    How come on all the banners/logos i see of INGO the .com is on the top of INGunOwners? I've always thought it would look better on the bottom somewhere. Could confuse someone that dont know us the the website is ING.com, since its after the G. Just an opionion.:ingo:

    I didn't design it, but I'm assuming because the bottom of the 'GunOwners' text is flat, and the '.com' would stick out awkwardly. So instead, it was put at the top, nestled down between the upper-case G and O.

    Yes. And every web address I've seen has the .com at the end, not in the middle.

    The '.com' isn't in the middle. You wouldn't read the logo as "ING.comunOwners".

    The idea was to have a logo that could be printed on shirts that looked like the name of an organization, while showing that the name was also a web address, in a subdued kind of fashion.

    I've seen other websites put the '.com' at the end, but vertically, and that looked pretty neat.

    "ING.comunOwners"

    ING.Communist :dunno:

    I'm not sure what message we are trying to send here.

    I think that would look very slick!

    My point was that no one would make a mistake an put the .com in the middle because it never goes in the middle. I don't think anyone would be confused by the logo the way it is. I like it.

    With your clarification, I re-read your first post. NOW I got it. :thumbsup:

    And I agree.
