Playing with a new logo.

[Dos_Box]

Just playing with this one sent in by DMcCoy. I felt we needed some colour on the start page.

[Geoff]

Green and silver is bad.

[Ric_]

I know that it's probably just a rough draft but the shading looks really bad on my monitor and it's also a little narrow.

 

Good effort though DMcCoy!

[E1uSiV3]

the wiring colours are in the right order tho...

 

/me walks off singing the RJ45 song...

[Dos_Box]

I'm glad I didn't make this one!

@EluS1V3: Depends upon whether you use T-568A or T-568B scheme of wiring

Its a png, I suspect your os has substandard support for true colour png files like mine

 

Its the same size as the old one, but I didn't realise the blue wasn't a background colour. Just some fun with Xara Xtreme

 

Edit, this is probably the right size. Edit2 Tidying broken gif - missed the transparency at the end - its not like you can see transparent bits

[Ric_]

@DMcCoy: Probably right there, although Firefox usually does a good job at rendering PNGs - Windows obviously does impose its restrictions (especially when running your monitor at 1600x1200).

 

The 'new improved' one looks better mind.

[Dos_Box]

That gif is broken... I'll convert it to a PNG.

[Dos_Box]

ooops. My bad.

[russdev]

very nice will update the logo for wiki tonight

Looked fine here. Gentoo Linux + Firefox 1.5 beta.

Is that why some threads are 2 screens wide and others are half a screen wide at the mo?

 

[DMcCoy]

I've just noticed that there is a small transparent section on the left, I'll edit this post in a minute with the corrected version

[DMcCoy]

I can find a ruler and some cat 5 if you want . I did try to draw the whole plug, but it starts getting a bit complicted with angles and transparent bits

 

 

Edit: Oh dear, must be getting old - I mean cat 6 of course.

[MkII]

Yeah - get wif it

 

here's one for ya t'copy

[Ric_]

@mark: I sincerely hope that you didn't take that photo! (esp. at 11pm!)

[MkII]

Hey - I have worse ones!

[Ric_]

Back on topic - if you have your browser fill a screen at resolution 1600x1200, you get a white band on either side of the logo. This didn't happen with the old logo.

Well some of us haven't managed to get TFTs that have a resolution that big yet.

 

I stretched it onto my second monitor instead . It appears that the box Auto resizes, but also has a minimum width, which is rather odd.

[Geoff]

Yeah, 1600x1200 here (19" CRT on a Matrox G450) except the box is always stuck to the left side of the screen leaving a mass of whiteness on the right side. I guess thats because I'm using Firefox on Linux and its more anal about the html.

[Ric_]

Twin NEC MultiSync LCD 2080UX+ here running off a piece of *$#! ATI card (may try and swap that ). I'm running Firefox 1.0.7 on Windows if that helps.

 

Just dug out IE too and it does the same with the logo

[tarquel]

Am i missing the problem with it?

 

I like it regardless though

 

N.

[kingswood]

I like it.

 

Nice one. All networky and cably (is that a word?).

 

Well done.

 

Paul :-)
