Yeah....

Maybe move the FORUMS part down to the next line.... It just seems a little too long.......

I like acronyms, and I was just thinking.... What do you guys think of calling CadillacForums..... CaFo...... Its short, and easy to remember.......

CaFo reminds me of NICO. Your mind has been tainted. :D

Just keep in mind that the v-series logo is a little different than that:

It's looking pretty cool.. Is there a way we can keep the image on the right-side up there and still have a new look look good?

I think if the the butchered symbol (no offense) was cut off the end of the text and just the chrome looking text was put beside the existing image would look OK.

I don't like acronyms too much, but it comes down to what it is. CadillacForums is a bit long but sounds fine since thats the name of the site. CaFo is almost like the Ford one you see sometimes.

this is for elwesso. It's an incredibly small banner so if (1.6 kb) so you wouldn't have to worry about bandwidth. It has a clear background so where ever you put it it'll be the background color. (so don't put it on a black background :D)

Any thought on using the second design and using the logo with the ducks on the right border and the new logo on the left. Just thinking out loud. Good work by the way. Sorry to hear about your car.

That sounds good with the old and new cadillac logo.

I don't think anyone else will know what CaFo means if you have that on a sticker on your car, and it's not too catchy either. Sorry wes. :coolgleam

Hey, I'm sure a lot of people didn't know what SS stood for when it was first put on cars. althought CaFo sounded a bit weird it as grown on my a little.

yeah but SS was a HUGE thing and everybody saw it. cadillac forums aren't that big and no one knows what it is so if they see CaFo they wont know what it is and the majority wont care.
