I-I-I...I don’t know what to say. That’s simply unheard of! Never in my lifetime....

I do belive the World Below is now covered in ice and snow.

You must have misheard them. I’m sure they said ‘bigger.’

They must have gotten the word ‘logo’ mixed up with the word ‘timeline’

I had that happen once too. I was so shocked I felt like running from the room screaming “Humans are soylent green!”

Funny thing was, I talked them out of it.

I simply wanted to say that I believe this to be the best designed blog on the internet.

Was it getting in the way of the starbursts or something?

Bing says:

Was the logo itself a starburst?

Another Kevin says:

I had a different experience a few months back doing some agency work for a client (big company no profile). After looking at the home page design that the client approved a month earlier, I decided the company logo was too small and made it bigger. When I informed the client they accepted the change.

I’m sure you immediately replied, “Of course, but you’ll have to pay me a lot less...”
