Thank you, kind sir!

Also, only partially related, how does one add a suggestion to the guide, anyway? I tried editing the googledoc spreadsheet (because I have a problem /sci/? with the location of the recent addition of the brain workshop game; it's not in the games, it's under informational tools or something slightly less intuitive) but it wouldn't let me do anything, despite the fact that it says anyone with the link can edit that.

Logo-wise, it's getting a bit crowded. Of course they will work if you just want to use it as a wallpaper or something.

But right now, I'm going to bed. The last one I made is http://www.mediafire.com/?h2z9toay054odmg
if someone wants to keep at it.

The glow layers were made by duplicating the layer, applying Gaussian blur 12 on the bottom one and then duplicating that layer to increase the visibility of the glow.

The depth was done by fiddling with the layer opacities.

Remember to upload your own edited psd files.

Just add in the ellipse around it and you're good.
Let's keep it simple, neutral, non-invasive. This way it'll be more compatible with any other background it could be put against.

Have any of you ever been frustrated because you wanted to know the original scientific evidence for something; but it's become so accepted at this point that it's impossible to track down?
