Now someone needs to make an animation of a glowing 3D OMB logo on a blue background for the intro/outro.

Can do, working on the logo.

Awesome. Show meh

To everybody: Start recording stuff! We'll accept pretty much any game wether its a Let's Play, Review, List, Game you're making, or anything else!
If you cant record on your computer, try recording on a friend's computer or skype somebody on OMB while they record!

If this is an accepted idea, we could probably talk it further in depth. We could cover a range of topics, as long as there is a person willing to talk about a topic. It could essentially be like publishing good forum threads in the form of a video.

I'd love to help. I already have a job pertaining to games, and write a lot about them anyways.

And if you need my gmail in order to make me a manager, it's [email protected] easy enough.

I do love the idea of turning OneMoreBlock into a Youtube channel that reviews and discusses games. Perhaps we could also somehow add to this site to make a place for writers to write articles on topics and news? I'd personally like this as I can't record, but I would love to contribute to this. The blog/site would be similar to IGN(?)

I think our intro for videos could be a screen where the words in OneMoreBlock come up one after another, if you get what I'm saying. Sorta like...

Blue screen, then "ONE" pops up, quickly followed by "MORE" popping up, and "BLOCK" after that, with a little tune for each popup, like dun, dun dun! Excuse my silly explanation.

I've actually finished up the first video here, it has a short intro (Though it could be changed for future videos).

Also, yes, I'm actually trying to to make us a little bit like IGN

Will do.

And being like IGN is NEVER a bad thing, haha.

I was thinking of maybe:

Camera shows a blank dark blue area for a split-second, but then zooms out (with a soft wind/whooshing sound effect) through the 2nd "O" of a 3D model of the One More Block, glowing and surrounded by a thin, light fog. Once the camera zooms out to reveal the full model, a masculine male announcer voice comes on to say "ONE MORE BLOCK". The URL for the site fades in below the model, (www.onemoreblock.com/forum/index.php), OR once we become an "IGN-like" website, the URL could just be for the homepage rather than the forum index (With the way it's set up [both "home" and "forums" link to the same place], I'm assuming that XenForo allows you to make a homepage for your forum, but Adz just decided to skip that part.), and the video starts.

The outro is similar, the exact same model is shown in the state it was before (except the URL isn't there). Everything is normal for 1.5 seconds, when the OMB logo's light flickers before shutting off completely. The camera then zooms into the second O, except rather than a blue area, it shows only darkness. The OMB URL fades in again on the black background, before fading out again.

If only we could get wowfun to set up a "blog" section for the website. Perhaps wordpress or something like that.

If not, I'll grab a domain and set one up there

Why do you not discuss this on the actual post for it?

^ that is much appreciated information, but NinjaDingo recently made an account and I'm following him, but he hasn't posted but one or two things. The bad thing is that due to technical issues I have no access to steam, and all of the cool people you listed are on steam. :CCC

also *sadfaic* at biznatch, bigdrip, and munchy. (but bigdrip DID make an account here, so

)

It's still in the works. I created a mask in AE for the logo, than I used Element 3D to extrude the mask, the problem being I now need to re-texture it. (it's currently all grey)
