ok.. that is the epitome of what completly pisses me off, i had already made my EM logo before i even saw yours.. i basically copied MY OWN LOGO and made it bigger. by yours are bigger i meant out of proportion. i am no newbie to the web graphics buisness, i have been webmaster for many VERY good clans, a most of which spent a few weeks during their primes as "best in the world" (in quotes cause everyone is pretty much the same, its like pro golf). and of course i used the same rage 3d symbol, THERE IS ONLY ONE, and by copying the style of the forums i meant how it looks to me, i dont see all these blues, when i look at teh logo, it is red, so i assume that everything follows that color scheme. my brain doesnt click in that all these dull colors are not reds, and my eyes are drawn to the red so it stands out. (also if youve ever seen any of my clan pages, they tend to have lots of red in them, i like the color).
on to that logo deal, by "SYSTEM RESOURCES" they could mean processor power, memory, or GPU power. well my knowledge of computers leads me to believe that they mean memory, as it isnt being processed(it is but you couldnt tell the difference if it wasnt its so insignifigant) however larger images take up larger hunks of RAM, since ram isnt used hardly at all when folding, nearly 100% CPU, you have nothing to worry about, i think you understand this as you did say something to that effect at the end.
and once again NEVER TELL ME MY STUFF IS UNORIGINAL, you said yourself you copied [H]ard|OCP's image attributes, and mentioned some other team logo, i had not even looked at yours when i made my first rendering, after looking at yours i felt that i could do better in a reasonably short legnth of time, i believe i did, im not sore that mine arent being used, i already said that. i spent about 20 mins on mine, it looks like you did too. this argument isnt about my logos or yours, its about some immature newbie graphics artist coming in and accusing someone who is 100% original about coping them, personnaly i look at the two and they look nothing alike to me.... completely different layout. considering the small sizes of the canvases we are playing with is it not natural that they would look somewhat alike? i think so.
the new look of the stats page is definatly better than that ugly white green mess it was before, but i think i could do better. i dont want to get competitive though, and since it looks like my logos werent taking to by the masses im not going to complain, it only takes away from the good feeling that comes from Folding.
now i did read your last message, and if it was intended as an apology, it is accepted and i hope we can walk away from this with no hard feelings. but please, read what you are typing before you run out and accuse me of being a little kid. thank you.
