No your eyes haven't deceived you, we are doing a touch of the spring-cleaning around here. New logo for the forum, and seeing as how yon network has gone the way of the dodo it's time to reclaim the name.
Now the all black background is just a place holder, I shall do a wee image to go in the backdrop of the Hub (as envisaged by Geoff Senior in G2 issue 12) but what I want is for some characters to go ether side of the text, in that old school - Autobots on the left, Decepticons on the right.
Cast your lot here for who you want to see (and if a character has several different body types - please specify) and I will see what I can do. Naturally any of our fellow artists can feel free to pick a character or two.

There would of course as well be some space above Transmasters as well.

There is only one Super-Warrior who can truly represent the fun and intellect of this forum. Computron. And wahooooo indeed on getting the Hub back!  |

Well the original domain is long gone, but I feel it's long overdue we took the name back.

Well, I'd like to see either Jetfire or Grimlock - both original toyesque - for the Autobots, and either Shockwave or Soundwave - Marvel comics flavours - for the Decepticons. And hurrah for a nice new-smelling logo!

FANTASTIC! Yes, it's always been The Hub far as I'm concerned.
Gee, I wonder whome I could suggest for the banner......
PRRROOWWLLLL!!!!!!!
And Shockwave!

Well Shockwave seems to be a popular choice.
I'll do my best to get the background done tomorrow, thinking I will draw it A3 in size and pretty as background as I think a nice wee Hub poster could be in order...

I like the new banner even with the plain black background. Characters to add though? I shall put in the obligatory vote for Longtooth.

I weep tears of joy to see The Hub name back on the forum.
Before the Hub was...we was!

As a noob can anyone provide a potted history so I understand the significance? Or is that more the kind of hoary tale that needs to be told in a dark tavern corner?

I believe G who had the-hub.co.uk at the time was asked to change. One of those I am not allowed to talk about it dealies. But the Hub is dead, long live the Hub. Andy |

Oh right, wow. I thought it might have been something to do with the other Transmasters fan group, not a conflict with the actual Hub TV network. Blimey, they asked you to change the domain? cheeky blighters. I get it now. I was thinking you were referring to some age old struggle with other fans over domain name rights.

*off topic rambling*
I think flicking through Legacy was the first time I have ever seen/paid attention to Computrons boxart. It's kind of bad.
