Curation Format/Logo

Logos must be in PNG format. A good logo shows something that is representative of the game, like the game's main characters (from the title screen, for example) or other prominent art. Some game hosting websites display unique game logos made by the game's developers themselves, which can be used as-is if they meet these criteria. Such logos might accompany the game on it's webpage or might only be viewable when searching the game via the hosting website's built-in search tools, so be sure to check. Barring that, you can also use the entire title of the game as the logo, preferably including a visual element along with it. It can be found in the curation folder as logo.png. You can add a logo to a curation in Flashpoint's Curate tab by dragging it on to the left panel above Drop an image here to add it.

Recommended tools for grabbing logos include Snip & Sketch and Paint, both included in Windows 10/11 by default. You're free to use other tools, but remember, always save logos in PNG format. When possible, it is preferable to make logos more or less square-shaped.

Examples

• 

  Bad example, has bad aspect ratio.

• 

  Bad example, contains gameplay options and buttons. Crop it down to just the logo.

• 

  Acceptable example. Menu options are cropped out, but the logo is not square-shaped.

• 

  Acceptable example. It is preferable to use higher quality art from the game.

• 

  Good example. This is a decent shot of the focal point of the game, taken from the title screen.

• 

  Great example. Shows off both the artist's work and the title, but no menu options or other things to get in the way. It is also square-shaped.

• 

  Good example. Logo is sufficiently cropped and has acceptable dimensions.

• 

  Great example. Logo has both the title and the artwork.
