The top characters are what you get when you cram ILX into Webdings. Strangely, it makes sense to me.

Sean C: What the hell is the first character supposed to be? Oh wait, it's an umbrella in the sand at the seaside, right? I thought it was a stealth bomber shooting lasers at a capital city, marked with a star. What does this say about my psychology? Sheesh.

Why not set this up as a cookie option from the Settings page? "Show logo yes/no". Set it automatically to "no", and have people opt in? Would that even be workable?

I think it started here, on a Japanese page dedicated to a rabbit called Oolong, who has since gone to bunnyheaven.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Friday, 21 February 2003 21:09 (twenty-one years ago) link

What Spencer and Tracer sed, and what I suggested many moons ago: make it an option under settings that you have to turn on before you start seeing them.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Friday, 21 February 2003 21:21 (twenty-one years ago) link

Tracer's point is very good. But I like the logos. Although if people start making fake pop-up ads...

― Chris P (Chris P), Friday, 21 February 2003 23:16 (twenty-one years ago) link

Sorry Sean, Spencer, Tracer, I have better things to do than build a whole infrastructure around a logo that only few people would be able to see (and then keep it up to date etc). Sleep, for instance. So we're back to text.

― Graham (graham), Friday, 21 February 2003 23:31 (twenty-one years ago) link

turn out it was Alba (the font, not the person) rather than VAG Rounded. but it was too late by then as i'd already used a simplified version (i made the x square) of VAG for this:

ihttp://www.koogy.clara.co.uk/ilx/ilx.png

which is 3d spinning ilx logo with opengl video feedback effect. looks better actually moving: http://www.koogy.clara.co.uk/ilx/test1.avi and more interesting still with a bit of colour cycling thrown in http://www.koogy.clara.co.uk/ilx/test4.avi (both are 10sec 1M mpeg4)
