Heart of the Swarm logo in HD size - 5312 x 2470!!!
Size - 22 mb. There are no image hosting, that support this size (imgur max 10 mb), so I've uploaded it to file hosting http://mir.cr/1IEW5PFN
Here is half sized HD variant, size 2762 x 1284
Same logo without lights at background. You can download HD variant (10 mb) or look at half-sized here
Recolored to orange (zerg interface and Kerrigan lights color) and red (blood, etc)
P.S. It's not breaks NDA, because I've recreated this logo in photoshop. Based on WoL logo, that Blizzard already uploaded on their official site.
Here's the "temporary" logo Blizzard made and what color they used, back at BlizzCon 2009, when they announced the trilogy: http://images.wikia.com/starcraft/images/a/a2/LegacyOfTheVoid_SC2_Logo1.jpg (Leads me to think that they wanted to use a greenish yellow or gold for the background light with the LotV logo; the other logos were light blue and light purple, and that's how the respective SC2 logos for WoL and HotS had the background lights colored, and the tint of the SC text was exactly the same)
The font used here is the classic SC one; I'd rather suggest finding a LotV font that you think fits.
Not need to waste time for logo, that can be totally different from blizzard's logo, I mean LotV logo.
P.S. But I like teal color more :) For me, orange/gold isn't serious, it's like "StarCraft 2: Banana Edition", protoss must have something, like teal/cyan/blue. The last one is already in WoL. For HotS logo I've waited for orange color, but purple is good too

Awww, but it doesn't need to be like Blizzard's, necessarily. =(
You had already made one for HotS, which wasn't like Blizzard's, and it was nice, too. And if you make one, you might inspire Blizzard to make theirs more like yours. (Or even use yours perhaps, with due credit) It's not the first time that fan art has inspired game companies Blizzard or BioWare to use fan art as if it was official art and credit those fans. (Mr. Jack is a good example in the case of StarCraft, and with BioWare and Mass Effect, someone made a concept for a mining site on a desert planet...That was actually implemented in ME3, and it's used for Mars. The whole idea was put into the game because of fan art and what the fans asked.)

Previous HotS logo fully based on WoL logo, with same font and standart recoloring. Also, that wallpaper with Kerrigan (that is still Queen) is HARDLY disliked by original author of this work (from DeviantArt), but after month he recolored her eyes to orange :D Maybe inspired by my reworked version of his art

I will try something with LotV logo, but maybe later. Maybe this summer, don't have a lot time now
And yeah, you may have inspired the original author. But trust me, Blizzard is much more easily inspired and convinced by fans than that guy from DeviantArt. ;)
I mean, Blizzard removed completely, very quickly, and without any question a unit, the Soul Hunter, simply because people didn't like the name and because the idea of souls in the StarCraft universe seemed silly to many fans. They also did the same to the Terran Siege Tank. Changed its art simply because, despite them having approved and liked the design, the fans didn't.
And it doesn't stop there, either...Blizzard modified the game's "color palette" and texture style to make everything look grittier and less colorful and cartoony, because many fans didn't like it, despite the fact that Blizzard never commented on it that subject for a good year and a half and in fact even said that they approved their work despite fan commentary. They still ended up changing it due to the fans' say.
Aviano Future Bold - it's a new font, that released in this month (may 2011), so I think, you will not find it for free. Everywhere you can only buy it for $20+
I have a surprize for you :)

Do you have the original version of the WoL logo, the one that you edited into this?!
In logo folder you will find layered WoL logo (PSD)

Thanks! =)
Also, would you mind doing one for Legacy of the Void, but with one of these colors on the background light?:

(You could always do a teal and then a yellow or goldish one if you want to)

@Existor371: Go Oh, alrighty then. =)

Very awesome!
Could you upload font used in HotS?
Aviano Future Bold - it's a new font, that released in this month (may 2011), so I think, you will not find it for free. Everywhere you can only buy it for $20+
But I solved this problem. I've used "Try font" on one font site, then screenshoted all letters, deleted background and added special effects, like official logo
http://www.fonts.com/findfonts/detail.htm?productid=870400#tryfont
You could always upload the .psd file of your HotS logo... :P
@AlexO6: Go
I'm lazy on uploading 200 mb psd file
@Existor371: Go
Thanks. It is really useful site
Whenever you feel like it, then. :P
Added orange and red logos
Hype come early, once again... and then a freaking long wait till we get a hand on smt...
Looks awesome btw.
Nice. Looks great :D.
I'm not as good as Existor, but I did try making a few LotV logos:
The weird light contour is due to resizing the picture from 7200 pixels to 1024 pixels...
So, which one do you like?
EDIT: I can also upload them if you'd like, but they're 20-25mb each.
And here is a link to the album containing all 7 of them on imageshack:

The last one is best, and change font, maybe change Y letter only. Because it's very close to "4" And make little stronger shadow.
I think, gold color isnt that good. Teal is the best.
P.S. Maybe change slighty closer to blue? It will be more teal, than greenish
Any more blue and it starts looking too much like the WoL logo...
