krazyness suggested that it would be a good idea to implement a site logo, to replace the current header of the TI|BD wiki. He took the liberty to design and produce the logo. There was much discussions relating to the design of site logo (which can be found here) which led to modifications and new versions, each an improvement from the last. The people who have actually produced the possible logos for the wiki are krazyness and James Kanjo.
Original Header:
This was the original header which krazyness set out to replace
Version 1:
krazyness produced the original logo design for the site (which he designed himself)
Version 2:
krazyness manipulated the first version to render the letters "A" in "Basic" and "V" in "Developer" in a higher quality
Version 3:
krazyness rendered the image based on the colours of the wiki, #172028 and #E7E9DC
Version 4:
James Kanjo continues krazyness's work by using his 'very sophisticated photo editing software' to improve the image quality of the logo. He also shrunk the height to 63 pixels, because he misread the discussion on the logo, and thought it said to be 63 pixels high instead of 67 pixels high
Version 5:
James Kanjo made a similar variation which has the gradient in the text dark at the bottom and light at the top
Version 6:
James Kanjo made another variation which has the gradient similar to that of version 4, but with different colours which are relative to the site
Version 7:
James Kanjo changed the lighting and shadows of version 5, and changed the height of the image to 68 pixels, as that was thought to be the necessary height of the image to fit properly. He also added a gradient on the background which fades to the colour #172028 over a length of 32 pixels
Version 8:
James Kanjo changed the height of version 6 to 68 pixels for the same reason mentioned in version 7, and adjusted the lighting. He also added a gradient on the background which fades to the colour #172028 over a length of 32 pixels
Version 9:
James Kanjo modified the gradient of the text of version 8 to start of light in the middle and dark on the outsides
Version 10:
Version 10A:
James Kanjo realised that the height of the logo should in fact be 67 pixels in height. He then made the text look more 'polished' by making it brighter in the middle of the text and also shrunk the main header text and added the subtitle "The TI-Basic Information Repository". He also changed the gradient to fade to the colour #172028 over a length of 200 pixels rather than 32
Version 10B:
James Kanjo increased the height in pixels to be 69 pixels high, because the browser Internet Explorer showed a pixel row that should have been hidden, and so that there is no black pixel row at the bottom of the logo on forum pages. The difference is negligable to the human eye, but it is definitely noticeable when put to use as the header.
Version 10C:
DarkerLine's first try at making a 68k version of the logo.
