The new logo looks great in Black Pearl. Classy, inasmuch as that word encompasses an octopus rampage.

Re: Umm, wha' happen to our logo?
is it possible to lower the logo so it's touching the lower red border, or to 'uncrop' it (if more of the image exists)? that expanse of space underneath ruins the effect.

What theme? Not sure what you mean -- the logo is a transparent PNG and doesn't have a border.hitbyambulance wrote:is it possible to lower the logo so it's touching the lower red border, or to 'uncrop' it (if more of the image exists)? that expanse of space underneath ruins the effect.

Re: Umm, wha' happen to our logo?
Yea, I think it is just that the gap (put in by phpbb I would think) beneath the logo is just excessive.
You don't notice it on logos that don't have a flat bottom.
Still looks good but would be even better if the blank area beneath it were 10-25% of what it is.

I think I fixed it in the Black Pearl theme.. Or at least normalized it.

Is there a high resolution version of the new logo?
That would look awesome as a lithograph.

Looks like New York. The Octopus seems to be getting intimate with the Chrysler building. That would have been a sight to see from my balcony when I lived in NYC.

Re: Umm, wha' happen to our logo?
Is there no way to write a simple script to rotate through the best 4/5 logo images once a week/month or so? That might make everyone happy and keep things from getting stale.

It doesn't quite line up in Black Pearl.

Re: Umm, wha' happen to our logo?
I suspect that might actually have been an attempt to un-holidaze the logo but the wrong image is selected.
wot?
To be fair, adolescent power fantasy tripe is way easier to write than absurd existential horror, and every community has got to start somewhere... right?
Unless one loses a precious thing, he will never know its true value. A little light finally scratches the darkness; it lets the exhausted one face his shattered dream and realize his path cannot be walked. Can man live happily without embracing his wounded heart?
