Just reshooting here. I think I need to get a new camera. Of course I'm getting old, that's a good excuse for out of focus crap shots.

Damn it's hard to get a good crop for the header. I'm going to have to start taking panorama photos just to get enough side coverage.

No matter what I do, I can't get a good crop of this:

The one with the blue background is very nice in my opinion @seebart

I like it too, but can you tweak it juuuuust a bit counterclockwise?
And the Microswitch one is really nice!

I like 1 and 3. I prefer the existing blue one. The new one is too bright.

Yeah thanks guys, I not too happy with any of those yet. The first one is OK I guess.

I like the first one and the texture background is nice, but it looks like the focus went on the background, putting the keycaps slightly off focus. (or maybe I need new eyeballs)

Why the hell does my header look "chunky"? I think Gimp scaling on Retina is screwing up again.

Doesent look "chunky" to me?! You're right about the focus on those caps. Anyway here's my big Micro Switch for another try. I'll keep working on both of those.

I like that, but the lighting is a bit off. The white keycaps look a bit grey there.

Edit: Oh, you seebarted and now you have a brighter one.

That's visual seebarting. ;) As you know cropping for the DT logo is a bitch. Another try on the small one. Got the focus this time.

I love the way the cable works in this one. Classic.

It'll probably be seebarted a few dozen more times.

Hehe... I love it. I was seriously going to create a header picture with the mouse cord going across the screen with the mouse on the right but it's a KEYBOARD forum so I didn't :) Okay, so maybe I did...

Sure why not. I like the idea!

Actually, the tagline before we opened the club was "input devices extraordinaire". I'll consider nice mouse pictures too. But don't push it with smartphones…

Even though I'm violently anti-Microsoft (anti-Apple and anti-Linux too), I like it. Also, it's from 1983, back before Windows existed, when Microsoft hadn't yet reached the pinnacle of evil.

It can't be the current incarnation of Amiga OS, that'd be too predictable. (And does it even have a workable browser these days?)

I don't like BSD, MINIX, Plan9 (from outer space), ReactOS, CP/M, IRIX, NeXTstep or Solaris. I hate them all.

Don't tell me you have an Amiga 3000UX? I've been hunting one down for a while. That would make your favourite Unix to be Amiga Unix (based on AT&T System V Release 4).
