The Canonical "Amiga.org header Topaz text" poll

Ok guys,

Time to agree or disagree.  Put up or shut up.

Here's a poll to decide whether the header logo for Amiga.org stays with Topaz font (the defacto Amiga font) or goes with something more modern/traditional such as Georgia (the "AMIGA" logo font).

Since I can never make anyone happy, here's how this will go.

I will post this poll, then stop it around 100 votes (200 if it gets spirited).  If, at the end, there is a CLEAR and DECISIVE victory for one side or the other, say 70, then the font will follow the direction of the poll results.

If at the end of the voting, there is no clear victor, then phooey on all of you and it'll be dealer's choice.  Keeping in mind I may actually rotate the logo for holidays and such.

Either way, no more kvetching about it.

Deal?
That's ok for me. I don't like the current logo, I'd prefer the other one "AMIGA" (upper case, italics) logo...

Thank you Wayne for giving us the opportunity to vote and decide.

Cheers

I do like Topaz, but I don't really think it is appropriate. If I came across a site that used Topaz, I would probably assume it was a website dedicated to 'retro' things.

Can't we use the same font that was used on the XOOPS site?
I second that!

Which amiga logo? That one?


Thanks DJBase. That's exactly what I voted for.

Hopefully Wayne will clarify this is the other option to the users or whoever votes/reads this thread, as they already have a sample on the top home page.

Cheers!

Wouldn't it be easier to just have an option for every user to display the logo they want? :D

Keep on dreamin'....
