Palette: As said it looks fine and I am not one to pick colors, so not going to argue there. I said what I wanted to say about that. Theme: as I said it suggests exploration not construction and I don't really have a problem with that. Absolutely agree on world building being a difficult concept to capture, of course. Mostly whining because I have done some site design and not getting clear feedback on any issues during design phase can be a real pain. | |

That being said, I still do think you raise good points and I trust the designers will appreciate it and take it into account. | |
| Jan 22, 2016 at 8:57 | comment | added | overactor | As for the theme not suggesting construction of a world: you're right (aside from the unfinished edge at the bottom), but we don't really physically construct world either, do we? What this theme does display is a very odd world, there are multiple satelites and/or planets visible in the sky, there is major volcanic activity, space-faring mixed with some more primitive themes, there are glass mountains, there are robots and humans interacting with those robots. additionally, the world looks unfinished. It makes me want to figure out how this world works, which I think is a good sign. | |
| Jan 22, 2016 at 8:51 | comment | added | overactor | You make good points but I largely disagree. I do agree that the logo could do with some improvement, but feel that the base idea is solid. You're right about the rationale not exactly shining through in the final design without an explanation, but I think it does feel right, which is more important. The palette, I think, works exactly as intended. The stone color might occur on earth, but is relatively foreign to most people, especially as abundantly as it is in the site design. The color of the atmosphere is (seemingly) plausible for an alien world, yet quite different from ours. | |
