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.......... |

so many great contributions already. in the end it will be damned hard to vote! |
User Comment Submitted by Raistlin on 20 February 2024
@Danzig .. that's definitely an advantage to having the entries be non-animated, no-VIC tricks etc etc :-) |
User Comment Submitted by Danzig on 20 February 2024
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.

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 Submitted by Raistlin on 18 February 2024
@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. |
User Comment Submitted by Wile Coyote on 18 February 2024
'$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. |
User Comment Submitted by Wile Coyote on 17 February 2024
I wish PETSCII was not allowed into the compo.
A separate PETSCII Logo Compo would have made more sense. |

Great competition, looking at all the wonderful works published here, I will try to contribute something from myself :-) |
User Comment Submitted by t0m3000 on 10 February 2024
hi@all, my first compo, yeah! |
User Comment Submitted by Scrap on 9 February 2024
Hammerfist: You could always start a Large Font Compo“. I would love it! :-) |
User Comment Submitted by Burglar on 8 February 2024
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). |
User Comment Submitted by Raistlin on 8 February 2024
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). |
User Comment Submitted by Raistlin on 8 February 2024
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) |
User Comment Submitted by Raistlin on 8 February 2024
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. |
User Comment Submitted by Hammerfist on 8 February 2024
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? |
User Comment Submitted by Worrior1 on 7 February 2024
Great site and interesting compo. I'm going to attend. |
