I just hit refresh and the new Magic Café logo popped onto my screen. Very nice!
Never criticize someone else until you have walked a mile in their shoes. Then, when you do criticize them, you will be a mile away from them and you will have their shoes.

Yeah I just downloaded Firefox browser and noticed it too! Looks great! Looks like a million bucks! Yes that's very slick. And I just got the broadcast message that it's a "scratch and sniff" - smells like a magic shop! Go ahead and try. Don't be shy but watch the static.
I was actually going to ask if it had been there a while and was just seeing the new sign with the latest Javascript I downloaded. I was waiting to hear others say it's been up for a couple of years. |

Yep, I had about 30 min or so between Café visits, and in that time it had changed. Just like magic!

Hey folks,
Steve asked me to redesign his logo. The original was designed by Steve and he did a nice job for what he had at hand to work with. He came to me to create a new design which would represent a design as if it were created in a true neon sign style. I have many years experience as a Sign Designer so I was able to create the look he wanted...after about a thousand edits My task included maintaining a bit of flavor from the original and to actually work the layout, once again, as a sign company would actually do as if were to hang in a window. I am sure there will be folks who like the old one better but, in time, you will forget about the original and come to love my design...OK..in a perfect world that would happen! Anyway, feel free to criticise my work...I spent 25 years as a professional artist...it comes with the turf Take care Chance Wolf

Nice job Chance! One suggestion - can you add some buzzing neon sounds? (just kidding)

Yep and don't forget the dead flies at the bottom of the sign. Or does someone already clean that up regularly?

HA! The buzzing would be a nice touch...for us detail freaks...maybe we can get Steve to close the deal.
Randy, you nailed it! It is true that the Neon Signs seem to be in the Top Ten of all time FLY KILLERS.

It's very nice Chance. However I wish the Café was designed like a black and white excel spreadsheet, with a customizable header and no graphics. At least when I'm at work.
Seriously, on my dial-up system the logo seems to load slower.

It just seems that way because everything else does too. I like the new Logo. Nice work there Chance.

I'm glad you mentioned this change. I thought I was tripping out.
Will you walk into my parlour? said the Spider to the Fly,
Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy; The way into my parlour is up a winding stair, And I've a many curious things to show when you are there. Oh no, no, said the little Fly, to ask me is in vain, For who goes up your winding stair -can ne'er come down again. |

Aw man, I was going to say I like the old one better until I heard the story of how the new one was made. Just like some magic tricks: the method is more impressive than the effect.
