Thanks...
That entry had been sitting in my head just about since the creation of the forum.
The theory behind it goes something like: the mouse showed it was computer related ie online forum, the
lights on top indicate the emergency services,
NZ is well...NZ (d'uh!), the
orange border is keeping with the current colour scheme, and 'service neutral'.
I know the lights on the mouse are Police lights, but we all have
red lights on our vehicles, but if both lights were red, I thought it might appear to 'exclude' the
Police, and reduce the service neutral effect.
The shield one has some logic behind it too, but as Skytower said, it looks a bit 'American'. The shield obviously indicated the emergency services and the protective role we have, and again the colours keep with the current scheme. Though my fiance thought that there was a strong hint of the "Edmonds Sure to Rise" cookbook in there! Anyway, that 'psychedelic' background could be changed easily enough, perhaps to the one in the first entry?
So there you have it...method to the madness!
