There's a subject line that guarantees click-through. :)

Maybe a Minefield-esque bomb?

I like the crash-test dummy symbol, but the current one is pretty hidious.  Want to whip something up?  Pweeze?  For Ted?

I think I hit r-, but I may have just clicked wildly to make this go away.

ok, srsly...

This thought just occurred to me, and was easy to do by just hiding a layer. I actually like it better than the current one, although it still has the somewhat-garish yellow/black. [I'm not particularly enamored by the design, just tossing it out as an easy incremental improvement.]
