    Yes: The tsa symbol IS a sexual deviant that was outcasted by its symbol parents.

    Well, I'm always trying to create logos myself, I've always been more of a layout design person.. but those people who can come up with the good logos like that, man, just genius

    Much applause, cause it actually represents the TSA well..
    personally, Kharaa need kind of something that represents them more than a hive. <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/nerd-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    well theyre not exactly a corporation, so they dont need much of a logo. Im pretty sure Kharra board meetings are something like

    Fade: 'So wht do you guys think of the hive logo?'
    Marines: 'Err umm *cough *cough* (more random dissaproval)'
    Fade: 'So, you guys want me to kill you...Is that it?'
    Marines: 'No no! its lovley, we love it! right guys? (sounds of approval)'

    rofl.

    Every time the two teams see eachother, they're probably like.

    "Oh Jerry, by the way, your logo really sucks. I mean, it's one of your STRUCTURES for god sakes." BLAM BLAM
    "At least ours doesn't look like it's about to fly away!" CHOMP

    It has, however, always reminded me of the <a href='http://www.kerlin.de/da/dalogo.jpg' target='_blank'>Dark Angels</a> logo. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Doesn't seem to be a coincidence. But it was nicely done and has a fine source of inspiration anyway :-)

    Would be quite hard explaining how the kharaa could actually draw their logo :o

    Why not make it an eye. An alien eye. Yea, eyes are scary.

    I was playing W40k Dawn of War when I saw the Dark Angels' logo. I knew immediately I needed a green and beige/gold army called the Frontiersmen to wreak havoc on the Orkz.

    Yes, the graphic quality sucks, but I had all the settings turned down.

    I always thought it resembled the SAS badge:

    I loke the logo very much too, but who came up with that idea? I think it was the story writer :o

    The logo was done by Cory 'Squeal like a Pig' Strader. When he was still more active around here, he was once asked about the similiarities to the WH40K logo. His paraphrased response was that he, like Charlie, weren't really familiar with the Warhammer universe at the beginning of NS' development, and that the combination of weapons and wings is as old as heraldic lore. In so far, it's more likely that both the Gamer's Workshop artists and Cory thought of similiar medieval crests when coming up with their designs.
