Too tall, sorry.

― Graham (graham), Monday, 3 February 2003 16:26 (twenty-one years ago) link

and the ones that end in 'yo', where are they?

― g-kit (g-kit), Monday, 3 February 2003 16:27 (twenty-one years ago) link

I'm sensing an anti-Canadian bias here. ;)

Corporate branding is about having a very specific logo and using it everywhere. This is having multiple random logos and only have them on the entrance page. You see the difference? What's going on now is creative, silly, and fun, and not at all scary or off-putting. (In fact, if you want to go too far with it, you can talk about the ILX aleologo as parodying and taking power away from the tradition logo concept. This is hooey but it's the general idea.)

Yes! I am pro-random-ILX-logo generator!
How many can you have in there, Graham?

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Monday, 3 February 2003 17:05 (twenty-one years ago) link

please can we not have mitchs?

The one I did with the devil head is small enough isn't it?

― Chris V. (Chris V), Monday, 3 February 2003 17:09 (twenty-one years ago) link

Too tall I mean.
As many as you like Sarah.
Mitch's?

― Graham (graham), Monday, 3 February 2003 17:13 (twenty-one years ago) link

I could live with the twee heart one but the dog one is freaking me out, dunno why!

:(

Graham what are the size limitations?

― Chris V. (Chris V), Monday, 3 February 2003 17:14 (twenty-one years ago) link

What did you mean by this then, Graham?

Would everyone be happy if I put some more up and then take them all down at the end of the week?

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Monday, 3 February 2003 17:14 (twenty-one years ago) link

There's no limit on the number of images, it's just that some people are objecting to there being a logo at all so we should probably stop this at the end of the week and go back to text.

No real size limit, it just needs to look nice in that space at the top.

― Graham (graham), Monday, 3 February 2003 17:21 (twenty-one years ago) link

so mine are shite. oh well, i tried.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Monday, 3 February 2003 17:31 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yay Kim, you're in there now!

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:43 (twenty-one years ago) link

hey SOME people are objecting but i notice a lot more people actually LIKE the logos - why oh why oh why must we always pander to a minority of fun-hataz in life ala the government?

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:55 (twenty-one years ago) link

Why not set this up as a cookie option from the Settings page? "Show logo yes/no". Set it automatically to "no", and have people opt in? Would that even be workable?

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Monday, 3 February 2003 22:59 (twenty-one years ago) link

hahaha we r all mentalists

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Monday, 3 February 2003 23:02 (twenty-one years ago) link

Oh, hey. Neat! It's weird the way it looks BIGGER out there somehow.

Bunnies, bunnies it must be bunnies!
...or maybe midgets.

― Alfie (Alfie), Friday, 7 February 2003 11:26 (twenty-one years ago) link

Awwww! That is so cute!!!

― smee (smee), Friday, 7 February 2003 11:30 (twenty-one years ago) link

who created that animated bunny in the first place?

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 7 February 2003 13:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

I think it started here, on a Japanese page dedicated to a rabbit called Oolong, who has since gone to bunnyheaven.

― Alfie (Alfie), Friday, 7 February 2003 13:04 (twenty-one years ago) link

I vote for Alfie's to be the permanent logo!

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 7 February 2003 18:28 (twenty-one years ago) link

So where now for the logo? Should we go back to text?

― Graham (graham), Friday, 21 February 2003 12:08 (twenty-one years ago) link

I don't want a logo actually.

― Anna (Anna), Friday, 21 February 2003 12:17 (twenty-one years ago) link

text is good

― Ed (dali), Friday, 21 February 2003 12:18 (twenty-one years ago) link

I'm happy with it as it is. I like the transcience of not having a set one, but a selection.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Friday, 21 February 2003 12:19 (twenty-one years ago) link

Logo's are for squares. We'll have a mission statement next.

― Pete (Pete), Friday, 21 February 2003 12:20 (twenty-one years ago) link

No logo

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Friday, 21 February 2003 12:50 (twenty-one years ago) link

I'm happier without a logo too (no disrespect to logo-makers of course).

― Tim (Tim), Friday, 21 February 2003 12:51 (twenty-one years ago) link

The logos always make me smile. Especially the dog one.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Friday, 21 February 2003 12:53 (twenty-one years ago) link

Thanks, Jerry, for supporting my dog.

― Mandee, Friday, 21 February 2003 20:47 (twenty-one years ago) link

What about an option to turn them on/off. I prefer text, but if they're here to stay, then I'll make one too!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Friday, 21 February 2003 20:51 (twenty-one years ago) link

I love the logos. Why do so many of you hate fun??

― Mark C (Mark C), Friday, 21 February 2003 21:07 (twenty-one years ago) link

How about no logo on the ilxor.com home page unless you're logged in?

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Friday, 21 February 2003 21:09 (twenty-one years ago) link

What Spencer and Tracer sed, and what I suggested many moons ago: make it an option under settings that you have to turn on before you start seeing them.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Friday, 21 February 2003 21:21 (twenty-one years ago) link

Tracer's point is very good. But I like the logos. Although if people start making fake pop-up ads...

― Chris P (Chris P), Friday, 21 February 2003 23:16 (twenty-one years ago) link

Sorry Sean, Spencer, Tracer, I have better things to do than build a whole infrastructure around a logo that only few people would be able to see (and then keep it up to date etc). Sleep, for instance. So we're back to text.

― Graham (graham), Friday, 21 February 2003 23:31 (twenty-one years ago) link

didn't mean to make trouble for you Graham. Just expressing a preference. I bow to your mad .php skillz and respect your time and efforts. 4 Real.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Friday, 21 February 2003 23:38 (twenty-one years ago) link

Awww, oh well...it was fun while it lasted. And yes, we ph34r your skillz!

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Saturday, 22 February 2003 14:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

― koogs (koogs), Thursday, 20 April 2006 15:08 (eighteen years ago) link

it can easily be recreated by anyone with the Vag Rounded Bold font.

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Thursday, 20 April 2006 15:22 (eighteen years ago) link

actually: http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/adobe/vag-rounded/ lets you type in your own text and gives you a nice 72pt image in exchange.
