(...) Hi René, those are the best icons up to now. I like this approach very much. It shows that we are on LUGNet here. Leg Godt! Marco (19 years ago, 16-Dec-06, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, FTX)

If not a brick, I would spin the spotlight around so that the entire LUGNET logo was in the spotlight. (...) (19 years ago, 16-Dec-06, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, FTX)
