>>743285857>>743285950It was just a personat company messing with photoshop or similar whats the big dealerino
>>743285857its a nigga with a valve
>>743285936Lol
>>743285857"Open your mind. Open your eyes." I think it's the Valve software tagline.
>>743285857Velve
>>743286031EVERYBODY GANGSTA UNTIL THE VALVE NIGGA TURNS TO LOOK AT YOU
Spoiler: Watch Pulp Fiction (1994).
>>743286174I don't get itdoes he look like a bitch?
>>743285857Open the valve and let out some steam
>>743286435W-What
>>743285857the logo is a valve.the companys name is valve.you are welcome.
>>743285857>>743285950It's just 90s industrial aesthetic. This logo was made when Ministry, Nine Inch Nails (especially Trent Reznor) , Fear Factory, Rammstein, KMFDM, and Godflesh were still culturally relevant if not at their height.It's supposed to look grungy, grimy, and metalically cold but cool at the same time.
>>743286880>>743285857Open your eyes and open your mind with valve being the key allowing you to do itAre you fucking retarded?
>>743285857Feckin' knob'ead.
>>743286918I mean you are. I can assure you no one was thinking in that fashion about this logo. As someone that works on projects that want logos that pop out, they want logos that are striking and have a visceral reaction from the person looking at it not some retarded overthought contrived rational justification for it. People remember gut feelings, not their justifications of said feelings.What better way to have people remember your logo than to mix the mechanical with the natural , with a moody sepia filter to meld the two together barring the red handle? You nerds don't understand people that well and it shows.
By playing their games you open the valve in your mind and let off some steam
Very self explanatory, steam powered fat guy.
>>743285857tuern the valve on and the ideas come out
>>743285857valveniggers are able to turn their brain off
>>743286880Right and that theming means >>743286918 and approaches the idea of the human body being a type of machine itself. Think deeper bud, 'they did it back then because that's what they did' isn't gonna cut it
Its suggestive you know, also indicates the mind as a high-pressure explosive
It's a reference
Valve is the Source of the Steam
>Half Life: Eye>Orange Box: Back of the headWhere is the Half Life 3 guy gonna have the valve placed?
>>743286748what?
>>743285950>>743285857useless humans are often called "cogs in the machine" if their purpose is just to be grinded for profits, commentary, man merging with machine type of imagery.
>>743292002either the mouth or the crown.
>>743285857I've never seen a single valve that uses that kind of actuator.
>>743285857If you could turn the valve on a niggers head in real life, I wonder what would come out.
>>743285857>>743286031i have the same type of back of my neck fat
>>743292002all you will get is floppy tranny deadcock
>>743286879I don't comprehend
>>743286880This. Any good 90s ad/brochure is pretty similar. I don’t understand how you go from that to sterilized typography and literal nothing advertisement but that’s what we have now.>>743286918No, really? I wonder what the tagline and illustration have in common thematically?
>>743292374they are common on outdoor hose spigots
>>743287187How many people are still discussing or even remember the logos you made? Valve logos are still discussed. And everyone remembers them. Guess you suck at your job
>>743292521I always thought the entire Valve/source/steam/ naming scheme was based on trains.
>>743285857it's a reference to a butthole and it's attached to a head because the idea is he wants to gayfuck your brain up until you become his tranny slave.this gaysexgaybrain theming is continued in Gabe's neuroscience company: Starfish Neuroscience
>>743292516> I don’t understand how you go from that to sterilized typography and literal nothing advertisement but that’s what we have now.My theory is that companies used to have to vie for the reader's attention in magazines, TV and other pieces of media and they had to do it in a way that was quick, effective but ensured that the reader/viewer would remember it and the brand they're selling. So they couldn't put up some anemic ad that people would forget in seconds. They really had to fight for your attention and they did so with ads that sparked the imagination and really had an artistic flair. Nowadays, most business executives and marketers don't even know what they're selling, so they just put the most bland insipid bullshit that basically everyone ignores as their means of communicating their product's existence. Basically, they've given up the pretense that they care about how their brand and product looks and just focus on minimizing costs when making ads (and the product more often than not).>>743292532> Valve logos are still discussed. And everyone remembers them.Because Valve is a very large company in the field of gaming. No shit people are going to remember the past logos of the largest games distribution service compared to some startup company from the 2010s that folded years ago probably.
