I’ve been messing around a bit lately, using this handy-dandy “official seal” generator. Since this site lacks a logo, and I have very minimal artistic and photoshopping skills, I figured this was as good a way to go as any.
Here’s my first attempt:
I liked the old-time socialist look of it, but the masculine figure and the color scheme didn’t quite jibe with my own gender, or the overall look and tone of this site. So I picked a custom orange scheme instead, went with a Keltic knotwork border, and traded the worker for a sassy witch (who looks a bit like me, figure-wise!) and swapped the dead-serious motto for something more fun:
I’m not sure whether I’ll go with this one yet, or just mess around some more.
Thoughts?
the witch one is cute, it kind of reminds me of the witch hunts the neo-cons are doing with progressives. you could open up paint and remove the url at the bottom though. :]
Great one, Bina.
But one Q: How were you able to import the witch emblem into your seal?? I didn’t see that image on the selection of emblems, and I thought that you couldn’t import other images there.
I’ll probably create a seal of my own for the SmackChron blog soon.

The orange one fits you to a “t”, in my opinion. It’s a very nice design, too.
P.S. My mother says its “sassy!” just like your personality. And that is a good thing. ^.^
Hiya, Bina!
Noticed you weren’t at the other place anymore and after I read about why, I said “fuck ’em”.
On one hand, I’d say the top one because not just for the picture itself but because I prefer the color blue.
On the other hand, being a guy and all…
Hey, y’all…
Erik, good to see you again. If you’re wondering where else I’m posting now, pop in over here and say hi:

Lots of nice progressive folks there. And trolls don’t get as long a leash as at Lord Nelson’s board.
And I think I will go with the witch, albeit a size down (to fit the sidebar better) and with the URL on it whited out. Photoshop Elements, here I come…
