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!

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

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:

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!

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.

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.
