• I like this the best as it places a greater emphasis on By Kiwi Teachers for Kiwi Teachers. I even wonder whether the font for this piece of text could be larger. It to me is the important message that needs to be spelt out. Maybe the heading font from option 3 could be used here - as I like the Globe look of the OERNZ News.

That's a very good point -- being so immersed in things open, I tend to forget how important the message of "By Kiwi Teachers for Kiwi Teachers" is -- I take this for granted. Particularly for folk not familiar with open models -- this is a VERY important message. Thanks :-) --Wayne Mackintosh 04:46, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
