Honestly, I'm not impressed with the ActiveMQ site design enough to make a change from what we currently have. It still looks pretty drab to me. I like our sites color variation. If we want to make a dramatic change away from non-typical OSS drudgery and towards something more professional, I

I love the idea of a new logo and already like some of the proposed designs. I love that you love our existing stuff and I'm as resistant to change as the next guy, but the way we spell iBATIS and the logo are dated, are less professional than I (for one) would like them to be and they're

Dude has mad graphics skills. ;-) I like them. I agree about the element heaviness. Perhaps an outline, almost like a pencil trace. Something that prints easily and shows up clearly in both black and white (negative transparency?). Clinton On 3/5/07, Joakim Erdfelt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
