    I think the new logo is lovely and after you questioning if it is Paladin's garden, roders, I am wondering that too. It really does remind me of photos taken when his daughter got married this past summer.

    However, two things bother me, and I hope I am not stepping on anyones toes by asking. The one being this white background - surely it will not stay like this, will it - or will it? eek! It looks unfinished, sort of like it is stuck on a blank sheet of paper. Or do I have to change something in my profile to see it differently? :scratch:

    Also, the boxes are of different sizes and not centered either.

    I really hope I have not offended anyone, but I've looked several times........ and it looks like this every time. :flag:

    Sorry if I have k-l

    A good change is as good as a rest.

    Wish that garden was mine though!

    No, the Google ads are there right below the logo. What I mean is that when you started this thread off, the reply box is one width. Then Dee's reply box is not as wide, as is mine and all the others aftewards.

    The Quick Reply box here off-centered to the rest, it is off to the left. Don't you see it like that too? The rest is all centered.

    Gosh, I don't do this very often, but I must agree with Sis here :hehe: xx

    ... my screen is all over the show ... and not pretty looking I might add ... I like visual aesthetics .... I'm a bit girly that way. :yho:

    For some strange reason, I don't even have Google ads ... just lots of white space everywhere .... :scratch:

    I must speak to my superiors .... :halp:

    Aren't we meant to pretend there actually aren't any ads? and not discuss them? due to the terms of the Google adwords contract (Rule number 11)

    Hi guys ... I have something to say about ....

    Google ads ..... it is not permissible to do anything which draws the direct attention to the presence of Google ads. This is part of the Terms and Conditions that Google imposes on its Publishers, ie, Gardeners Corner, et al ...

    This is why we do not get ourselves invovled in any discussions about the presence of Google ads.

    I, and certainly the rest of the staff, hope this clarifies our position in NOT speaking about this.

    The page looks fine to me - just the same as always. Someone like to pm me a screen shot so I can see what the problem is?


    And btw - it IS Paladin's garden. It was one of the photographs he posted recently. Nice, isn't it?

    Also, if Google finds such discussions have taken place (don't ask me how they find out but it seems they can!) Nathan can have his licence revoked and the earnings help to pay for this forum.
