Thanks, I'm glad you like it. The B-Hebrew logo uses a text from the
opening of Deuteronomy - Lewis Reich recognized it straight off! I used the
Hebrew fonts from the Summer Institute of Linguistics (http://www.sil.org).
I wanted the colors to be compatible with the B-Greek logo, which uses a
region taken directly from an image of P75, so I cheated. I sampled some
regions from the same papyrus, and diddled with it to make it look like a
scroll.
