I couldn't find the exact font but maybe this is a bit better!
Nice! And the drawbars add the final touch to it, imo

Yep, very nice! Just a suggestion: on a small mobile screen the 5 rows of text are barely readable, maybe the "A01" can be eliminated so the rest of the text can be stretched and made bigger?

Something like this (5 seconds work with Paint, surely it can be done better on photoshop)

Also, by now there have been 3 (I think) versions of the forum logo, it would be nice to have a place where they are all available, just for nostalgia (I have a NS2 so I'm emotionally more related to the old LCD screen ;) )

Hi, great! Indee the size should be bit longer. The "um" from Forum is a bit hard to read there, but almost there.

Here for nostalgic reasons a history of NUF logos:

Yes it's a low-resolution draft made quickly in Paint, I don't have access to a PC with Photoshop right now, so if somebody could edit a final hi-res version it would be great!
Otherwise if the community likes the idea I can do it, but only in the next few days.


hahaha, nice to see all the old logos! I'd almost forgotten the "rotary dial" logo...and had never seen the original "drawbar" one!
It would be nice to make the new one animated, like the old ones.

I guess the image was compressed and damaged when I uploaded it. The original is all linear except the two buttons that are parts of a photo, so it should not show like this. Please give me an email so that I can send the image in full resolution. I can make a verson without the A:1 and bigger letters as spider proposed, it's 5 minutes work for me.

It would also be very cool if the green led over the store button blinked. I can not do it with corel draw that I'm using, but if someone can do it please let me know, maybe we can co-operate on this

Done and sent to Johannes. I made one with the led ON and another one with led OFF. Maybe the two images can swap one another so that it gives the effect of blinking!

ooops...maybe once it's cut to fit in the forum heading, the "Store" LED will be cropped? In the current version only the "Song Mode" LED is visible.
;)
