Nice.

I've been working on one. And it's being done the old fashioned way. No AI, a custom font that can be used elsewhere on here, so no chance of any licence issues or having to credit anyone. And it has to be scalable. And It's got to fit in a 337x91 image without any distortion, so no big flash highlighting effects, which is a bit of a bugger. So it has to be simple.

This is a work in progress. I just have to stop getting distracted.
Sofar.....

Just got to add a couple of bombs going bang. And a few tweaks.

Though most of the distractions I keep getting are new ideas on styling.

Second version meself too! :)

@Hardcoal

Yours looks cool mind, that would look really cool as a developer splash screen for a game or app! :)

I'm seeing it appear out of blackness of a screen with a jingle like the PS1 had!

You'll have to edit that link, as it's not showing.
Has to do with whatever built in support SFM has.
Had this issues trying to use google drive. I ended up using my dropbox account and using a shared download link with raw=1 instead of dl=shared.

yea it was chat gpt , but the final word is mine
eventually we all use technology.. either way
no one draws things by hand.

its the outcome that matters :)

i can design pretty well without chat gpt though.

Okay. This looks like it's going to be the one.

They're bombs going off. But it's a bit hard show that with the available space. And moving the parts of the bomb any wider loses the shape too much, which makes the parts hard to identify.

Control + Middle mouse scroll in to see.

If there was the space, then I would have moved them a bit more apart, and added some smoke.

The first thing that popped into my head regarding that is the old saying...

"Less is more"

Funnily enough, I used to have to say that to my ex-wife!!!  :P ;)

@Hardcoal I think you're being too clever with the complications mate. IMO it reads like SyntakBoom - not SyntaxBoom. And as for the curly brackets, well not everybody uses C based languages here, so best to remove them I think.

Apart from that I really like it! The first one with the darker background  8)

JD is making one, but he's got a bit on at the minute, give him time, he'll have it sorted 8)
