Pixel Joint Forum: Suggestions for a Logo.

Message

   A huge greeting to the community.

I am new to pixel art/animation and I am in need of suggestions & advices.

I am currently working on my logo but I have a bit of a problem.

I want to incorporate this

and this, together.

Also, since the animated cat is my first pixel art, please point out anything that could be improved.

Any suggestion/advice is appreciated.

Thanks!

	For the cat, I would suggest one in between frame where his tail is poking straight out to the side to make it smoother. If you make the tail bigger/more exaggerated, the cat could act as an L in the logo and you could have PiX[cat]CAT.

	@Ashkin: Hey, that's an idea I haven't thought about! And thank you for the animation tip. I will try it out as soon as I am able. More suggestions are welcome. I want to try many different possible combinations. Edited by PiXLCAT - 12 July 2012 at 6:49pm

	Update on the animation of the cat. I added an extra frame to make the tail wagging smoother. Also, here is my attempt with Ashkin's idea. Although I think it looks sort of weird. Anyone can help out? Edited by PiXLCAT - 13 July 2012 at 6:21pm

	I was thinking of having the tail facing the other way, flatter, so that the cat's silhouette forms an L.

	Ah! I think I get it now. It was not so clear the first time. Alright, I will try it out. Edit: I don't know if I should make the tail a tiny bit longer or not, it would look kind of weird but here is what I did. Edited by PiXLCAT - 13 July 2012 at 6:14pm
