I voted yes. But i'm wondering if it would look better if it didn't have the circular thingy around the running guy?

I like the Running Forums.com part 
I'll have to think about a slogan for a bit...get back to ya on that. 
I do NOT like the AOL wannabe sprinter guy with the bubble quote sticking out of his head.

THAT's what it reminds me of!
Mayb him being bubbley compared to the straight edges of the rest of the logo is what throws me off?? i dunno. there is something about the runner guy i don't like...

Well, I don't think it would look better. It just needs some contrast colored background to separate logo from header background, but this background shall have regular shape so we could easily set transparency for that part which will allow us to change forum theme without logo changes! If you know what I mean? I can translate it in Spanish if needed??
so it will sound like this:
Bien, no pienso que miraría mejor. ¡Las necesidades justas un cierto contraste coloreó el fondo para separar insignia de fondo del jefe, pero este fondo tendrá forma regular así que podríamos fijar fácilmente la transparencia para esa parte que permitirá que cambiemos tema del foro sin cambios de la insignia!

Well it's not supposed to remind on AOL logo in any aspect.
Also it's not even similar to their 'wanna be a running guy' logo
However, I'd like to hear who voted for NO???

Yeah, it needs a slogan bad.
Maybe a picture of a real runner or two on the right hand side?
I dunno...I like having the real runners. Maybe it could be a rotating type thing, where members of the site can have their running photo on the banner if they do something very well...PR, win a race, etc.., etc...
just a suggestion.

Well, I'm not crazy about that particular shade of yellow, and the style is a bit generic, but overall it's ok. Different, for certain!

Well, yellow is there to 'kill' the monotone blue!
Something like this:

What I like:
1. The "AOL" guy.
2. The "Runningforums.com" words with shadows
What I don't like:
1. Although I like the shape of the "bubble" the running guy is in I don't really like the quote symbol above "his" head.
2. Contrast in color is too abrupt to the left of the word "Calulator." Maybe a more gradual color change.
What needs to be changed:
1. The line needs to be shortened under the word "profile"
2. "Cool slogan goes here"
Is "Member list" one or two words?
