I'm amazed that you guys aren't up in arms over the new header logo.


AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

I was going to complain, but there was no thread to whine in. Thanks for making one. ;) Now I can bitch about...

I don't like the "Amiga. Community. Support." The script font is too "wimpy" and I don't like the sentence fragments. Also, I've always hated the word "community". Why is everything a "community" these days? Also, I don't like... what else... what else... ;)

The main logo is great though. I like the faint keyboard background.

The "serving the Amiga community since 1994" is a definite improvement. Keep it.

(It still has the "wimpy" script and the word "community", but I think in this case, it works.)

Masterstroke - how about rendering the "Serving the amiga community..." tagline in topaz (with a slight scanline effect) :D

I'd go with that, but make sure it is a WB 1.3 topaz! After that, we'll have to argue about what colour it should be. :D

Wayne, I can't even pretend to know what you went through to upgrade the site.

I can. I'm pretending right now - but I look really silly doing it.

Logo looks good, although this thread intrigued me as I didn't know what kvetching meant. Turns out I'm not America, neither am I Jewish!! :-)

I didn't know what kvetching meant either (and coincidentally, I'm not American or Jewish). I assumed "kvetching" had something to do with ketchup. I pictured a Jewish person saying, "Give me the kvetchup and be kvick about it."


(Hey! I can finally use the Multiquote feature. How convenient.)

I just started humming The A-Team theme song. The only problem is, I hate that show. (8 guys shooting at each other with machine guns and NOBODY dies? Give me a break!)

I'd rather go with a Magnum P.I.-type font. Now THAT was a good show.
