    Lets see if we can get it trending. I've been trying to make the logo but I'm terrible at it.

    I'm having a lot of frustration with the way emblems are shared and browsed through the in game interface. I wish there was a way to look at emblems on a web browser on a computer instead. The load times for browsing the emblems are tremendous.

    It's kind of amazing what some of these people can make. I made a crappy quake 3 logo, haha.

    Tell you what, if you or anyone else makes a good looking Giant Bomb emblem, I'll make it the community image for the Giant Bomb PS4 community. Speaking of which, if you'd like to play with some more people, join up.

    If anyone here hasn't looked at some of the trending emblems and paint shops in the game yet, you should. Some of them are really impressive. It's too bad that we can't download them to use ourselves, but I imagine that functionality might be coming later.

    Tried my best. Looking at it now, it seems like the colours are a little different on my TV compared to this upload, but oh well. I think it's okay but I'm sure someone else will step up and blow this out of the water.

    Creating the giant bomb emblem is one of the first things I do anytime I start a new Call of Duty or Battlefield game that supports it haha. This time, the background felt a little empty so I tried to make it look like the video bumper.

    @jjbsterling: this looks pretty damn good!

    I tried to make one myself but it looked like crap toward the one on the link below so i removed it.

    Sorry to hear it, but Zombies and Campaign might be playable enough. It's not a US only community, so feel free to join anyway, if you'd like. I do agree, though, that traditional competitive multiplayer is a mess when trying to play with people on two different continents.

    Anyhow, I suck with the emblem editor, so both of the examples above are far beyond my skills, but I ended up going with the one that @jjbsterling: made. It seemed just a little bit closer to the official emblem to me, although it was close. I did like the background in the other emblem, though. That was a nice touch.

    The community image has been changed. Unfortunately, I've heard that the developers ran into some legal issues with people being able to share emblems and paint jobs in the game itself, so the community image is sadly going to be the closest this emblems comes to being shared with the community. They're still trying to work through the issues, though, and are hoping to add proper user content sharing features at a later date.

    I'm way late, but here's my attempt.

    Miscellaneous thoughts:

    -Super sad to hear about potentially not being able to share emblems in the future - that's what I was hoping for when I made this.

    -I enjoy the "textures" color options - fun to switch up the backgrounds of emblems like these.

    -This was easier than I expected, but you really have to finesse the free transform tool to get some of the shapes/curves just right

    -Making black borders around sections is dead simple if you just remember to copy the layer you want to border, change the copy's color to black, move the copy behind the original layer, and slightly increase the copy's size.

    -I used 57 layers but could probably simplifyy this down to 45 or so - maybe I will make a tutorial when I get the nerve to do this all over on PS4.

    -If anyone wants to add me, it's Secondhands on Xbox One and secondhands12 on PS4.

    Cheers.

    The image seems to be broken right now, but I saw it when it was working, and you did a darn nice job. For those who can't see the image, it was basically the entire Giant Bomb logo, text and all.

    @secondhands:

    Yours is pretty good too. And I'm glad to see that you joined the community. I should be online some today--Wednesday--and a lot over the weekend. The official Treyarch twitter account posted a poll asking if people would like to have double XP this weekend, and the only options were two ways of saying yes. It should help me finally hit the level cap.
