Another suggestion

Maybe one for the graphic designers, what about something completely different. My thoughts are that the icon should be something like a 'card index box' or similar, with the 'WikiIndex' logo on the front of the box — being as this site is an index of wikis. The current 'keys' suggest that we can somehow 'unlock' other wiki sites - which could be misleading. The old-skool Windows 3.1 card-box icon would be something like what I am thinking of.

Although not a professional, I did study graphic design :-) Ray King hired a graphic designer who created what is the 'challenger.' These are the ideas we had 5 years ago WikiIndex:LogoOptions. WikiIndex was conceived to be more like a train switching station and was called SwitchWiki for the first several years of its life. RayKing and JohnStanton thought that WikiIndex was clearer. For me the lost of verb action is something I miss here. We are indeed an index of wiki. I think we can be more. :-) Keys denote unlocking self-organized knowledge - the best kind of knowledge! </nowiki></long winded typing!></nowiki>. Certainly the conversation is open! Best, MarkDilley
