[Generator] Cool-text logotype/text generator

I've been using this for quite some time now. I think some people have picked up on how much I abuse this site but I figured it may be worth sharing it anyway.

http://cooltext.com/

There may be better ones on the web, but this one for me is the easiest to use to make fancy pants looking text or banners. Almost all my WADs use cool text generated logos.

Here's an example which uses four of them put together (in photoshop):

There is a reason why people invented Photoshop... or at least GIMP.

I am really no fan of these font logo generators as a good logo is always more than just some text with a pattern or glowing.

Technically, those are not logos but logotypes. A true logo has non-typographical elements to it.

Although I already knew about this site, it is a potentially useful source if you just want some spiffy looking text somewhere.

I'm worried about Tormentor's penis fixation. The purple dildo avatar, the same as an Easter egg and, yes, I've seen those pics on Facebook with the purple-penis flag. ;)

<< OWN!ED :D

You got me ;) That's from an event that we have in Germany called "Vatertagswanderung", directly translated as "father day's trip"... yeah, most of us don't have children yet but it's some kind of a day where we men go on a local trip with some tasty bratwursts and several beer and have a nice day. :)
