    Default Apple_Windows logo - golden

    A mixture of Apple and Windows.

    What would you do to make it different, but, still golden?
    All suggestions welcome.

    Gold isn't the best background for Gold

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    I decided to put my idea into a picture, I was thinking that instead of black for the background maybe a complementary color such as a dark maroon or burgundy, the reflection is optional. Just a thought portrayed here although I still like the way you did it.

    EDIT: Looking at what I did I find I don't really like the reflection added.

    Thanks for your comments everyone.

    beret: Yes, I did think of that and the dark background does make it stand out.
    Steve: 'Teeth marks'?! It's real gold. I don't need to test it!
    James: I have no idea what William Tell looks like?!
    David: 'fan-bois'?! The Mac world and the OS is a strange experience.
    Larry: The dark backgrounds and reflections seems to be a preference, but, I deliberately went with the gold one. And I genuinely appreciate the input from you and beret.

    Everyone will have their own preferences and I like that.

    Any ideas on how to improve the Apple_Windows logo itself?
