    I have temporarily skinned the forums with free stuff. Its better than the default (which default is awesome for work mode) but we need ideas.

    I want suggestions on color palette, logos, themes, whatever... you get the idea! :D

    Instead of "The Inglorious Bastards" you could change it to "Unoriginal Bastards".

    Didn't show for me on Chrome. Had to copy url and do it.

    And I think the OP means someone sitting down and doing it by hand.

    Suggestively, (lol i didnt get a red line under that) Maybe something with like 1000 copy pasted cheesy gamers or something oO
    I'll let the thought roll in my head. Oh, and I WOULD RATHER it be PG 13ish.

    Something like this? I can probably come up with something. Although I wouldn't recommend using the Swastika. Maybe we could use an alternate symbol in there.

    Im thinking we will need to have something/background behind the logo that fades off like the logo currently at the top. Thoughts? Opinions?

    the other part of the text needs to also feel "used" ie. the eagle makes the text around it look beat up.

    Background could go transparent, then you can port around text color, BG's for the game you are playing.

    Although IMO it should be decided on colors now, rather than later.

    thanks for the feedback. and yes, the background will be transparent. more grunge overall, perhaps.

    Thought we were suppose to mention i someway that resembles chris...... Guess that one got missed.

    Grunge would probably do well as a background. Sharpen/stand out the letters, Grunge BG for w/e need be implemented. I thought about this after looking at it again as well, did you want to fade the O ? First thing my eye is drawn for due to the "not dirty effect"

    If you want to run up a series and just drop them when you get a chance feel free to.

    Side note: Why a two headed eagle anyways?
