OK - I missed that t-shirt posted above when I replied because I was on the train. Should this matter? My logo is the reverse of that, only the orange is similar, and the small center triangle extends beyond the baseline. That shirt image is also exactly that - an image, whereas I'm trying to make mine be the logo for the site.

I may be biased here, but as we conceived this logo organically through teamwork, it's final result was a product of our efforts, not inspired by an outside influence.
The image I made is based off specific dimensions for reasons illustrated in the above image using different scaling and placement than the ugmonk shirt.
Besides, we're talking triangles here.
It won't take long for your logo to be relevant organically on its own merit.

mg33, so if you initially wanted, but don't like the flag because it is no longer "flat" as presented above. Why do you like the globe, as it is not "flat" either? Are there other icons you could draw inspiration from instead of the globe and maybe a telescope or even something as simple as a compass to give reference to the expedition itself. I'm not sure if they make land sextants, but you get my point. That way you can still work something fitting in the small icon space. As far as the aperture in the logo, that has photography written all over it.

You guys are really great. I said this already, but I never posted this stuff originally expecting or wanting any feedback. Well, I expected feedback, but the overall constructiveness made it really fun and made me step back and consider far more than I did at first. Such a fun time.
It's been a fun site to work on while I've been unemployed. Hopefully will have a new job soon and that gives me all the more reason to get things fully up and running!

OK, here's a thought. I really like wireframe globe and I'm thinking about instead of using the lines, fill the solid space instead with orange on top, green on bottom. I'd use a different globe with larger sections from the latitude/longitude lines. Ex: something like this but with straight horizontal lines.
Again, I really appreciate all the advice. I knew this site was good for something. ;)

- My guess is that the right column and footer spacing are not equal. Footer spacing might be variable from left to right.mg33

Yeah, it's cool JackRyan! I'm psyched about getting this off the ground. I'm getting laid off from my job and about to have some (hopefully short-term) free time on my hands to really move things along.

On interior pages like this: http://www.expeditionbureau.com/… the line height of the titles seems kind of huge.
Also it seems strange that the nav items aren't vertically centered in the navigation bar.
Looks good overall though, nice concept and site

ukit2 - Thanks for taking a look. I might decrease the line height to tighten it up.
Also, the nav in this theme is left aligned. I could change it, but not sure how that would affect the responsive format.
- Oh yeah the left alignment is fine, I meant the vertical positioning not horizontal.ukit2
- Updated the post titles spacing.mg33
- Also this is a smaller detail, but you might want to take a look at the widget titles in the right hand column. The spacing underneath the white lines seems kind of inconsistent.ukit2
- underneath the white lines seems kind of inconsistent (between search and the others for instance).ukit2
