 Re: A new logo
I guess I will just do something boring again, as soon as I find another font I like.
So far it looks like it will involve the Buster-kun with the American flag shorts.
Here's a preview of the site... all subject to change. I need to figure out how to fix the font for the links in the header to be bigger. Grr.

 Re: A new logo
As mentioned earlier, I'd ask my friend if he was willing to change the IM logo. Well, I'm sure he would help if it wasn't for his pc to be broken. I'm sorry. About the new front page: I like the addition of "shops"  . I haven't purchased any legitimate stuff of tp I really need to get a creditcard . . .grrr hehe: "Categories > Uncategorized" (Oh. . .and plz not the Buster-kun with the American flag shorts, please)

 Re: A new logo
I suggest having a blue poppie right next to the title. Instead of the Buster-Kun
INSTANT MUSIC (Insert Blue Poppie here)

I would love to use a blue poppy. But I don't have any of their poppy imagery handy (i.e. scanned or available in high resolution). I could Photoshop some other poppy, but I'm not that good and it just wouldn't be the same. I'd rather use a 'pillows' poppy rather than any old poppy.

 Re: A new logo
I have the Blue Songs with Blue Poppies DVD, I could scan that and you get one of the poppies using photoshop magic.
I think the poppy on Sawao's mustang would be nicer though, more logo-friendly

Thats what I was thinking. The huge One Life sticker. I remember them having a picture of it on the merchandise section of the official site. Someone here must have it also, they could possibly scan it or something.

Sure, that would be great.
I have the poppy sticker and contemplated scanning it, but parts of the drawing are cut off since it's cut to fit a particular shape, so I don't think it would look that great unless I spent time trimming it even more or did something creative with it.

 Re: A new logo
I asked this designer friend of mine for some help. He recommends http://wordpress.org/ if that won't work out for you, he'll be willing to help with the logo. He says: -It's easy to handle (dashboard) -Great user experience -Optimized for all browsers -Easy and quick install

 Re: A new logo
Your friend and I think alike, that is in fact what I am using for the new site. I think something got lost in translation. What I want is a custom image to replace the images at the top, Wordpress is just a blog/site management tool. Anyway, I found a friend who does digital art who is going to try to come up with something for me.

 Re: A new logo
I'm totally late to this again, but are we still working on this? Because I would still like to help with the design.
