This situation makes me tremendously sad, particularly the loss of Image Reaper, who had some very valid points, I thought, and who has never been anything but a courteous, valuable member here. Everyone needs to read a bit more about logotypes and symbols in marketing and advertising before writing a negative response to a logo off as irrational. They're the single most important "faces" companies of all types present to the public in representing their images and attitudes. Whether or not you believe this is true, they do provoke immediate, almost subliminal responses, and that's why Image was lobbying for a more positive one here, I'm sure.

That all being said, obviously, the owners of the site have done--and will continue to do--precisely what they want. I'm quite at peace with that. What is much more grievous to me is the loss of an adult gentleman whose courtesy and contributions made these boards a better place to be for everyone.

Vaya con Dios, Image Reaper, and a very happy holiday season to you, too!
