    I don't have migraines with headaches, but I get what is called 'visual migraine (scintillating scotoma) which is caused by exposure to sudden flashing lights - like flash cameras or headlights. I don't think this flashing r is strong enough to bother ME - but can appreciate how much it might trouble others.

    It really needn't FLASH - if people are looking for the information, just being red will show it up!
    Why not take a quick look at my Stores?

    Maybe it was made flashy to look "flashy"

    Now the site is getting busier, perhaps its time the "r" had a makeover..

    I still am undecided though

    I think an icon similar to sunnybooks logo in post 13 would be great. An R with a line through it = no reserve. No line=reserve. Simple, easy to recognize, and NO FLASHING!
