I've set all themes back to the blue logo until I've got time to source and fund a fiverr campaign to get us something new.

Really, Issy? My thread about it was just too obscurely titled? :P I expect better from you, Oh Master of All Searching!

:P The timestamps are identical. I was just a bit too slow on getting all the title details set.

Do we not like the light saber wielding one suddenly?

OK, you get a pass because you took the time to actually include the picture. :) (FWIW, I thought it looked more like a phoenix.)

It's been 15 years since Darth Maul was on-screen and we're all trying forget that movie even exists.

I much prefer the blue logo to the Darth Maul version.

I dunno. I think the logo maybe redeems the character. The movie however is lost.

I saw a commercial on late night TV. It said, "Forget everything you know about slipcovers." So I did. And it was a load off my mind. Then the commercial tried to sell me slipcovers, and I didn't know what the hell they were. -- Mitch Hedberg

There was nothing wrong with the character. He was used poorly, given no back story, but he was excellent at what he did.

I liked the Darth Maul logo but understand if no one wants notice from Disney.

Darth Maul scares my kids who think Darth Vader is awesome. Yesterday my youngest declared herself "Pink Darth Vader" who fights for the "Good Side" and said she was signing for all the people waiting in line.
