Thanks jmin! Fantastic job getting to 7th place! Some very tough competition in there - and especially good to see a new-scener coming in so high! Hopefully we can do more compos like this and try to inspire others to join the scene :-)

Congrats to the winner and a big thanks to Raistlin for the smooth organization! Was my first compo and I had a blast these past months with its steady stream of logos popping up; learned a lot from you all.
Also, loved the voting system. Clicking through them all took some time but definitely manageable despite 100+ entries!

Re: the public voting system. It -mostly- went really well. You can see the votes here:

https://c64gfx.com/compo/charsetlogocompo2024votes

nb. my single vote that's shown was an accident.. long story to explain but the voting platform is a little over-sensitive on mobile.. a finger-swipe to scroll the screen on the voting platform can register an uninteded vote - and voting can't be disabled for the administrator it seems.

I thoroughly enjoy watching the results of this compo. There's some great art in there. Big ups to all contenders!
Awesome logo viewer on the voting page too, I love it! It should be made a screen saver :)

Our voting system is prepped, I shall be turning on voting at midnight (CET)!

https://pollunit.com/en/polls/c64gfxcharsetlogocompo2024

Please let me know if you would like to participate in voting - ALL CSDb registered users can join. Just send me your handle and email address through PM or at raistlin@c64demo.com.

You'll love the voting system, honestly, it's soooooo smooth. I just test-voted ALL the entries, doing a "gut reaction" mark-out-of-ten, and it took me less than 5mins!

Good luck everyone!

Hey Everyone, please PM me your email address if you would like to be able to vote on the C64GFX.com CharSet Logo Compo 2024! As mentioned earlier, this compo will be voted on separate to CSDb - the CSDb scoring system doesn't apply.

We have something very cool to try out with the voting - I can't wait to see how it goes :-)

ALSO, please ensure that your entry is grouped correctly on CSDb and on C64GFX.com. Any that are in "Out of Compo" that shouldn't be, please change to match others. If you're not sure, just set "C64 Graphics" and I'll fix it for you. If you're in "Out of Compo", I have to assume that that's by choice..........

@Danzig .. that's definitely an advantage to having the entries be non-animated, no-VIC tricks etc etc :-)

I expect Raistlin to code the compilation using all the logos in bottom-to-top-votes-order ;-) and with c0d3-pr0n!

UPDATED RULES:-

1) we will now allow 6 (SIX) entries per person;

2) entries will be split into 4 (FOUR) categories - "MultiColour and Mixed", "HiRes", "PETSCII" and "ECM". Please tag appropriately on CSDb. I'm open to suggestions on how best to do this .. the "compo" dropdown of course doesn't have the right categories.............. but on C64GFX.com I'll tag everything appropriately ahead of voting.

Updated rules here: https://www.c64gfx.com/compo/CharSetLogoCompo2024.html

Sounds good, if we can do 4 entries instead of 3, so we can experiment with 1 entry per category. Or multiple entries in a single category. Though the scoring will get skewed, I guess.

User Comment

@Wile: D800 data just needs to be static. No animation allowed on the logo.

Re: PETSCII.. we’ve been talking about splitting PETSCII, Hires, MC/Mixed and ECM into different categories … and then the prize going to whoever scores highest across all the categories. If there are no strong objections to that, we’ll do it.

'$D800 colour data'

Does this mean:
Background color, multi color 1, multi color 2 remain fixed,
while 4th remaining char color can be switched through the the usual black, white, red, cyan, green, yellow, magenta, cyan.

I wish PETSCII was not allowed into the compo.
A separate PETSCII Logo Compo would have made more sense.

Hammerfist: You could always start a Large Font Compo“. I would love it! :-)

for ppl needing to convert to their logo to chars, png2prg 1.4 can do that for you (mixed mode is *not* supported tho, but pure hires or mc will work just fine).

ECM Mode will now be allowed - since there are so many asking about it. Hope to see some good use of it from those asking! (it means you only get 64 chars though - no raster tricks so you can't be turning it off half way down the logo ;p).

Great news! Vinny Mainolfi has been kind enough to offer a 6-issue (physical) subscription to Freeze 64 to the winner of the compo! (including free shipping anywhere in the world)

Hammerfist: damn, sorry :-( .. the plan with this compo was that the logos should all be easily comparable .. and keeping them static single screeners helps that.

I was thinking of entering with a large font built up of repeating characters, but some of my ideas would be impossible to show without scrolling, as each letter takes up half or more of the screen in height. Are these allowed and how should I present them, please?
