Apparently our logo sucks, or so we are told. I have no opinion on this myself. Anyway, you are being asked to suggest a new logo, if you have artistic talent and stuff. The post is here.
By the way, I had no idea that is where the Atheist A started!
Anyway, have a look, and start working on your winged whatevers!

Be careful what you wish for, or you’ll end up with King Stork.
I don’t remember that either. Anyone got a link? (Yes, I’m lazy. I’ll let you Google that for me.)
I seem to recall someone saying that Dawkins’ assistant (who was sued for skimming money from the foundation?) had come up with it for the out campaign back when.
It’s not so bad. I’ve seen worse. I think I’ve made worse, for that matter.
FTB, like FBI
You don’t have to google it. Just CLICK ON THE DAMN LINK. PZ gives the authorativie history of “A” and even has a picture of it. Of course, all “A’s” do kinda look alike.
or the picture of the cosmic microwave background radiation, with Free Thought Blogs written round the equator, im sure thats not the right word , but im equally sure you know what i mean

you could animate the font
The current logo is fine. The blogs look fine, except for one thing: Is there any way we can get rid of the dang religious advertising? Like the “thousands will pray for you” people? And the “NOTW” Xian clothing outfit?
You think I’m going to trust PZ on something like this? What kind of fool do you take me for?
(You know, back in 1960 I was hanging out with this kid named John who was getting a band going, and I suggested that they call themselves “The Beatles” . . .)
Links or it didn’t happen. (Or something like that. And yes, my tongue is in my cheek. But still, I’d be interested in seeing the original post from “lo and these many years ago.”)
The whole story does seem a little suspicious to me.
IMO: its not the logo, bit actually the layout and design. Personally, I read on RSS because its so much better that way then trying to visit the site. Keep up the good work writing, but I hope you can clean up and simplify the site.
Here are some great sites that I think are great and very simple:
http://www.loopinsight.com/
http://www.splatf.com/
Those are nice looking sites.
hey, the craptastic religious ads are gone and now it is the Minnesota school of cosmetology.
Looks okay to me. I come here for the words/writing/ideas and haven’t spent a lot of time contemplating the banners.
On a scale of 1-10, where 1 causes brain damage and 10 triggers an orgasm, the FTB logo is a solid 6. Perhaps a 7 if I squint my eyes a bit and/or I’m in a generous mood. It isn’t hideous, it has some thematic elements that help, it effectively announces where you are, and it is likely well worth every penny you paid for the design.
