YouTube channel, Gaming network accounts, and videos on the channel.

    13) Do you have other info or links you want to share?
    I like Technology references, like white noise and SMPTE bars.

    Yes That´s pretty good, only I do not like the outline color combo, but it is very well done! Maybe change it to just red or blue? Thanks.

    Also, If it is not too much trouble, could I ask for two versions, one like that and a worn-out one?

    Thank you CovertPea, those are amazing. I really appreciate all of this, guys. Really liked the "l" morphing with the "P", nice touch.

    Also.. something I should've mentioned before... The name of the channel is ElPwnoGaming, so you can use that too if you like. And the slogan is "Watch the geek each week." Just throwing those facts out there in case they help.

    what is "ElPwno" - a name or abbreviation?

    A name. "El" being the spanish article for "the". "Pwn" being a popular term wich comes from the mispelling of "own". And an o for it to sound nice.

    Glad you're happy with it.
    Attached is the zipped file containing 2 sizes of it in jpg and transparent pngs.
    Let me know when you have it so I can remove it from the forum.

    Cheers

    Ok, Thanks CovertPea, thing is, I tested it and had a little problem, The "worn parts" on the pngs are white. I suppose maybe making it not "worn" would solve this or maybe cut off those parts, whatever is best for you. Here is the test: (Sorry for the music, I forgot it and rendered it that way.)

    Also, while experimenting with the logo to fix the problem I kinda came up with a things I think look good for it. I wanted to ask for a couple of things:
    First-off I'm Really sorry for being so bossy and exigent, I just wanted to make sure it is all professional-looking.

    1) Capital "E"
    2) An all-black version with "gaming" and "watch the geek each week" transparent.
    3) Same as above but all-white

    Thank you so much to all of you. I feel so grateful... I think what I replied on this site wasn't enough but there haven't been new posts in which I can help. If there is anything else I can help with please let me know.

    Wow.. too... much... awesome... I love it, but you see... I really needed something simple, for the videos, If i have your permission, may I use it later for something else?

    Use away.......

    May I ask why only simple due to video, I would imagine it would only be on the opening frames?

    Well, I, personally, always get tired of seeing intros every time I watch a video, and it being only uniform, transparent text lets me put it in once the video is already started so people who have already seen videos do not have to skip anything and just ignore it and just to represent the channel. I think it is more of a personal opinion than an actual necessity. In the other hand, sophisticated logos and those with big images, I like to see more on webpages, or the channel's home in YouTube's case.

    Like you say, each to their own :D
    If it were my video (if I even knew how to do it) I would have it permanently showing in the top right hand corner (again if it were possible) like a stamp on a letter; if you get my drift?
    BTW the blue background would be replaced by whatever was showing behind, only used it to make it stand out

    I'm 100% sure Lady S (CovertPea) will see you right
