Changed Logo?
Posted by MAbruce on Monday, November 24, 2003 12:41 PM
Is it my imagination, or does the "Model Railroader" logo look a little different these days?

From the time I purchased my first MR in January, 1965, through December, 2003, the masthead has been fundamentally the same - a lovely shade of cyan that I could pick out on a newstand at 50 paces . . . This new blue is just not going to be as disctinctive . . .

I noticed that right away, and it also fills all of the magazine's width.

Yeah, they may of installed an antivirus in the java script and if the logo appears darker blue than it use to that means your computer has a positronic memory error and you need to download the upload patch and install a bottle of Romulan Ale in your gullet. You may also have a catapillar in your neighborhood pushing lots of alluvial. FRED

It did change. I noticed it after I wrote a message and returned to the main page. This happened a few days ago.

Hey FThunder, I know you're only 15, but may I suggest you stop and think about making such inane remarks before posting? You're not going to make too many friends here by inferring that we’re all stupid.

And as you already mentioned, not everyone here subscribes to MR and wouldn't know what page 143 says.
