What's up with the strange Octopus Overlords thing in the top left?

The first, albeit stunted, vanguard of the Overlords' Army (Navy?) has arrived...

If that's all they've got then I can take them all by myself...in my slippers...whilst smoking a cigar.

I love it, but it's missing 2 legs. It's the only thing keeping it from being photorealistic!!

All the OO artwork Kratzer did and we end up up with that? I mean, good effort and everything, but my daughter's brought home more profound drawings from school.

It's a temporary thing, chill

. We just wanted to get rid of the PhpBB logo until we finalize the art we're going to use.

This should act as proper incentive for folks to submit any final artwork ideas they've got in the hopper.

You mean after we agued, reviewed, and modified for weeks to get that awesome graphical beginning to our motif you don't like it? Dang back to the drawing board! Kids daddy is running to the store for more crayons, be ready to color when I get back.

I dunno, I dig this simple design far more than B00bie's all stylized and professional crappage.

I like it. It really captures the stage that OO is at right now. The artwork should slowly get more refined as we move forward.

Remember back in the early days of OO, when it was just the core group of posters? Those people would never complain about petty stuff like this. Damn these noobs.

Can anyone tell me why on my PC in Opera I see the new logo but on the Mac in Safari I still see phpbb? I did refresh.

Ohohh. Are the evil Macintoshes taking on the mighty octopi kingdom?

Look at the url for the picture itself(in windows right click and properties). What is displayed?

Lee · Post by **Lee** » Thu Nov 11, 2004 10:36 pm

I don't have a properties option on OSX. If I open the image in a new window I get this link: http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... _phpBB.gif

Not that it matters, I am just curious as to why Safari doesn't see the new pic.

Asharak · Post by **Asharak** » Thu Nov 11, 2004 11:04 pm

It's trying to tell you something, Lee. Heck, we're trying to tell you something.

You're not going to be one of the Overlords' Favoured Ones.

I'm quite curious as well. Try it now.

Also do you also get the old logo when you click on the link you posted?

Damnit first the Jeovah Witnesses and now the Octopi lords!

Rip: Yep I get the phpbb image when I open the image in a new window.

Hmmm. Very strange. Anyone else got a Mac with Safari? I'm thinking this may be an isolated to you issue, but it would be nice to be sure.

Lee · Post by **Lee** » Thu Nov 11, 2004 11:46 pm

Hmm...it just showed up...seconds ago when I refreshed.

Blackhawk · Post by **Blackhawk** » Fri Nov 12, 2004 12:17 am

Sounds like Safari uses a caching method to speed up browsing. It keeps the old content around and re-displays it instead of downloading it - or checking to see if it changed. Usually clearing out the cache or manually refreshing fixes such things.

LawBeefaroni · Post by **LawBeefaroni** » Fri Nov 12, 2004 10:58 am

Yes, it's a cacheing thing. The image was replaced on the server as far as I can tell. So http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... _phpBB.gif as phpBB image didn't exist. As the six legged octopus, it did. If you were still getting the phpBB image, it was cached.

hey - it's not everyday you meet an octopus with lips!

JSHAW · Post by **JSHAW** » Sun Nov 14, 2004 7:53 pm

I think it would be kinda fun for forum members that have children get them to draw their version of the OO Octopus and have the image changed on a monthly basis. So there would be 12 different Octopi displayed for the 12 months of the year.

Whadda ya think?

Cam · Post by **Cam** » Tue Nov 16, 2004 9:30 pm

The octopus looks like he sees something he likes.

Further investigation is necessary.
