Somehow they evoke Tie-Dye to me, not that that's a bad thing, but depending on the users we're looking for, it might not quite work. 14 is a bit too motion blurry. I'd try to keep it pretty crisp. If there was a reason why the title needed to be moving, showing action, or something, the effect would come in handy.Re: Knowledge Engineering Laboratory
http://kelab.tamu.edu/standard/approach.htmlLooks interesting, I'll read it in more depth shortly. Some of the concepts, paradigms, if not tools from these kind of projects would be helpful to catalog. Time to assemble a list of URLs for projects like this.
Knowledge Engineering For Ecosystem Management
There are a good number of those links in messages in this list's archive;
I may have more I can post when I locate them in my bookmarks.
Thanks for your suggestions and images Lawrence.
Curious what you though of three of the logos, namely:

>> Seems there needs to be some sort of pc image up top that goes acrossOK, break up the plain color with a subtle image or pattern for the backdrop.the page within the green
grasses, sunset, brambles, gnarly tree, big treetrunk
I meant the fauna/flora image graphic overlayed on a subtle gray-green-blue background;
possible some composition that include some of the following:
clouds, grasses, sunset, brambles, gnarly tree, big treetrunk, silhouetted images -
something sized to fit in the space currently occupied by your image + green BG.
I have a hi-res image of the dewy spider web (2nd from the left image at bottom of page). Might make a nice subtle pattern for the backdrop, showing the web of connections we're looking for.
No I don't. I'll ask around though.I don't quite follow this. There are some technical limits to how the images in the header can combine, if we want it to be a fluid layout. Do you mean sky, cloud, etc images behind the guild image in the header?
Do you know a PC person, at one time in Berkeley, named Milo Clark?
He was on our pc list a long time ago - a major thinker and contributor.

Anyone care to comment on the schema or some other subject not related to the website or front-end?
Less vertical space used up by header would be nice. Takes quite a chunk as it is. A more horizontal image and one- or two-line header text (instead of three) would facilitate that.Yup, I'll play with some options. Far from any completed design.
Agree text portion of logo needs work.
If y'all really want a more vertical image in the header (trees are nice, just tend to be so darn vertical ;-) it could go atop the eventual right-side nav bar, dropping lower than the content header image/text.Good suggestions.
That would eat vertical from only the nav links, and not from the content area.
You will have to lose that serif font though... ;-)Not a problem.
Search text entry field extends past right edge of colored box background.Whoops, different default widths in different browsers, with a hard div-width...thanks for letting me know.
Color of that search form background doesn't float my boat.Yeah, its a bit of a baby blue color. How about shift the hue over to green? orange?
Thanks for the comments. I'll work on it this week.
Should I take up this role and let Chad get back to schemas and code?
Cheers,
Bear
