Ah, ok...now I know what you meant about following the L...yes, that looks
better.
darn it...I thought by saving as xcf, Gimp would remember the colors, etc ....
:(
I believe I used Arial bold italic for the text. I think I started with the
blues in the article I quoted, but ended up making them darker. The colors from
the article were 6291c0 and cce6f9. Sorry about that...I should have noted
everything...I don't play around with the Gimp much :(

Subject: Re: [AOLSERVER] Minor facelift to aolserver.com
OK, so I added one more horizontal line (so now there are 4 instead of
3), and added a slight single pixel step, to try and match the slant of
the "L".

I'd like to redo the original .xcf - what font face and size did you
use? Colors, etc. (Can you tell _I'm_ not a pixel jockey? I can't
tell just from looking at what you did ... heh.)
