Do you have the Illustrator file for the latest logo?

Here it is. So boring that you might have just overlooked it! I call it faviconcept. Just a simple 16x16 pixel tree in three shades of pre-approved Randomland green. Knock it and/or try for yourself (AI file attached)

I like it. We should use it! So lush and tiny.

A slight change: can you notice it?

I can. Much smoother points on the bows. I like it better. It looks even more tree like. Use it!

So when is the mobile-friendly version of Randomland coming?

Aha! I'm not the only one!

I'd like to create a mobile theme. It makes more sense to do it in Drupal 7 (the API is very different). Unless, of course, we just get stuck using 6 because we're too lazy to upgrade.

How are you liking your new phone? I want to play with it :)

I could start a new topic...but why? When I can just dredge up old ones!

I'm starting to play around with theming. In some ways, I'm less picky than I used to be (ie fixed width nay be tolerable). But I'm more picky in other ways...like requiring something mobile friendly and having stuff looks like it was designed on this side of the millennial divide.

Anywho, first order of business: colors. I'm feeling the greens and browns. Perhaps even the autumny shades of orange and yellow. I'll try cooking something up on one of those color-palette sites.

Opinions?

Sounds good to me. Another thing... the mobile theme wants to quote who you are replying to. We should fix that.

Yeah it does. It's kind of silly. Which is a nice word for stupid.

I was actually thinking about Drupal theming, but we should theme them very similarly, I opine. Both will need some help.

Should we mock up a screenshot or two? I'm not good at Photoshop...also I like having the cart before the horse. It worked for Porsche...
