# 2.0 is much better
Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.

Some people suggested differntiating between the "Programmer" and "Designer". So how's this:

I'll have to think about the boy/girl part. Female programmers and male designers might become offended. Then again, offending people is underrated.
I love the idea of differentiating though. Definitely keep trying for some variance, even if you keep what you have now.

Just a little note: On the listings box, I found the "Ads by Google" text links above "Filter by price" confusing. I thought it was a way to sort or view by category at first glance, and clicked a link without realizing it was an ad.
Man, this site looks slick. You're doing a great job.

Thanks for the feedback. Glad you like =)
Yes, I've been meaning to move those ads. Will do it tomorrow for sure =).
I'll play with the people's colors to make it less gender oriented. I'll post it here when it's done.

What happened to the other one we voted on? I liked that one so much better than this one. Oh well, it is still a good job. Way to go.
PS This is the one I am talking about...

Yea, you guys liked it. But other people (especially the designers) though it looks like a boy and girl and that offended them I guess. Sorry.

What about replacing the two 'people' with two white hands shaking?

Or colouring them blue & yellow?
The logo does look sharp, but IMO, its a bit too complex for a logo. Requires to much thought to understand what's going on & what it means.

I think I like Pickle's idea. I'd like to see it implemented, anyway, so I could decide for sure. Pickle is right; the latest design is a cool idea, but it is just too busy.
