Not disagreeing... but the logo contest in question is (i believe) strictly for the beta of the product. The CF8 beta (scorpio) logo made its way onto some t-shirts that you can pick up at your local CFUG... but beyond that it's not recognized as an official logo. In fact, during that particular contest, it was stated that no Adobe logo could be used in conjunction with the CF8 logo (adding to the fact that it was unofficial). As far as CF's official logo... sure, it's changed a bit. But it's also changed companies a bit :) The newest logo, as you're aware, wasn't changed on a whim, but changed to fit in with the rest of Adobe's product line. And if it hadn't changed to fit in, there'd be an uproar about how Adobe doesn't love CF :) -- I have failed as much as I have succeeded. But I love my life. I love my wife. And I wish you my kind of success. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:273121 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
