Re: Stitching for Charity 2012
It's good with me! If anyone has any objections (hehe, get it?) then say so. I said no logos because I wanted to get away from just title screens of games. I don't think of the objection as a logo, but as an integral part of the game.
I think the quilt should remind the buyer of favorite moments of games.

That "Must be a scene from a video game" seems a bit annoying...
It'll be really hard to do modern games like that...

Re: Stitching for Charity 2012
What did you have in mind then? The portal aperture science logo would be fine. Most of the time people use their heads and think of something good. I just don't want something like this:

when you can do something like this:

I probably didn't word that right then. How should I word that in the first post?

Re: Stitching for Charity 2012
I've picked my game, but need advice on the image to use. Any of the two I've posted, or something completely different? I still need to clean them up (and I'm not very good at that), but I would like to hear other opinions before I decide on anything.

Re: Stitching for Charity 2012
Not as hard as you'd think! I used scenes from the games for all my squares, even the "modern" ones. The Rinoa was taken from the opening sequence to FFVIII, the Shiva is the actual in-game summon cutscene from FFX and the Great Fairy was a brief cutscene from Link's POV in OoT. It's reasonably easy as long as you can get a clear image to work from.Lord Libidan wrote:That "Must be a scene from a video game" seems a bit annoying...

Re: Stitching for Charity 2012
Would my Aperture Science square be considered a logo? I've already signed up under 2 other games, and was holding off signing up for Portal. It's fairly plain and I don't want to take the Portal "spot" from someone who could be more creative.
On second thought, I'll just try and come up with another design for Portal

I changed my mind while writing it too. I have that many ideas! I may have to force myself to do more than one...
