*ahem* I know that, just like to give people a hard time. Also, in America, there is only one way to do things, our way, as proved by the American measurement system and so forth. ;)

The rest use Imperial?
It makes sense I guess, they are called International measurement Standards after all.

Anyway, back on topic, this looks awesome, I wouldn't mind trying my hand at the second 2, since my graphics skills are non-existent for the first

Organise/organize, realise/realize, conceptualise/conceptualize

All the "ise" words are spelled with a z only by Yanks.

I figured that's how it worked, but my spell check always says conceptualise is wrong, so I went with the z. the s looks so much more sophisticated, doesn't it? Now that I know it's a stupid national thing, I am going to start using the s again. ;)

Anyway, 360*40px is small. can you double check that? Photoshop gives me this size:
