My god, TWC's color pallate choice for YWT's new graphics is NOT the smartest nor the best... This was tricky to convert properly...Thoughts?

I like it! :)

Good job, Jesse! :D Do you mind posting the PSD file here...if it's alright with you, I might tweak it slightly. :thumbsup:

It's still in the "concept" phase, but... thoughts?

Mixed feelings on the flags inside the circle. Might just need some time to adjust to it. Everything else looks swell!

Can you spot the tweaks? :unsure: :P As you can tell, I wasn't kidding about seeing if we could make very minor tweaks. What I have done is changed the font of the "&" (because I felt the original one in BankGothic font "stuck out" a little) and "stretched out" twc|classics because it looked just a little too condensed. :yes:

If you all like my tweaks, I will post the PSD file here, and I would also need to change all the logos slightly and re-post them. Please excuse me for being very picky like this...sometimes that's how I am. :blushing:

seems simple enough to tweak on my own if everyone likes it, but I kind of like the original myself...

The ampersand never really stood out to me. I would much prefer it being gone altogether, and instead having the two logos either being separated by a divider, or have each logo being on each of the two sides of the webpages.

I agree! I really like those changes. Lets go with it!

Andy's modified logos will go in to effect after the tornado outbreak, or Monday, whichever is later. :)

Glad to hear, Jesse! :biggrin: Patrick, just so you're not disappointed, they're not modified very much. I just made a few tweaks to make things look cleaner and better. :thumbsup:

That's fine, Andy.  I'll see if I can spot the minor tweaks.  Thanks for your work!
