It could go up there, the logo at the moment is just an alpha channelled PNG, just needs resizing (keeping the alpha channel intact) to fit and plopped into the xenforo logo folder as "logo.png"... :)

That said, the old logo is a lot taller, so, that little floaty banner thing that appears when scrolling down the page would probably end up a lot wider... :-rofl2

Heaven forfend that the banner should get any larger. Even after all this time I have NOT warmed to its obstruction.

All I know is ..
I hate Christmas trees ...(they belong in a forest imo)
'speshully when some prat deems it a great idea to buy one with roots and plant it in their back garden after Xmas ..
Case in point is the one roughly due South of Carl ...in a garden to the North of their bungalow ..an due South of my dish..
it grows about a foot a year and accelerating..and by my reckoning will reach a height that will cause me issues when I'm 66 ..
A douglas fir in back- yard ...
Wot a knob head ...
Bah humbug.

Got an ex-christmas tree in the garden, it's at the back out of the way, but has developed two trunks so needs surgery, but I've been told not to do so, but I probably will anyway, cos I'm the only one looking after that damned garden... :-rofl2

Remember the house decorated with two Santas, one realigning a dish and the other one by the gate playing a saxophone?....Well sadly he's been decapitated by a French music critic....
No sax please, I'm Santa.jpg
