Title: 6th Anniversary at Geekhack
Post by: jdcarpe on Sun, 11 March 2018, 11:22:29: So, it all started for me on this day 6 years ago.

It's been a wild ride since then. I've met some really cool people here, and made some good friends, too. I came for the keyboards, but stayed for the community.

Remember that time we all tunred our avatars into sharks for Halverson?

I remember the shark takeover, lots of familiar avatars got munched that week :))

Shark takeover was quite funny, I didn't get it as I joined when it was happening :confused:

Nice. Can this kind of logo be made in a "badge" or something around here?

EDIT: Like the "stars" and such

EDIT #2: Mods would of course give them to worthly community members such as yourself... or me. :D

Well, Lastpilot made that logo for the GEEKHACK SIX ANNIVERSARY contest in 2013.

I suspect it is too large to be made into a star, at least anything recognizable as the original.

Maybe a little keycap icon with our year inside or something?

Maybe a modified version of this could be made for long time members and put as a signature. Dunno. I just like the image.

Yeah, Lastpilot is great at design. He made the logos for the GH60 and the JD40 (which I modified for the original JD45).

The keycap icon ideal would be pretty cool, maybe even make it so you could have the profile of your choosing! Not sure how feasible those things are as I have no ideal about making/maintaining a website, but it would be pretty sweet for multi year members. :)

It's disconcerting to know, that someone may have touched you on their monitors ..
