(...) Hi Tim, but formatting UL would apply on all LI elements, I just would like to format the LI elements with a specific class.

Hi all, please see former discussion here: (URL) Thanks to all who were contributing ideas and suggestions.

(...) From memory you have to put the list spacing on the UL rather than the LI elements. I know you can control just about everything but it has to be done in the right spot. Tim (19 years ago, 21-Dec-06, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, FTX)

Hi David, thank you very much for your comments and ideas! (...) I've made the date smaller in draft #6, IMO it should be enough, but I could be wrong. (...) At the moment, this list is -um...- a "list" (actually HTML element "UL"/"LI"). I tried to (...) (19 years ago, 21-Dec-06, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, FTX)

Hi Brendan, thank you very much for taking the time to make this image. It's really a lot of fun creating the new frontpage with all the help from various people. (...)

(...) Hi Todd, nice to read you! I've tried, but it looks wacky. IMO the contrast is needed to show that the logo is actually "in the spotlight" and not cased by a cone. Nevertheless, I'm still not too happy with the current logo set. -René (URL) (19 years ago, 20-Dec-06, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, FTX)

(...) I am little surprised about that, Todd. Actually, I am worrying about the dilution of the LUGNET logo by using it freely within other graphics. It is clever, but I fear too clever by half. Bad branding. .02, JOHN (19 years ago, 17-Dec-06, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, FTX)

(...) Looks great without the box! BTW, the "shadows" in the logo should be darker versions of the brick colors (e.g., dark blue, dark red, dark yellow) instead of black. But in terms of a mock-up, that's just a minor point. (...) Another minor (...) (19 years ago, 17-Dec-06, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, FTX)
