The Singaporum Logo

Post by MM Admin » 14th Feb, '08, 15:13

yep, the logo isn't too flash hot at the moment but instead of slaving away ourselves, we thought we'd open it up to everyone.

55px high and a max of 425px wide is what you have to work with.

Transparent background and GIF format (PNG transparency doesn't work too well on IE6)

The rest is up to you !

Here's my humble contribution. The blended edge transparency didn't save too well as a gif, so i had to pre blend it with the background. Because the title bar background is a gradient, not sure if i've got it in the right spot. Only way to tell is to see how it looks on the site.

very Nice !

here's the background bar that gets used in the header if that makes life easy for everyone.

And if anyone has enough knowledge to edit a complete phpbb3 theme, include CSS etc etc, I can make that available.

heh, not yet mate, but you set the bar up high. Looking at it, I reckon we can probably go another 10px higher. Well, I guess the backlground bar I posted is max height.

Jedi,

What does the gray signify? Indonesian wood smoke haze? :P

I like it though.

The grey is the sky... it just looks more grey because of the way i blended the picture with the blue to match the website.

Oh BTW in case anyone is wondering, the original picture is a 360 degree pano of Boat Quay that I made a few years back. :)

I agree. Very easy to get around, clear set up, really well done, congrats. Like the name too, very clever lah.

BTW dearest Jedi, I do like the logo but had no idea it was Boat Quay! Was peering at this morning wondering WTF it was, can you lighten it a bit for us old 32 year olds?
