    What about a red one? :)

    I basically like what you've chosen, too. To me it's a little too "glossy" when I'd hope for "feathery", but for what it is it's fitting. :)

    There's also something else about it that I really like, and it's only a personal choice thing: the actual NAVBAR links being ABOVE the breadcrumb and welcome bar! :)

    That's where I think it should be. :D

    Hey guys, I have a small update and would like any feedback:

    I found some parrot illustrations and greenery, and threw 'em onto the logo. I personally think it may be overdone just a bit, but the members seem to love it so far. You can see it in action here: TalkParrots.com Home - Parrot Information, Articles, Discussion and Photos. Here is the simplified alternative: http://www.talkparrots.com/images/kleo/talkparrots-logo-LESSbirds.png

    What are your thoughts? Cute? Over-done? Mis-matched?

    Thanks!

    It's characteristic and colorful. I like it. ;)

    I like it very much.

    And, it is educational, because I did not know there are red parrots.

    :D

    Not sure if this was mentioned before, but how about some parrots thrown in for fun?

    I like it! Though I probably would have gone with the Forumheaven theme myself, I think this really works. The colors of the cartoon parrots look good against the colors of the theme.

    The only thing is, it almost looks like you forgot to erase a tiny white spot between the red parrot's wing and foot:
    .

    (I could be mistaken...)

    Bumping this to say the skin looks good, and the parrots are perfect! Did you just start this site?
