I hate to complain, but is anyone else bothered by the scrolling 'Voices or Choices' icon?

I use Firefox, so perhaps its different for others, and right now I have 2 scrolling icons on my screen - one in the address bar and one on the tab. I find it distracting.

Please bare with it for now John, When time allows, I'll knock up some alternatives.

It's a new site, the layout has been put together from the ground up in the last couple of weeks.
Inevitably, you try new things, some work, other don't and some just need the wrinkles ironed out.

If you're using Firefox, I'd recommend installing the adblock plus add-on meantime and blocking the icon.

Thanks for your responses. I didn't expect any immediate changes, just thought I'd see if anyone else felt the same way.

By the way, I regularly go to 3 different Yuku sites and VoC definitely has the nicest design.

Thank you for your comments John, all feedback is welcome and very much appreciated.

It's difficult to design for a diverse community and obviously compromises come hand-in-hand with the task.
Without feedback we'd have no awareness of where it's going right, or wrong.

The hassle with the icon is that you only have 16 x 16 pixels area to work within in order to establish a logo/identity.
This is the precise size of that canvas >>

As you can see, that is a tiny area and huge restriction. I thought I may have overcome it with the scroll text.
I will definitely do whatever I can to come up with an alternative but thought I would explain the situation and request folks patience and/or suggestions until a bolt of inspiration strikes me.

Given the infrequency of those bolts, thankfully there's always Adblock meantime.

I found it was very easy to block the scrolling favicon with Firefox adblock (though it took me two tries to get it to stick...if you bookmarked the site with the scrolling favicon, after you block that particular image, re-bookmark it and delete the old bookmark...that seemed to be how it was reappearing). It does take a little time to scroll through all the blockable items to find the one that's the favicon, but if it bugs you, it's a relatively easy and permanent way to get rid of it. When you get rid of it, the default yuku favicon shows up instead.

Nope.
It will have reappeared because I re-hosted all the site images and buttons for Hawkeye so he could participate despite the filters at work.
You block address, not the image.
If I were maliciously inclined I could've had hours of fun swapping hosts on you. Fortunately I'm too busy to indulge those temptations.

I'm going to have to keep my eye on you.
