I figured it was better to have it's own thread, so, ok, I'll start it off....
If you haven't read the following post: http://www.searchengineforums.com/Forum35/HTML/000706.html
Basically, jcokos has been working on the new forums and could use some help with a logo. The guy's a programing wizard.....< Disclaimer >
In no way, shape or form do I consider myself a graphic artist. The following image may offend or possibly even disgust a few of you, so please view at your own risk.
< / Disclaimer > Ok, but seriously, I spent about 10 minutes on it, so be nice. I know it's to tall for the new forum, but I didn't realize until after I made it... To all you talented graphic designers out there, please step up and show your stuff. < img to follow > I can't figure out where to upload the image, so I'll just forward it to someone to put up.

You don't upload the image here, put it on your own server or on a free server and link to it, or to a page containing it (some free servers don't allow direct image links).

jcokos' original post:BTW, I know the logo sucks
I'm a programmer, not an artist. I'm lucky I got it to look as good as it does with only paint shop pro 4.1 in my arsenal !! I think we should have a logo contest for sef, gethigh, the lounge, and webprogramming.... any takers ? The logo has to be transparent against the black background, and fit into the space top-right of the page sort of as you see it now. New URLs http://pub98.ezboard.com/bsearchengineforums19294
http://pub98.ezboard.com/bgethightrafficforums http://pub98.ezboard.com/bjimworldlounge http://pub98.ezboard.com/bwebprogramming78197 These will respond to their proper domain names (searchengineforums.com, gethighforums.com, jimworldlounge.com, web-programming.com) once we make the final changes, and do the actual switch.

The logo spec's from each url:SEF : 467 x 38 px
GHF : 489 x 34 px
Lounge : 471 x 39 px
Web Pgm : 441 x 43 px It would seem to be a max of 489 x 39 px, round that to 500 x 39 px (39 seems to be pushing it a bit) Soooo correct me if I'm wrong but the following is what I get from the info provided: Requirements: size maximum = 500 x 35px logo background must be transparent and work with a black background. Payoff:
You get to see your work on these forums

Yeah...ya like? That's cool, thanks. I was kind of embarrased to post it.  Yeah, I can adjust it or make it for the correct size and transparency, not too hard. I just made it before reading the specs... "I know it's to tall for the new forum, but I didn't realize until after I made it"
