the ones at the top of the page should link to the main page. it's a simple change that would make the website more usable.

Simple? You call that a "simple" change?! Do you have any idea what it takes to make such an image clickable? The bureaucracy surrounding the use of hyperlinking in forum logos is astounding. Merely filling out the forms required to apply for a request for a license to inquire about the possibility of clickability takes over a year. The laws on the books necessitate a team of surveyors and monthly inspectors just to get the project started. Do you really think Bisqwit has the time and money for all that? And that's not even considering the moral and ethical implications involved. By adding a link from the forum to the main page in the form of an image, you fundamentally alter the structure of the World Wide Web. Millions more bytes flow to places they otherwise wouldn't. Billions of dollars are lost as the management attempts to cover the cost of stumbling upon web pages that were best left alone, and complaints lead to lawsuits lead to hate leads to anger leads to suffering. You seriously want that guilty burden on your back? So while your intentions may have been good, you must now agree that this whole idea was laughable and doomed from the start. Perhaps one day you will learn to work within the system rather than against it. One day you may have an idea that is truly worth considering. But not today.
put yourself in my rocketpack if that poochie is one outrageous dude

Sup Bag, Great post man. Really, that was hilarious! Have you thought about becoming a proffessional writer? Because I think you could really make it, with the subtle jokes and the sarcastic comments people don't really get and everything! Truly top notch stuff. Let me know how it works out if you try it! Your friend, Fabian

Simple, but not a trivial change, considering that the logo is not a separate image, but instead, part of the background image. But I made it nevertheless.

But there is a link in the top right (...game movie site Nesvideos.) This somewhat defeats the purpose, I'd assume. =|

It seemed appropriate after reading Bag of Magic Food's post.
