Some of those are really cool

@gandalf3 I like the second and third frames in that gif.

Um

Which are those?

:P

@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ good point (did not think of that)

:P

I consider the first frame @gandalf3's original logo idea.

yes

^^ theres the whole lot

ah

The first one being an unpublished first concept :P

The first one is odd

exactly :/

@gandalf3 you and me both. I have no doubt we will come up with a great logo.

@X-27 should try, just for the hilarity of it

@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ NUKE IT!!

XD

lol

@gandalf3 Which one is your favorite?

perhaps the last one

Though it's almost the same as the first one..

@gandalf3 what did you think of @DalekMaker's?

Interesting

theres the right link :)

did you like any of my ideas? (my first is my favorite.)

What are you using to make these?

(answer should be Blender)

inkscape..

But I did use blender for some things

\o/

;)

@gandalf3 All of them awesome, except for the first

Whats wrong with the first one?

All of them are neat except the first two

the fourth one looks awesome, like a shutter on a camera...

I have some doubts about how it will look small though..

^^ Shaded wrapping paper experiment

@gandalf3 way better than their ugly primitives - it looked like it might be wallpaper form preschool that they came up with before.

I hope we can get some artwork in the header

@gandalf3 you know my feelings on that...

wait, I do?

What are they? ;)

@gandalf3 NO. keep the artwork, and contests out of the header.

both user artwork, and a contest is good, but not there.

why?

What's the point of having a contest if you don't get to show off the winner?

I, for one dont like photo.se, header. A nice simple (and smaller) header like is more standard on most sites would suit us fine.

I'm not a big fan of the photo.se header either tbh

very cramped

that is kind of my point, how would you add a image (of any realistic) size and yet keep the header normal?

because when you expand the header, it just becomes 10% of the screen space a wast after the first time you saw the picture.

You could probably get away with making it even smaller

You don't have to show the whole image in the header, a cropped thing will do

@gandalf3 case in point, do you come to BSE for the header art (no, that is what BN is for) you are here to answer questions, which means scrolling past the header.

If it's interesting, you'll click on it to see the whole thing

@David True, but I like seeing header art

And I don't tend to go places just to see header art

If it was hidden away somewhere else, I'd likely rarely see any of it

@gandalf3 yep, so why should we wast 10% of the screen space (and the most visible space) on something that is very secondary?

Well if we could, I'd suggest putting it on the side or something

Anyway, the currently proposed header isn't much slimmer

@gandalf3 the side bar would be a good spot for it, same place as the comunity ads go.

I thought the header would be a good place since a couple people noted that it felt empty

@gandalf3 small and empty is not a bad thing (I like the clean look)

room mode changed to Public: anyone may enter and talk

@DalekMaker long story...

@DalekMaker Back when he made a custom theme you could install

@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ Okay

@gandalf3 Wasn't that you?

yes

I just assumed that since it was a long story it dated back to that

when you have 6 chat rooms open, mild disorientation is an expected side-effect.. :/

ok

@NᴏᴠɪᴄᴇIɴDɪsɢᴜɪsᴇ No, but that's as good a story as any

:P

lol
