Re: Interpreter 2.0?

I am also reminded of the icon used by the NZ Medicinal Cannabis Council. I am not making this up. ETA: the Proprietor has weighed in on the logo: If you examine the new logo design, you might perhaps see something like the rays of the sun. You might also see an open book. And you might even recogni...

Re: Interpreter 2.0?

I am thinking it’s something more like this: https://www.extreminal.com/wp-content/uploads/imperial-Triumphant-Band-Pic.jpg I’d love to see the Interpreter Foundation book Imperial Triumphant to entertain volunteers, donors, and friends at the Foundation’s annual brisket and pork banquet in north O...

Re: Interpreter 2.0?

INTERPRETER SMOKES WEED I am inclined to think it looks a bit like a side-view of a Slinky in motion. You know: when you set the spiral-shaped toy in motion, it sort of flops over and briefly forms a rainbow-like shape that's not unlike the new logo. Actually, "Slinky in motion" rather sounds like ...

Re: Interpreter 2.0?

I am pleased to report that the journal home page now sports the new logo. https://interpreterfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/journal-header.png I don't know about you, but the new logo and the dark stained wood on the sides of the home page don't mix well. Please note that the Foundation ...

The 90’s called, and they want it all back.
I'll mark that as a negative comment.

Please notice that the Foundation has now confirmed the news: https://interpreterfoundation.org/a-new ... oundation/

If I am not mistaken, there is no explanation of the meaning of the symbol.

Re: Interpreter 2.0?

I appreciate the candid feedback, drumdude and PG. If there is no objection, I will anonymize all the feedback and share it with the Proprietor. You make a good point about the difficulty of seeing the author’s name, drumdude. PG, I had the same concern about the book’s spine (assuming we’re looking...

Interpreter 2.0?

For close to 12 years, Interpreter: A Journal of Latter-day Saint Faith and Scholarship has had a rather staid and bland look, something akin to an artistic representation of the gym floor and high council table in a Latter-day Saint stake center building that was drawn out on an Olive Garden napkin...

Re: Gemli explains...

I noticed that the Proprietor is now attributing the comments of others (Charles Dike, in this instance) to Gemli. I believe it’s time for the Proprietor to take a break. DanielPeterson—>Charles Dike a day ago gemli:. "Gemli has posted over 13,000 comments in 10 1/2 years. As best I can tell, you ha...

Re: LDS Inc buys Kirtland Temple from Mormon rivals for $192 million

I found this interview of David Howlett, who has published a biography of the Kirtland temple, worth reading: https://www.dialoguejournal.com/articles/the-kirtland-temple-as-a-shared-space-a-conversation-with-david-j-howlett/. Among other things, Howlett talks about Karl Anderson’s efforts to lift t...
