Ok, here's the deal. Tonight I came home and had the image for the new website layout in my head but I was missing the icon/image to replace the old combo images in the upper left corner. I knew I wanted to get rid of the top frame and banner page that was in it but I didn't want people to miss the site's name always being visible. Since my sister is far more artistically inclined than I am and more familiar with image manipulation I asked her to create my new logo. After about 2.5 hours of fiddling with it and my constant annoying feedback, she had created the logo you see before you now. At first I felt there was something not quite right but I couldn't put my finger on it. Now that it is in the right context though, I think her judgement was quite sound. It does look pretty "schway", awesome, bongo, rad, etc etc etc.

These images are from various sources plutonor pluto 1994-17-a-full_tif pluto_c charon Before you start thinking these pics are seriously poor in comparison to the Solar pics, keep in mind that the moon, Charon, is smaller than the eastern half of the US and is nearly 40 times farther away than the sun, which is hundreds of times larger than earth. One site likens trying to see Pluto to trying to see a baseball 40 miles away. And Charon is roughly half Pluto's size so it's more like a golf ball from 40 miles away.
