Any chance you could put the pictures up without the FG logo in the corners.

I love the site but the logo, to me, kind of messes up the serenity of the picture, but then again maybe I am the only one that thinks this way?

Thank you. - Issue reason: Thank you very much for helping with the recent donation drive.  Brass Balls Award: For having sack.. - Issue reason: For having the SACK to photochop two of the most respected names in the hobby into precarious photographs. See http://www.flyinggiants.com/forums/showthread.php?p=90555  Platinum Diamond Studed Steaming Fabergé Turd: The SleepyC award. Enough said. - Issue reason: Because you, Sleepy, are a triple Platinum Daimond Studed Steaming Faberge Turd! In a good way of course! LOL! 300+ post thread, and took it like a man!

YES!!!

jk.


But I think the point of having a Flying Giants scren saver is to actually have the Flyinggiants represented on it.

John, these are FlyingGiants backgrounds, ergo the insertion of the logo.
