Not to be picky or anything, but on the home page for 68kMLA, the Apple logo in the background calls to mind the G4s. Shouldn't the beauty of the 6-color logo be displayed instead of this newfangled nonsense?

That is a good point! Maybe not in bold color(colour) but maybe a muted background Apple logo in color (colour)! I had to make sure you Aussies and Canadians didn't get confused, (color/colour)!!!!!!

if someone would like to fetch me a multi-colored apple of that size, i'd photoshop (yes, photoshop is a verb) it, and the "G4-type" logo would be down in a flash...

although i couldn't find an apple logo as large as my original "g4-esque", I did some modifying to the text size to compensate. The first image is what's on the website right now. The two after that are the ones with the new logo. (the coloration of the pictures site would need to be changed if we go with one with the old-skool apple logo)

So do people want me to change the title picture, or leave it as it is? I like the login and logout pictures, so I'll leave them.

this 6 color thing is for the website. Talgeese was complaining that the main image for the pictures version is too G4-eque...these forum pics are fine

Yeah, but it's NOT apple garamond! It's Adobe Garamond Condesned Demibold, a very close approximation!

That is AppleGaramond, but the old version (that was all spacey). I had to change the leading in Fireworks to make it look like the new(er) one.

the color logo however nice doesn't lend itself to the army theme, I need on in camo for perfection. Also I though I would add, can one use the logo on their website, if approved by the members, and also that it links to the website....What are the legal problems that this would arise?

thanks!
I've put a second one up with the 'mission statement', it needs to be cleaned up a bit...I only have the narrow of the garamond fonts, didn't transfer well.

no. no. no.

**shakes head in disbelief**

That camo is not going to fly, son. It is far too middle-of-nowhere-crosscountry-team-shirt-esque
Wasn't that big "G4-esque" Apple the reason why Tallgeese was complaing? The 6-color one is made (but not uppped on the site), so why are we beating a dead um...PC?

'twas only a scribble or two, however I do think the 6 color is the way to go.

I agree a 6 color apple diplays our way of being different and all.

I hadn't been to the 'with pictures' website in a while, and I just noticed that where the grey logo was, there is a broken pic icon. Is it transition now or what?
