iDon't

iThink it carries no meaning whatsoever

Do you think it has a hidden political message or something, it doesn't suggest anything other then perhaps iRaq's army is sponsored by apple

thats not to say its not a creative sig, i like it, but i dont think it carries much MEANING

but thats different for everyone

there isnt much of a meaning

and in some respects, its racist

and it is transparent, but internet explorer doesnt display the 'transparent' part, in IE that part will just be white.

yeah i wouldn't say its racist, but its been done (the SNL sketch) there are more things going on in the world other than Iraq that need to be brought to peoples attention that don't get the same press coverage.

in some respects it is racist, by saying that the middle eastern is full of terrotists etc

but enough of that

what file did you save it as?

save it as either png or gif to make it transparent

but png is better qualitiy, but its more in size

also was it transparent in photoshop?

he meant its racist in the sense that it represents that all of iraq and its people are like that

the reason why it doesn't give a meaning to whats going on in the world is it just shows people with weapons, that doesn't represent the war in Iraq positively or negatively. The sig above shows poverty negatively through use of keywords. you've just shown apple style advertising silhouettes that were actually made by someone else i might ad and put them in a surfboard shape, soesn't give an opinion at all

again i wouldn't say racist, it might be stereotypical, but not racist. and clever tho it may be, it kinda trivializes a very hot button topic among a large grope of people
