The poll on this thread was to clarify the text on the logo, as making graphic variations with different words is time consuming. What is to actually fit onto any design needs to be clarified. It is not to re-run the vote on the ETARC Hub name (itself another reference), as you’re absolutely right, the earlier poll decided that.
- Capital system name - Etarcia Prime
- Capital planet - Edison
- Systems Tag - ECSD
The forum website change of name from Edison Township Amateur Radio Club to Atlas Citizen Science Division and ‘atlas-65.com’ complicates any potential logo, along with the yellow purple styling ‘Atlas A’ logo and ‘Atlas’ text in grey, now very prominent to anyone visiting this forum.
(Note the Atlas logo in use on this website bears no resemblance to any of the red colouring or black diamond chiselled monolith within the No Man Sky Lore. It should if it is the same.)
What is now clear the menmonic, ETARC is historically important (fictional or not) for links to the Township Radio days, capital hub naming and does need to be combined. The poll helps to clarify how best to reflect the change of website name and new colour palette in any artwork with this important fact.
The poll indicates the wording on any artwork in no particular order should be:
- Citizen Science Division
- ETARC
The _word _ ‘Atlas’ is dropped for this particular design brief.
If designers want to reflect website colours or No Man’s Sky theme that is entirely up to the individual. I think it is wise to spell out Citizen Science Division in full as that provides a familiar link to this forum in preference to CSD. Capital letters of the logo wording, naturally fit together as ECSD, which will be familiar to older and newer members of this forum and the game in general.
THE POLL IS NOW CLOSED. It was great and you all have been really helpful.
