Jamit has asked me to make those buttons on the right LEGO themed. I had no clue how to LEGOise Zune and iTunes. But RSS, it came so clear like a transparent LEGO Brick. So I went to Flash, Made a square 50×50 px and turned it into a Minifig head. So here you go for your own enjoyment!

A discussion between the cast/crew of the show (Jamit, reepblue, and Matto) brought up the need for us to have a logo for iTunes, among other things. We basically gave Steven a couple design guidelines (basically we needed to incorporate a LEGO brick, and that it should be mostly blue) and let his imagination do the rest. The colour scheme he chose was based on that of an old forum that Steven had done graphics for, and the page design for the blog. He got a great design for the logo down pretty quickly, and it was just a matter of a little discussion before we had tweaked the font design and text into compleation.

So without further ado, here is both our iTunes banner, and a smaller avatar/button.

My only regret is that they don’t have catchy names like “Larry”

~Matt Smith

Now, can I have your attention for one bit? I would like to introduce Larry, the “Listen” button.

For now on, this nice smooth button will take you to the radio file. Just click it and your listening to the radio show! I would also like to say that Larry had a brother named Dexter, but he can not be posted until further notice.

Well we should have had the older episodes up here by now, but PodOmatic seems to have deleted them from their site. Just goes to prove how crappy that site was. But no matter, I have already lined up two interviews with MOC builders and those will start coming in before the end of the week. So keep your eye on this spot.

That is right, after dying a second time we are now bringing it back with a new site, new e-mail, and a new plan. All in all it is going to be a new podcast. Start looking for the old episodes to be posted here and then we will start turning out new content. If all goes well the first new pieces of content will hit this blog in less then a week.
