the logo

forever_lost · 20-08-2010, 02:43 AM

I was sitting here being bored...just looking at the RYL logo above.
I don't know if I'll find an answer to this but I'm just wondering if there's any meaning to the colors in it, or that the text has a handwritten feel, or the way the background looks like it's trying to cover up the black, and the edges aren't straight. And what did old logos look like on the older vesions of the site?

I'm glad you said "damn" since the logo comes from an effort to replace "Damn Cat" with "Damn Cow"

Moo

I actually don't like the logo because it's so big and so obvious to anyone who might be sneaking a look at what site I'm on. So I always scroll down whenever I open a new page to hide it. Lol. Sorry Harley :p

i would really really REALLY love it if you could close the logo at the top so that it looked like any old generic forum.

The logo is so big, and so easily readable, and its on every damn page.

This. It's strange that a site that has things like the 'panic button' has its logo so easily readable from quite far away, and on every single page.

I wish there was an option that would let you choose whether or not to have the logo appear. I think it would be more helpful than the panic button. Especially for slow computers because the panic page might not start loading quick enough. Some computers that are really slow have trouble even scrolling fast. Maybe if it could be smaller or in a corner at the top?

I'm not going to lie, I didn't even know there was a panic button in the first place. I think there should just be another skin to choose from where the logo isn't as large. That way, people that like the logo or don't mind it can keep it that way, and people that aren't so keen on it can use the other one.
