Re: Forum moved to new host
Good job with all the lastest adjustments!
I found the link of the picture 'until 5 posts, possible spammer' displays as broken (at least on my web browser). Unless it is planned to revive that picture, it should now possibly replaced by a suitable non-vanity Rank.

I'll get on my tasks soon. I was trying to stay out of the way during the busy construction. Looks really good!

Re: Forum moved to new host
Ciao Jeff!
I tried to make a logo for your forum. I hope you like it!
If you want to use it you have to change the extension in the file imageset.cfg:
img_site_logo = site_logo.png

Re: Forum moved to new host
I already made a similar proposal at the very beginning of this thread with the offer to include the 'Denial' caption (and the '[Return Home]' caption of course as well), with perspective correctly applied to the VIC-20 logo, and with the necessary background colour - but what do we get instead ...?
The old logo turned into unsharp mush by multiple resize steps!

I like saver71's logo... It certainly looks better than whatever happened to mine!

With the logo made by me, the head of the forum would be like this:

Re: Forum moved to new host
I propose someone makes a full width banner. Nothing too fancy but just something that goes all the way across the forum banner area. Maybe something including the reversed chicken head logo and a nice picture of Vicman from the manuals and the Megacart box. That Travolta look is really celebratory (and friendly). I know it's probably all a bit overstated and that's not what this place is about but I thought I'd put it out there since Jeff hasn't even started on it!

Re: Forum moved to new host
Sorry, guys. Real life is really serious lately. I haven't been able to do much more than copy the old image files to the new server (a temporary step, i have no intention of keeping it that way). The logo, as it is now, makes me feel like my vision is failing. hahaha Be patient, please.
saver71, I love your logo. I also like the idea of a banner. I want to make sure all of the foundation work is stable before really focusing on cosmetic upgrades. I welcome and appreciate all of your input.

Re: Forum moved to new host
The 'Forum' link on the 'sleeping elephant' page seems to have died, I get a 404 error.
Is there a new front page or do we just link directly to the forum now?

Thanks, we are waiting for the domain to settle and will take care if this issue continues.buzbard wrote:The 'Forum' link on the 'sleeping elephant' page seems to have died, I get a 404 error.
