The logo link is gone, here's why...

[Michael Morris]

I changed the way the center banner logo displays - it's now set at the style template level instead of in the banner. Yesterday I had to change the Sci-Fi & Fantasy links. That meant changing 17 iterations of the header file. That's just too much work.

By moving the banner into the style template I seperate what needs to be changed. Now I can change a link in the header site wide (almost, ENclassic still has it's own header) without having to change 30 files at the same time, just 1 file.

We really don't need to link the image - what with the links VBulletin itself provides and the links in the banner it was redundant.

As to the globe swap - I don't have an original copy of the globe Morrus used for the current logo. I've swapped it for a different one I do have. This makes editting new iterations of the logo less of a headache for me. Again, I'm sorry for the inconvenience but this is a change aimed towards making producing new materials easier.

Comments welcome, and I do have the originals in reserve if you insist on going back. However going back makes things a lot harder on me in the future.

Michael, I've asked you before to check with me before changing my logo.

Now I have a new logo (which I didn't want) and, more importantly, the top of the messageboards loadly proclaims that I'm illiterate with the word "Messagboards".

Please restore them.

Yeah, I was also getting kinda confused whether "Morrus' D&D/d20 News & Reviews Site" was misspelled, and it was really supposed to be "Morris' D&D/d20 News & Reviews Site".

Even I don't find that funny hong...

Russ, I honestly thought you and the other mods would notice or say something while sorting threads yesterday - I made the switch while the threads where being sorted... :sigh:

Michael, remember what I said about "Never surprise us"? Changing a logo without permission is a really, really bad idea. Yes, even when it's a pretty logo.

It wasn't my intention to surprise anyone. You guys had the boards closed yesterday, so I took the opportunity to clean up the formatting even as you cleaned up the index. Didn't you get my PM's on this? I honestly thought that if there was a problem you guys would let me know BEFORE you reopened the boards!!!

I posted this message while the boards where closed, didn't you see it?? It would have been hard to miss as the only new (and therefore highlighted) post.

I'm sorry. I'll make sure you guys here me next time I speak.

Hmm if I can make a suggestion Michael; don't assume that no reply means it's ok, assume that no reply means your message hasn't been seen yet.
