I've gone off it again. I don't think any of the alternatives are any good either. There was one I liked in the original thread, but I can't remember which one it was now.

That was probably my remodelled Groovehandle logo (which I'm a bit disappointed no body seemed to twig). No Logo would be fine. Logos and brands are grossly overrated*.



*for oval-earth hifi forums :)
 
I don't think so Joel, since yours was one of the poll alternatives:

It was actually one of my favourites, I certainly prefer it to the spectrum one.

Robert, I might change the favicon.ico when I've settled on a logo but I actually quite like the existing one...

one issue I think needs to be addressed is the width of the logo...maybe you should have deisgned a wider one..?? - it just seems a bit lonely (and bare) sitting there by itself in the middle..!
 
Well, I didn't design it ;) . Generally, vB forum logos are roughly that size and sit on the left hand side, usually to allow advertising to appear on the right. I don't think there's a problem with the width. Making it wider would make it out of proportion so it would have to be taller too which I definitely don't want as that takes up too much space.

Oh, you're right. Fine. Sideshow will be sleeping on the floor next to cat litter - just where there's a nice cold draft - when he comes over :D
 
I've taken the liberty of tweaking the logo a little to make it a little more legible.

Joel, yours is the best of a bad bunch. :) I like the "groovyhandle" tag.

That *might* get you onto the sofabed, but no sheets.
 
I'm with sideshowbob on this, all the new logos look tacky/naff/ugly to me (sorry joel, good thing I'm not likely to visit you anytime soon).

My vote goes on the original.

Bah. If you weren't such a nice and decent person, I'd say something rude and disappear in a puff of Lagavullin :)

Well, the one that the most people liked won, and it's where the winning logo should be.

I think it looks pretty cool.

I'll just have to sleep under a pile of Japanese vinyl then...

I must email you soon, I have about a million questions about Good Stuff To Do And Good Places To Go.

Can we not see the animated version? I think that would definitely be better! I mean who doesn't have broadband these days anyhoo?
 
Tenson - the animated version is here (in it's original size):

Unfortunately, it's not just a question of being slow to download for non broadband users, it's a question of bandwidth on the site. Since it's displayed on every page you really want to keep it's size to a minimum. Even the 12K it's at currently is too big IMO - that's bigger than an entire typical page on the PFM forum!

Looks a bit light in the low bass.....

The real problem is that 'Zerogain' means the volume is turned right down, and 'your handle to the missing groove' is nonsense.

It's a shame that 'straightwire.com' is taken. And some greedy bastard has 'swwg.com'. Perhaps 'swwg.net'?
