Maybe it's me, but does the "Invasion Sicily" banner look like a GAP commercial?

Albeit, a very stylish and well made GAP commercial... :D

Ya know what Sand... Since a few days ago that's *exactly* what I see everytime I look at it now. I had no idea when I was making it though... It's starting to really bug the toejam out of me. Like some freakin' Khaki's ad or something. Arghh....

Nah, see it's just telling you that you're not "cool enough" to be in this scenerio.   There is a minimum denim requirement for this one.  I guess he left that part out, sorry.  ;)

Nash, you rock.

You know, I'm not sure if I'm hip enough for this one either.  :(

Well hell folks, from my POV, this community has some damn talented people willing to contribute their time and skills for our dweebish pleasures.  :p

That graphic is tight, crisp, and the colors balance very well. You aren't overpowered by any part of it, but the contrast between sepia, black-and-white, and color cells move your eyes along the graphic in just the desired pattern. The theme is cohesive with no distractions. In other words, it is a very well-done graphic.

Nash, very nice job.:D

what the hell is sepia?  Is that some color that only women are supposed to know about?  ;)

No... it's a photographer thing...

Conversion of a black-and-white image in silver to sepia (a brownish gray to dark olive brown) by metallic compounds. Sepia was the most common tone used, and was used in black-and-white prints of films for special sequences to enhance the dramatic or pictorial effect.
