I've sent Rob my proposal This is a quick look at the alteration. http://imagebin.org/257532
- Adjusted the dot in the character i so it wouldn't collide into the f's when scaled down. - Spacing of f's kept the same, even though I wanted to join them they just didn't look right after wards. - TM less prominent. - Apache less prominent with a grey font colour, as per comments, people who liked it as a 4 said the apache stuck out too much, I'm hoping this would have won their 5 had I done it before.
