ParticipantSomething simple. It should fit into the background image on the Twenty-Eleven theme if that is what you're using.

ParticipantI drew the cannons in Inkscape and it wasn't easy. 🙁

ModeratorArsenal FC would like to speak with you about copyright infringement.

ParticipantOh I see, they own the rights to all cannon iconography. Ok. LOL

ParticipantDonnie,I like it but I would put Battles and Book Reviews in Large font and the web address in small. Other than that I think it looks great.
DonaldBaker
ParticipantNo problem.

ParticipantSo Scout are you going to use this logo or should I be working on something else?

ParticipantYeah, I tried it today but for some reason the .png does not render when I put it into the header.

Just rename it to whatever image was there to begin with (in the same folder of course). For example if your old image is a logo.gif, just rename it to logo.gif and overwrite the old image. Your theme might have an option to upload a new logo, but it might force you to crop it. I would just manually replace the old file.

ParticipantI played with it in Paint and got it to work. It is up on the site now. Thanks for your help, I suck at graphics. But I am a pretty good shot and that is what counted in my chosen career.

ParticipantYou lost a little pixel quality but not too bad.

KeymasterThe thing with that logo on Patrick's blog is that it looks like it was vertically stretched a bit, including the font. The wheels on the cannons look like eggs rather than circles. Was this on purpose?
DonaldBaker
ParticipantYou know now that you mention it, I guess I did make the wheels too eliptical. The wheels were kinda hard to make. Inkscape is great but it does have some quirks. I might try creating one in Illustrator since I have CS4 now.

ParticipantThe wheels are kind of stretched. The original file was 1000×244 and the latest version of the 2011 theme has a header size of 1000×288.

ParticipantI knew I was a little off in the height but I didn't think that would matter. Guess I was wrong oops.
