Nice picture to fix..

Hi,

First of all:
I hope this topic will be removed after the fix will be applied..

So, the trouble:
This picture The top of the site logo has two mirrored pistols.
I never saw these pistols in real life, but I can say for sure - the second one (to the right) is wrong one. And it is not about strange "S". It is about the gun's barrel.
There is no mirror, so it should be fixed.

I'm not much of a designer, so I can't do this job. But I think there is a lot of pardners who can.
"to be fixed" :)

I like the logo, just want it to be more realistic. The logo is first thing that newcomers to see :)

I always thought it was a subtle historical reference to the famous reversed image of Billy The Kid which led people to think he was left-handed. :lol:

Now that you've mentioned it why don't we just stick with that and save some trouble :lol: :lol:

DeUgli,

Humm.. But people thought that it was Billy who was left-handed and not his special designed left-handed pistol he could have. And what is for this special left-handed gun? It is not some guitar.
And not everyone knows Billy, but almost anyone can say that the picture has defect (from those "anyones" who pay attention to picture at all).

But if it is the purpose of the second gun - than no problem, I just didn't know that :)
May be then the second gun should have the "B" letter instead of "S" or something similar to it. To make it easier to understand.. Or at least to emphasize that mirroring is made for special purpose.

I noticed it times ago, mainly because of the smaller unloading barrel of the gun (Colt has it in the right side of main barrel :wink: )

But

Why we don't save some trouble and leave it as it is? :)

Because it is logo? And not some picture or screenshot.
If your nick or avatar will have some defects I'm sure you'll try to fix them as soon as possible.

I own a site about CoJ BiB community and there are about 62 peoples now. I asked a lot of them to take a look at the SG. And you know what? Some of them noticed the defect too. "Looks like cheap photoshop" - the translated quote :(

So, why don't we save our logo instead of trouble, time or whatever we already have saved?

There is upcoming 1.1 SG and that would be nice present from our SG community designers, huh?

Have a good day!
