LOGO
We will need:
1.) Game console BOOT screen "Wizard" character logo (low-res pixelart 144x144 will be best)
2.) Pixel or vector Website "Wizard" character logo (vector/SVG or hi-res pixelart)
3.) RetroWiz text logo (vector/SVG or hi-res pixelart) - I will send you my (two colors) text logo and you can colorize it and dither it.

Soon will be RETROWIZ.COM/FORUM online
FORUM will be for RETROWIZ developers, coders, pixel artists,chip musicians etc etc.

Hello.

Here is our AVR project we are working since late 2011.
It is something like Raspberry PI but 8bit / retro game console.
It is based on Jerry´s AVGA platform.
(He is also behind all RetroWiź hardware, HW designer).
I am WWW and FORUM admin, enclosure designer.
We call our platform RetroWiz. (from "Retrocomputer Wizard" or "Retrogaming Wizard").


CAN SOMEONE COLORIZE, DITHERING and PIXELISE THIS BW LOGO?

You could use my 'Space Wizard' avatar >_<
Not sure if I want to use the company name 'Space Wizard' any more. Thinking of going back to just me 'Suese'

Ouya is very nice. We are smaller team than Boxer8.
And we are not running crowdfunding. But in future we want
use ARM in RetroWiz2 too... But we doesnt want to make another android platform. RetroWiz is more like Nintendo NES. And RetroWiz2 will be like SNES or PSX1.
We want keep it minimal, low priced and retro!

We are running now at 176x200x16 with sprites and scrolling :).
