Changing the Logo?

[abhimanyu0003]

Smogon should try changing the logo.

• I mean especially the icon which is displayed on webpages inside browser.
• I seriously dislike a Koffing for items, we can use simple dots or something.
• I love different mascots for the three different main sections (Learn, etc.).
• The Lugia-Ho-Oh logo can also be changed, from a traditional university badge, we can get something modern which describes that Smogon is a community specialising in competitive Pokemon battling and not just a university or some wikipedia.

Koffing = Smogon in Japanese, soooo (or close enough to Smogon), which is our mascot. The logo was only just updated recently. We're Smogon university and our logo represents that. Also the Koffing for items is cute personally!

Oh I didn't know any of that! Thanks a lot! I may change my mind after this, lol

Lol /me smack skylight

Smogon is Koffing in German

And nope. Never will those Pokemon be removed from the logo ever. I don't know the origins of Lugia and Ho-Oh on the logo but they're not going to change. Also the logo on the forums isn't finalized yet btw! (Major props to Zracknel for working on it~!) The old one is still on the main smogon page.

the drug and nazi communities of smogon also appreciates a mascot that can relate to our everyday struggle

Brb removing all of skylight's badges for that embarrasing display

Doesn't like the Smogon logo predate Smogon its self and go back to Azure Heights?

I was actually thinking of a redesign of the old university style Lugia and Ho-Oh. The badge is awesome and the sprites can be changed and a few things can be removed. Moreover, I never asked for the logo of Smogon Forums.

if you want to suggest a new logo/art/whatever, feel free to make it

you probably shouldn't just post asking someone else to do it
