New logo

When I first joined Second Life I didn't use much time with thinking what I should be called. I didn't think I'd stay that long. And when I got hooked up, it didn't feel right to make a new avatar, so Bastet stuck. And it is a bit of a joke, cause my friends have been calling me a Webgoddess for a very long time and cause I was sort of half raised by a cat (at least he tried very hard).

I've been struggling to work out a new logo for a month or so. Finally I decided to discard all the old ideas, get a new font and google around a little bit for inspiration. This is when I stumbled upon the fact that Nut, like Bastet (or Bast), is an Egyptian goddess. Her name translates to night and she was originally the goddess of the nighttime sky. The rest was easy.

The new logo is all black and white. It's simple, cause that's how I like it to be. Representing the Egyptian theme, there's a little star for the nighttime sky. As I pointed out on my previous post, I'm working on new posters and vendors. You can still find the old logo in my store and on the search, but this new one will be there soon.

So, what do you think?

[...] i like to use colorful clothes, while the RL me is more drawn to black and greyscale. And since I redid the NUT logo I had an idea of doing some black and white stuff for promotion. Like this months subscription [...]
