Hmmm. Rob. (Chuckling quirkly to themselves...) I may be obtuse today, or perhaps culturally deprived...care to elaborate?

Sorry mate - just impressed with your attention to detail and detective skills! I don't even know what day it is sometimes.

It's a shame all this creative talent got constrained by the rules though. But rules is rules.

"Creative talent constrained by rules" is a good definition of commerce, don't you think?

Kevin, first impression:

1. Unreadable typeface. Type should convey its message in the briefest of glances. This is especially important with word legends like "Rick Resource Forum", which don't exactly roll off the tongue...

2. The photo of the FG 360 is sweet, but the distortion is a bit unsettling...

Your efforts are appreciated Kevin.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Thanks!
I think it would be quite an honor to see your own design used for the forum logo. I don't really have any talent for it & there have been some really fine designs posted by those who do have talent, I just thought I'd give it a try.
I also didn't feel I could use other's photos (except for the CW which I copied from ebay-I don't think a forum member bought that particular guitar), so I used pics of ones I own.

I used a version of the 4080 pic for my desktop wallpaper.

I think something with a 4080 would make a great forum logo...it's the best of both worlds
"Rickenbacker!"( I shout it out whenever I spot one)
"Rickenbacker makes the best basses in the world!"
