As you may have noticed, there’s a site banner up there now.
\nI only received one submission back when I requested people to submit banners. <\/a>, and it just didn’t quite work for me. (Bit too dark, and I didn’t like the hint of a blurring effect on the letters.) Since no one else sent me anything, I finally broke down and threw something together myself. It’s OK, but I’m not wild about it. So I’m repeating my request:
\nSomeone with artistic talent, *please* make me a banner. The requirements:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The size should be roughly 760×90.\n
  2. Subdued colors; not glaringly bright. No hot pink. I tend to like blues and violets, but I’ll be happy with anything that doesn’t hurt my eyed.\n
  3. Easy to read text, including the name of the blog, and the subtitle that are currently there. I’d rather not have funny fonts mixed into the title.\n
  4. Something in the background that suggests the kind of math I do. Since my approach to math is much more focused on discrete math topics like structures and logic, I’d prefer to see something like graphs, category diagrams, topologies, or knots than equations.\n<\/ol>\n

    The rewards for the person whose banner I use:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. You’ll be eternally credited in the “about” link on the blog.\n
    2. You can pick a topic for me to write a blog entry or series of entries about.\n
    3. If I ever collect the blog entries into a book, you’ll get a free signed copy.\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
