Title: What happened to the picture of RLH?
Post by: Crusader03 on February 13, 2012, 02:11:43 PM
I noticed that the tribute has been taken down in favor of a UIC logo.  Any word on why?

This can be moved to the RLH discussion...I just couldn't locate it.

There's a thread over at

http://www.valpofanzone.com/forum/index.php?topic=410.msg6222#msg6222 (http://www.valpofanzone.com/forum/index.php?topic=410.msg6222#msg6222)

The photo couldn't last forever as a banner.  But, for now, his initials are still there.

Thanks agibson...still would like to see the picture of RLH stick around, but I suppose you're right.

Yes, the picture tribute was temporary and had run its course, but RLH's initials will be a permanent tribute on each banner from here on out.

Just an FYI, if you ever want to see the old site banners, you can go to http://www.valpofanzone.com/banners/ (http://www.valpofanzone.com/banners/) and see them all.

There's a joke in there somewhere about the average longevity of a Valpo fan and the impact on font size.  But, I can't quite manage the gallows humor.

RIP RLH.

I was planning to leave my signature tribute to rlh there for as long as seems appropriate. My idea of appropriate stems from the longevity of rlh on the Valpo message boards. It will be there quite a while.

Still trying to figure out the humorous part.
