First of all I would like to say thanks for everybody who contributed logo of some sort, all the art work that was submitted were creative but as there can only be one winner, I had to make a decision.
I will tell you who wins but I will also give 3 honour mentions and some comments on them :thumbsupdrool:
Three Honour Mentions(In no order)


1, flashmaster
Contribution: Link
Comments: The logo was quite entertaining with the text being animated and changing colours. Also one quite special thing that I personally wouldnt have never thought were the banners at the top and bottom of the logo :evgr: They brought nice feeling to the whole animation giving it little more to look at. But unfortunately I felt that the whole animation could have had little more to show overall but its still worth mentioning :thumbsupdrool:

Comments: This contribution was the one that I liked because of the use of blue colour that appeals to my eyes and also the text font was very good choice. The text overall matches the whole logo nicely because of the colours and placing. But one thing that should be noted that even though the use of renders (Elladan/Elrohir by me, Herumor by Caluadan) in the logo was unexpected move, I dont know was it right move. But the fading of the renders was very fitting but still this art work somehow left me little cold. It had good parts but also some things that Im little uncertain on. But like the first honour mention, this was also worth mentioning :p


3, Caluadan

: This contribution was the one that mostly matched my vision of the logo colours of INO. If I would have to pick from the picture and the animation I would pick the picture because I felt that the animation colours were little "unsuiting". The text on the pic was very creative noticing that there is line coming from left and going outside the pic to the right but I think that this logo could have been little smaller and the size of the art was little too wide in my eyes. But the colours I think were the ones that I was most appealed to. Like all the artwork submitted to the contest, this was also very nice entry and it certainly was very appealing but the size was propably the one that made me not choose this one as the winner.


And now finally on to the winner :sad2:
The Winner Is
Thorin III Stonehelm

Comments: :p ^_^ Well what can I say ? I think that pic talks for itself. Colours, good. Text, good. Size, good. Overall, very good. I really dont know what to say about this other than that it is fitting as logo of I'N'O :p

Thanks for everybody for contributing and congrats for the winner and keep up the work :) Now you can tell me which one of the prizes you soon and I will try to fix it up as soon as possible :)

haha yeah...

and congratulations thorin! your one is so sweet :p
from one art guy to another ( :good: ), I'd say congratulations to your good idea rather than to some good work...
after all I could make your entry myself in no time - being just a matter of routine - but I could never have got the idea. I'd say the ideas makes the artist, and this idea of yours was a great one, professionally produced :thumbsupdrool:

Yay!!!! I am very glad you liked my picture and I thank you for the great comments. Your pics were very good, too, guys.
And, as Juissi is asking me to choose a reward, I choose the first one - "Battle for Middle-earth II: Rise of the Witch-king: Last Alliance Extended Edition, includes new heroes, special units and more variation for skins".

Whoops, I missed this! :p Congrats Thorin Stonehelm III!

And I also think its the idea or concept that sells the logo. My idea was rather bland being an on-the-fly 'how might this look' thought, but yours was really fancy. Can't say I'm fond of the coloring... but the quality is there and a whole lot of it. I too think it is a great concept, but in my humble opinion, I'd prefer the BG a different color. :xd:

Great Job! :)
