Guys,
I'm sorry but that logo looks AWFUL in the current site design! I'm SORRY but it has to be said!

I think we have two options

1) Either redesign the whole site to make it sit in harmoney with the logo!

OR

2) Redesign the logo to fit the site!

From a personal point of view i strongly believe the logo doesn't reflect the idea of bushcraft, it gives me the impression of a "family sunday strolling club"

I don't want to get your backs up-i just want to give my opinion-i want the site to grow and be very fruitful in the future!

Like it! Not sure about the green though. When will they be made available, Tone, you should sell them over the site. :-D

Cheers,

Jake

Looking good Tony! :wink: I'm sure the site will adjust organically around the logo with time, so give it some time. It's a good solid icon for us all to get behind, and I for one am looking forward to wearing it on a T-shirt! :super:

Hi Tone,

You gotta remember to keep it simple. When do you think they will be available?

Cheers,

Jake

I wouldn't go that far but I think you are right. The logo doesnt fit with the current website design..... but I do like the logo.... its growing on me since I first saw it and prefer it to the old one.

Can't wait to see a couple of badge designs with the new logo..... especialy on a non white background.

Looking forward to it :)

I really like the design as its simple and would arouse questions about our beloved subject, due to the fact of being along the lines of FCUK apparel.

One thing id like to suggest though, is to have the website address across the back and not on the front. I feel having it there is much better for it to be seen than on your belly, where if your a little `padded` could make the wording follow your contours :lol:

Dark green and black would be my choice of t-shirts.

i have to go with the negitive crowd. i don't like the new logo far too corporate and says nothing about the outdoors.

i for one would have liked to have seen more consultation with the members of the forum. a major change to the site identity should have been offered to a poll rather than a select few.

i respect the guys running the site need the final say but we are supposed to be a community. IMHO

hope i haven't stepped on any toes.

Right...LETS PUT IT TO A VOTE!

We live in a democracy, right tone? Why dont you set up a proper vote, enabling all the members to choose. It will then close at a certain date, once everybody has had theres. Whatever the final outcome, so be it, it is the majority.

And to stop people voting twice, just start a new thread where people write down what they want (A, B, or C), if someone votes twice, then one of there votes will be disallowed.

Put up the designs at the begining of the thread, and let us choose!

An idea?

Cheers,

Jake :-D

We are not really a community. This is the forum section of Tony's site. While we are more than made at home it is Tony's right and some would even argue, his obligation to make the decisions. Consultation is one thing but the buck stops with him. Anything run by committee will end up as a fudge.

Unfortunately, I have to agree with you on that. It's not that I disagree with democracy but when you have to listen to what could be over 400 voices, it sounds like work to me!

Change is always difficult to accept ... I was over on Bladeforums today and I was shocked/horrified by the change to the layout ... but the bottom line is that the quality of the info there is just as good, and I'll get used to the format pretty quickly.
