I know I am new but I was wondering about the banner on this forum, what is it meant to be, I am guessing maybe burning bush, fish symbol on an Israeli flag?

clueless

You never know.......

no the true answer is much more boring.

'I have no graphic design skills'.

the picture is a simple Isarel flag, with a fish (adopted by most christians as an unnofficial emblem). The thing in the background is actually an olive tree (a metaphot from the new testament book of Romans).

For someone that has little skill you effort is very good. It took me awhile to work out the tree.

Dear Steve,

My I be so bold and request an attempt to create a banner for your fourm.

The current one is good, but It does look a little questionable.

Forgive me I know you worked hard on it.

Thank you.

work hards on it... you must be kidding, it took about five minutes in photoshop.

now apart from photography, I have ne design skills (forum permitting) and so would be delighted to see what you can do...

is this your line of work or are you just the arty type.

Steve

p.s. PM me and I will send you my email address.

Dear Steve

Running and creating a site is hard work, I too am a owner of three sites. Any effort is worth praise.

No I am no graphic designer, I am just a mere Nurse, but I think I might be able to help with a banner.

Thank you.

Here is one its on the left early Jewish art work with Messanic symbol between a Christain Artwork of the dove of peace, set on an Israel flag.

If I may voice an opinion, that is lovely JTFW, I like the dove but the Messianic symbol is questionable in some circles and the depiction of a angelic being is in violation of Torah, to me anyway.

JewishTaskForceWoman · Subject: Re: The banner Mon Jan 07, 2008 1:44 am

Well I was trying to be liberal when I created it.

I have done two more since then. I will show you.

Messianic symbol ? Why is it questionable? Sorry I am have nothing to do with them, so very much in the dark regarding that.

Steve has spoken to me requesting a more Jewish style and more blue theme.

When I tried to put Hebrew over it, well it failed haha.

May be if I use the dove and the wall?

I will try, if you got any ideas please tell me.

I have time on my hands and I like playing with the graphics.

Thank you.

I like the wall and the scroll, but I also like the one above in that its very vivid and I like the dove. I agree with Psalms though about the angel, cant grasp why people go gaga over them, they are after all servants. (that sounds a bit stuck up but what I mean is that we worship God not his servants!!!!)

I will see what ideas i can come up with. The last one is nice however I don't like casual use of the tetragramaton. ( if anyone wants to know why, just ask:) )

JewishTaskForceWoman · Subject: Re: The banner Tue Jan 08, 2008 1:55 am

Ok how about this now?

Tetragrammaton (from the Greek τετραγράμματον, meaning 'having four letters'), refers to the Name written with four letters, namely יהוה, the name of the God of Israel, as preserved in the original consonantal Hebrew Bible text.
These four letters are usually transliterated JHWH in German, French and Dutch, and either YHWH, YHVH, JHWH or JHVH in English.
For discussions about what vowels to read, and whether to pronounce
it as a word, and about the god that these names refer to, see Yahweh and Jehovah.

It does not say Israel , it says G-d's name.

Pardon, I thought she was referring to this one where you took out The Name? Under that menorah it says Israel between the olive branches. Smile
