Look at them, ugly as a very ugly thing. You could almost believe they'd been knocked up in 5 minutes in psp.
Anyway, design me a new logo, perhaps keeping the screwdriver theme (perhaps not, do what you want with the logo) and you shall be richly rewarded with my undying gratitude erm...points.
Yes, you can have them all because I sure as hell dont want em. 178 at the time of writing.
I was thinking on the train home 'what can I offer people that I dont really want, is fairly crappy but that some people love?' The answer was obvious.
And just to sweeten the deal, I’ll be adding my points too. So that’s about a total of 500 big ones you could walk away with!
Yes, I too shall contribute my credits toward this noble cause. Providing of course, that the logo is good, and is snapped up by Benny.
How can anyone resist now? Thats 828 points.
Thats enough for a change of username, a glowing username and this Beautiful Old Staffordshire Minature Mug (

I'll match however many points are offered up by people in this thread, because I haven't abused my powers in well over an hour.
And just to make this even more irresistible, I’m going to give the full version of Grom (worth over thirty quid or so) to the best one! Providing it’s better than the already existing captions of course. What’s Grom I hear you cry? Well:
"Grom is a truly epic game by developers Rebelmind that will provide players with loads of pure adventure, a slice of humour, and a touch of mystery to arouse the imagination. It's an aadventure game combining an in depth storyline and tactical real-time combat. It’s easy to get into and combines a powerful interface with a blockbuster movie feeling."
But is it any good?
WWHS gave it 4/5 (
http://wwhs.fangames.co.uk/grom-review.shtml)!)
PC Gamester gave it 81% (
http://www.pcgamester.co.uk/showreview.php?gamename=grom&page=1)!)
The answer is yes! So you could win that too. Get logo designing, pronto.
Wow, those are really nice QueZTone. I like the gears :)
Maybe a bit bigger though?
Too tired to make anything good. I do however find it amusing. :~

Gabez, ill make a bigger version of it tomorrow
Remi, lol :p
I'm wondering if the use of the Golden Guy should be avoided in the Q+E logo, since that is probably some sort of infringement.
Hmm maybe, then again ScummRev ripped off golden guy and got away with it. On balance its probably better not to use it.
Maybe a picture of Britney Spears with "Quick And Easy" underneath, would that work?
You wouldn't dare ;)
(would you :( )
Gabez's offer of that Grom thing almost made me put in an entry myself.
Then I thought, nah.
I'll offer my points to the winner as well, however many of the damn things I have.
(EDIT: 61! How can you resist?!)
Incidentally, this thread has caused me to click on so many "new window" image links that scrollbars have appeared on my Windows taskbar for the first time ever - well, without me deliberately opening billions of things, that is.
I'll toss in my hundred whatever points, too, however I require that the logo be an animated gif.
Hell, I'll give a hundred points to the first person to post an animated logo that isn't total crap.
Here's my ridiculous first attempt. Its main faults are that it has nothing to do with LEC or being a tool/utility program, both of which should negate it from the race. Its main strong point is that it is shiny, and looks sorta like an old movie or cereal title.

That's very slick indeed, Jake :) Very stylish, like you said, like a movie :)
I think this contest is over.
hahahaaha im going to contribute to this.
also you can have all my points.. ive got like 8 or something.
p. si love your avatar scabb.. together we are a team :)
i suck at this, looked good before PS decided to "optimise" it, anyway you can have my points if you win, because im only going to abuse the forums with them anyway
That's bootiful Jake, simple but effective :afro1:
I think Carl Shutt's logo design is genius, pure genius
:D :D :D

I know, I think professional design artists should be banned from this competition it's just not fair on us :(
Woah those are all bloody good. Murta, Jake and Queztone's especially.
This thread is pure madness. Cheers to everyone who's offered points, and to Gabez for offering a freaking game as a prize!
Quez i really like that one with the gears, and Murtas with the scissors.
Quez mind if I try my hand at that gear look with the LEC "purple L bar" when I get home tonight?
Jake, sure. Go ahead :) I was thinking along the same lines when I made it. I thought; hmm, this is a good start, its a good logo. Now I should let Jake make something fancy out of it :D
Bloody hell, you take one night off to go to the pub and then the next thing you know the forums explode! Right, I'm gonna go do a new logo. Wahey!

My approach is very simplistic. Anyway, I need the points so badly... not. The contest is fun and therefore I will donate my points to the winner and try to come up with something better.
In the unlikely event that someone other than myself wins, I will also donate my stash of points.
LoL, Here is My Pitiful attempt...
http://www.apaw90.dsl.pipex.com/head.jpg)
LoL, I should at least get an A for effort;)
Hellbeard, get a lycos (
http://www.lycos.co.uk) account to offsite link.
Meh... I uploaded the bmp file, because the JPG compression in Paint is sucky (yes, I made it in Paint). It's probably illegal to steal borrow things from the LEC site, but what the heck:

edit by me: thanks
I have emerged from the depths of #monkey-island to contribute to this contest. But it turned out sucky, so never mind:

Here's my attempt! :)

and here's a smaller alternate one...

As for the actual icon, I always thought the Sam N Max one provided with Q+E 3.5 looked very nice on my desktop! ;)

Heh, I really like that one, 'Peel.
TP that's really really nice. I like the larger one better. The logo typography needs some work but that computer illustration is realllly nicely done!

Bleh, I suck at this. The banner wouldn't be bad, I think, if it was called "Lucas Quick & Easy"... :ю
Heh, thats a good one Scabb! Mine were attempts at serious ones that, well, failed. I'll upload them, as soon as this DAMN ftp loads up.
edit:
Still having problems with the FTP, so I uploaded them to geocities.
attempt 1 (
http://www.geocities.com/lucastones/lecqae.jpg) )
attempt 2 (
http://www.geocities.com/lucastones/lecqae2.jpg) )
(as its geocities, you need to put a space at the end of the URL after the link is opened.)
I don't really think either of them have been done too well, but what can ya do? Meh.
