Let me be the first to comment on the new family-friendly banner at the top of the BBS. I like it. Nice work.
Maybe that explains why the site was glitchy at various times today. Hey Isaac, was the new logo a measure to avoid using line art of the SB figures, or merely a way to put something fresh up? (I'm remembering when Brian was advising against using anything that could be construed as protected intellectual property on the proposed T-shirts, etc.) Just curious, that's all.
It is a little of both reasons. I am trying to stay away from that line art and also tease you all with some elements of the t-shirt design. I am moving ahead with 2 shirt designs. I should have them for sale here by the end of the month. If these sell out I have a artist shirt all lined up.
I don't mind the abbreviation but what about an edited and unedited version? Plus, the skulls sort of have a dash of day of the dead vibe...was that intentional?
To be real honest i'm not feel'n this logo. Seems like it could be a little more SB and not so clean. I think the skulls seem a little played out. With all the NEW types of figures covered here in the threads, it seems like we should have something a little more odd and original. Just my pinion tho - S-OUT
"...Sweet loving death I am waiting for your last breath, lovely death, one last caress..." Misfits 1977 Over and Out.
I think it's at the top of the BRAIN NEWS HOME page, not the top of this page. Blurey blue photo of transp. SB ghost. I agree with SHAPESHIFTA It's rather safe and does not reflect the edgey direction our new vinyl seems to be headed.
I know there are a few artsy types around these parts. Maybe you should have some kind of header contest for both the site and the board that can be voted on by the members - that'd be fun. I know I'd participate in designing some headers.
Originality has alway's paved the way for new classic styles. Even the classics were originals to begin with ! Only time decides what will or will not become classic. Levis were around a long time before they went on to become international.
just showed up for me saturday "early" morning EST. reminds me of university. i dunno. and i'm avoiding some sort of post-modernist rant on originality. heheh, just funnin cuz it's fun.
Now my kids don't have to ask me if that is a cussword up there! My wife still wouldn't let me wear that logo to church. But I would everywhere else!

I like it for the simple fact is that people will have to ask you what "RFSO" means.Then I will tell them its Real Fan Shit Only, Biotch!
