Actually, I like both of them!

However I still think my favourite is the animated Möbius strip...

Amazing work, Emergence! :clap: :clap: :clap: And yeah, you should be doing this full time! :smile:

Staff is already picking the finalists, voting coming soon.
I'll leave it open for a few more hours, in case there's some late entries coming along...

I can't wait to see what we have to choose from - I think we have some very strong contenders. I know what my favourite it though. ;)

Excuse me? You downloaded the forum?
If I understand you correctly you could do it like this:

Code: Select all
<div class=”logo-image”><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4096/4749632449_65b393ce7d_b.jpg" width="[width of image]" height="[height of image]" alt="Logo" /></div>


Replace width and height with the actual pixel values of the image.

I really do not understand this question, but do you wish to place an image on a web page using HTML? To do that, use the following code (you can change the image source to point to any image URL):
Code: Select all
<img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4096/4749632449_65b393ce7d_b.jpg" alt="Rational Skepticism" width="666px" height="143px" />

Looking at what you've written, you should note that the 'class' attribute is used to style a parent element, so your code would actually be:
Code: Select all
<div class="logo-image"> ... div content goes here ... </div>

Not that for this you need to use CSS to define contents of the class, for example:
Code: Select all
<style type="text/css">
div.logo-image { width: 666px; height: 143px; border: 0px; }
</style>

Alternatively, you can implement the above code directly into the div element, as so:
Code: Select all
<div style="width: 666px; height: 143px; border: 0px;"> ... div content goes here ... </div>

Does this answer your question?

That's a link to an image on my Flickr account. If you want to embed it in a html document (web page) like a blog or something, copy and paste the code below...

Code: Select all
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/23818757@N03/4749632449/" title="THWOTH_ratskep_logo_08a by THWOTH, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4096/4749632449_65b393ce7d_b.jpg" width="666" height="143" alt="THWOTH_ratskep_logo_08a" /></a>


...this will give you an image as big as you see above, 666px wide by 143px high.

...If you want to save it to your own machine's hard drive then just right click the image posted above (Mac: Cntl+click) and chose 'Save As...', 'Save Image...', or 'Save Image As...' from the context menu (depending on your browser).

Thanks for all the pointers, everyone!1!! :cheers:

I'll test as many as I'm able...

Will there be a vote any time soon or could each entry be 'pointed at' by Bernhard for a test-card period? :ask:

What? No.

The bit-stream that ends up at my end of the tubez has a pointer in it that points to the current logo-image object.
