Generally I like when a logo seems to really fit the personality of the site it represents. While a mixtape can be thought of as having some tie in to the nature of this site it doesn't really capture it for me.
Unfortunately I can't think right offhand what might do better by me but something signifying fun on the cheap or free would seem best.
Not that my site has any sort of creative or relevant header...
these are just some experiments to get the juices flowing. it's nice to have input as to what people could see for it! thanks, james!
ohhhh.....fun. i like the mixtape idea. what about something a little more 21st century like a mixed cd or playlist? just some more ideas to consider. i love everything about the site so i'll be easy to pacify :)
you rock, rad! thanks! keep your suggestions coming!!
I'm sympathetic to you plight! I saw your post I thought I would make quick mock up of something.
