How do I get mt5 logo to make banners and promote it? :)

Hi Grace... as I mentioned to your [previous comment](http://www.movabletype.org/2009/09/mt5_beta.html#comment-29743):

> We'll have some logos as we get closer to official release. We'll provide them as part of a blog entry here when they're ready.

Thank you Beau. I checked the comments before posting here.. Sorry :(

Hi Beau,

I'm new to MT and have not had experiences with any of the other versions of MT. I downloaded MT5 B2 so I can have a go at it. I've created a couple of pages and assigned tags to each page. I am trying to modify the template so I can have a different layout based on the tag name. However, I am unable to retrieve the tag name for each page. The following is what I have in my template but nothing is displayed - . Since I don't have experiences with the other versions, I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, or whether this is a known issue in MT5.

Thanks,
Tracy

Sorry, the code I posted in my previous comment did not display...let me try again -->

I am using the PageTags in combination with the TagName tags to try to retrieve the tag for the current page.

Thanks,Let waiting for the MT5 Final!

I have to say when I decided to install the beta I was definitely shocked at the complete redesign of the admin area. It took a while to get familiar with it but overall I think this can actually grow on you. It's very clean in layout, good colour palette, especially for the website and blog views. However, you can tell it's a beta because there were bugs but that is normal with any beta. I would really like to see a pro level high-end cms editor be part of the default system and scrap the others that are there. I mean seriously, the main purpose of a cms is to manage content but how do we do that? With an editor! This seems to be common with many cms systems that they just don't put a solid editor or they base theirs on tinymce (as a web designer, I am not a fan of).
