Well its good for a first try . we r going to do a million pics before u pic the best 1 :P btw i wanted to make the lock spin but i got stuck there btw sorry for taking so long this picture can be done in 3 mins.

Kayto, yours is too big, it's good, but not good enough. I don't think we need any movement in there.

This is definitely the best out of all the ones posted. But I'd prefer if it's a little more horizontal (wider, less height). Also some sort of border would be nice. Good job once again John.

edit: Looking at it again, I think it would be nice if the horizontal chain can stretch out from the picture.. making it longer and not restraining within the picture itself. If you get what I mean?  Like the #2 sample I posted, the keylock stretches out from the picture.. yours would be great if the chains can stretch out from the picture as well..

Lol I am really bad at explaining stuff like this. apologies.

Very good effort Kayto, but like Sami said, would prefer if there isn't any movement on the graphic.



I think at the end we will pick the few good ones and have a vote in the HQ board to see which one will be used as our official "Locked Topic" graphic. What you think Sami?
Please do keep them coming.. we genuinely appreciate all your hardwork  :)

Wouldn't something like this look better with transparent background


+ different size if possible?
This size looks more like a siggy.

Most of the graphics are really nice.. But they seem to be lacking something... something "professional".. can't really explain what because I ain't exactly a graphic designer.. sorry  :-[ :-[

Something to point out.. Try not to constraint the graphics into just a rectangular picture. It tends to get abit boring when everything seems to be within a "square-ish" picture which makes the picture looks like a "signature". Break lose the boundaries  ;D

an example would be:
Notice that there isn't any boundaries or feeling as if the graphics are trapped within a rectangular picture?

Hope you get what I mean.

Precisely what I was asking for.. Didn't want the graphics to be all within a rectangular picture.. looks like a signature like thEnd mentioned.

Don't say that Kayto. You did a good job as well really. It is just my personal preference. We still don't know what the other highstaff think. You can still post your work if you have any, since now it's clear what type of graphic we are looking for.

That's a good work there, Jay, erm maybe a bit of a color change? And little bit smaller in height. But so far that's the best I've seen so far.

Personally, when I think of locked, no entry, don't touch, warnings etc - I think of red.

A colour change to what though?

Smaller in height? It's just signature size at the moment

If you leave "Locked" red that's fine, but the the text bellow that should be in greenish color.

Height should be smaller, thinner. Good in length, but needs to be thinner :D
