Everything has a logo, if you see the My Computer symbol you're not gonna say "ooo whats that," anyone who uses a computer knows the icon. That's like a logo. If you see the AOL symbol, where on it does it say "AOL?" It's not even an A. It's hard to think of a logo but just make cool looking designs rather than trying to make something that looks like graal or feels like graal.

does the AOL logo scream "AOL"?

That's probably your best bet.
Like I posted before, it's too late to try to design a logo for Graal that 'says' Graal without literally saying it.
Everyone knows the AOL logo stands for AOL because AOL started with it. Sure, it's changed over the years, but it maintained the same idea.
Same with the Triforce, Mario mushroom's, AIM stickfigure guy and so on. They all developed these logos pretty early on, and it stuck through and became associated with it.
Graal has always used different logos throughout the years for the Graal website and client, mainly consisting of a fancied up "Graal" with graal-relating things around it. Bad idea, it should have been something simple in the beginning. Even if it didn't relate to Graal in any way, anyone who grew up with Graal would have come to know what the logo was for. Just the way any other game/business does it.

I agree this is the best one... Coming from me that is truly a compliment! Usually I would say, "I didn't make it? Blasphemy! It is horrible!", but in this case I did not.

No one understands.

A logo isn't a banner. A logo is that aim yellow guy that looks like he's running. A logo is the "M" arches in mcdonalds.

That's the kind of idea.

What's wrong with the G though?

[Knight]

No, I posted a banner that is what he was replying to. I just edited my message.

So...what became of this?

[pooper200000]

Nothing none of the logo's correctly displayed Graal in Houdini's opinion I believe.

[HoudiniMan]

The object was never to "display" Graal. That's the point everybody missed, we just needed an icon recognizable as "Graal" like the 7-up dot, which says nothing about lemon lime cola.

In any case, nothing usable turned up and the thread died. Except that it's been revived about 6 times

[Pimmeh]

And here I am, playing the Necromancer again.
I really think that an icon would be nice for Graal.
World of Warcraft has that W in a circle icon, that doesnt say anything about it, but its reconisable. So yeah

People came up with banners and catch phrases, though...

mostly bad ones
