    oh lord.



    but, for the record, I have to say I really like it.

    Although, perhaps the red writing should be blue. Doesn't stand out too well in red IMO.

    //steams into frey


    not bad

    comments:

    Does it resize automatically or will I forever miss the figures at the edges?

    is there not something more....subtle we can use instead of the flag?

    is it not a bit bland?

    Normal screen res, you mean? 800 x 600

    Remember, these PCs are WORK PCs and some of us arent allowed to be messing around with the resolution.

    Okay...constructive comments from a design point of view..

    1) The flag is a cliche that should be avoided..I'm afraid asthetically the union jack and Star wars do not go

    2) I'm no overly keen on the font...or maybe it's the colour, how about making it more 3D and doing it in silver with a slight suggestion of a reflection of Darth Vader?

    3) Less is more is good...but I'm not a 100% sure on the compostion..

    4) Personally I would avoid all suggestion of either Star Wars or the UK and just do something that would make you smile when you entered every morning...ie crap charactures of the members looking like the silliest band of jedi knights that ever exsisted...

    Remember the job of a designer is not to re-arrange..it's to re-invent..

    Paul, you need to make it 800 pixels across... in-fact, a little less than that to take into consideration the scrollbar.

    I like it being UK influenced.


    I thought that was the point.

    Thats why I had the Rebel Monkey in mines...you could hardly see the flag and it had a monkey.

    Aruns suggestion would still have a UK influence if we were all caracatures dressed as jedi's...even with maybe straightjackets on...since its supposed to be the Padded Cell.

    Although, I prefer the logo on our website with the XXXX in it.

    And the Font is the EP1 font Arun.

    So the resolution isn't just me... I'm running 1024x800 here at work and it still was off the right hand side...

    You'll need to make it no more than 1024 res, maybe even just 800 perhaps. The one here on these boards is fine. How does it appears on everyone else's?
