The New Look is GREAT Steven!

Love it! and thankyou for the walkthrough in the design of our forums new logo!
its great to see the processes :D

and i LOVE the idea of stickers! who knows steven, you might be able to make some money off this site!
as opposed to just spending money on it! :D

or at least be able to support itself... for some time?

That big white rectangular image should be flash animated :D
Always we hope someone else has the answer.

I too would like to say great work Steven and Jeff for all the hard work you put into keeping this forum going. I need all the help I can get. What I like is no question is too dumb to get an answer from any of you and all the members. :) Best forum I have joined. Thank you all.

The name was unreadable when I first looked at it, on account of the background items showing through. Why is there an 'S' instead of a dot after bonsai and what is the purpose of the addition to the n? All the earlier comments are meritorious in view of the effort involved but I'm confused or I'm missing something. :oops: :cry:

What he said: life in the real world is a little hectic right now... Nonetheless, I must say that I really like the new look! Good work, Team Oz!!!

wow... I love the header, can we move the search bar so it doesn't clobber the last plant. No plant (or stylist) deserves that.

I especially love the shadow reflection of the pots... so elegant. nice little touches are priceless.
