[edit] Infobox Image

The current infobox image [[Image:KiscLogo.png]] is extremely ugly- the text serves no purpose because we already know what the centre is called... I suggest reverting to the image of the snowflake on its own [1] which is quite often used without the text, its even used on the flag in the photo on this page Stevecull 15:34, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

The centre's corporate logo and image is that image with the text. If it's ugly or not, that's what their new image is. The crystal on its own is an old image. When people see this article they should see the new corporate image. That's what i think! --Ablaze (talk) 18:25, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
It doesn't quite fit with those on Gilwell Park and Larch Hill either though. I don't know. The text seems superfluous in the context of an infobox. Stevecull 09:00, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
The text is actually part of the centres new image. If you think the crystal on its own looks better i guess we should use it, but i thought the image on the infobox should be something like their corporate image, not just a symbol. Plus we shouldn't be trying to mold all articles or infoboxes so that they look like the 'rest' of them! Each article is different. (and yes i know that there should be some level of consistency between articles!) --Ablaze (talk) 10:13, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
It doesn't bother me that much but i just don't think it looks great, most Scouting logos in infoboxes have just the logo and it looks well Stevecull 11:21, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
