Uh oh Brandon, don’t tell me it’ll be as drastic a change as when we went from the tree style threads to this new one?!?!?!?!?!
vb 3.0 is supposedly going to be linear (like this one) AND tree-threaded (like our old one)…
and you, the user, can pick how you want to view the threads.
Among a bunch of other new features – enough to bump the version number to 3.
Its set to be out in beta in the 2nd Quarter of 2002 [my guess is late June -> mid July]

**Hi all, Just wanted to give you all a full HTML view of the two that seem to get the most votes.
**
oh…wow. I initially voted for three, but now seeing it on there, i don’t think either of them look that good with the preexisting colors. :rolleyes: keep the old one, brandon. There’s nothing wrong with it.
Im glad nobody voted for 7!!! Cause its terrible!!
(I made it)
Hmm… someone vote for #7 
Anyways… #1 looks the best, but there really isn’t any need for a new graphic. The existing one looks fine… unless someone comes up with something that’s so amazing that it should be up there…
I feel the logo is fine as it is. The only thing I dislike about it is the sudden way that it just cuts off. Brandon, all that you have to do is just round that logo off and add a black bar to the top so the effect is constant - make it look like this:
The CD logo is fine as it is - simple and elegant. I like how 1 ‘attaches’ itself to the orange VBulletin part, but the black/dark-grey outline of the orange ‘attachments’ doesn’t fit and the font is kinda bleh - it’s not evenly spaced and it looks kinda crooked. 3 is awesome, except for the fact that the white outline kinda blurs “Chiefdelphi” and makes it hard to read.
My advice, just add some rounded edges to the logo and a black bar across the top of the VBulletin header to make the effect constant
when is the new logo going to be announced? it’s past the 1 year anniversary
Its tomorrow.
er, because my server’s down for the day, I’ll just attach that image that shows what I meant rather than just link it… here ya guys go

sheish SuperDanMan
where were you 3 weeks ago…
that idea may just take the cake.
Apparently not on this thread 
I actually just saw this thread from the bulletin e-mailed out
I like SuperDanman’s idea…plus it would be easier than going through a new “look” or picking which one actually works better…

Yes, me too.
If he would’ve seen the other thread and voiced this idea, I would’ve gone for it right away. I apologize for going through all this, to just keep the same graphic.
I did change it a bit for a little change.
Don’t worry, as I’ve said, once vBulletin 3.0 comes out, all of it will most likely change. I am going to try to keep it as easy for me to upgrade as I can, hense no big changes.
Anyway, thank you for all your suggestions and submissions to this poll …
hmmm, looks a little awkward with the curve being a bit blurry. Everything else on the site is a straight transition from one color to the other - not sure if it’s just me or what, but my eyes are drawn immidiately to the blur. It just looks outa place. Think you can make the curve and the the black bar more, er, I guess the word would be smooth rather than blurry? Other than that, nice job 
Yeah… I suppose that does look a little funny.
[edit] there. hope ya don’t mind, but instead of wasting my time, i just ‘borrowed’ your clear curved edge
The gray b/g in the logo is a different gray then the background of the page. What kind of operation are you trying to run here, for pete’s sake? I’d expect something like this on mismatchedcolors.org, but not here.
Also, the number 47 gets harder to read as it goes across the top. And “Chief Delphi” isn’t capitalized. And you forgot the space between the two words. And… um… the period is square.
That’s all I got.
Otherwise, great!
looks like brandon won!!!

Looks good, but change is hard for most. I understand.
