Are you talking about the texture on the word Smith? I used flamed maple to bump map some cocobolo thereby making a flamed cocobolo texture. The rest of the text is technically cocobolo as well but the lines are thin enough you really can't see the grain. I was going for multiple textures so the image wouldn't be too drab looking. I wanted to stick with wood textures due to the topic at hand, and it seems Mike is planning a wood theme for the forums.

Ken, I left the basses standing to the sides so they would stand against whatever background Mike uses for the forum. If he uses a wood texture for the background image, then the basses will stand against it instead of my quilt. It helps to make them more itegrated with the rest of the forum's look and not necessarily a part of the forum header.
