Is this the actual SLASH official logo? Or do us members get to vote on what we would like?

Yep, that be the official logo of SLASH. We are not voting on the LOGO, it was developed over the last couple months by the board members.

Hmmm I dont like it, it looks like an Alien. Not a Reef Logo. When do members get to vote for things?


I nominate a Logo change.
 
ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS!

I has been proposed that our logo be changed.

This is your opportunity to exercise your rights as a SLASH member and let your voice be heard.

We request that ALL members submit an email to slashclub@yahoo.com stating whether they want the logo to be changed.

We have been waiting for the logo to be finished before we have membership cards printed. The logo change will increase the length of time before we can get the card printed and into your hands but if the membership wishes the logo to be changed we will happily oblige.

Please submit your vote no later than Friday, May 19th.

I think it's a great idea...The extended time with the cards is a small fraction to have something that the majority likes for the long haul.


I'm fine with photoshop, but I agree with Josh...I'm fine with whatever...I assure you I won't lose sleep over our logo:D

It is easy to pick when there is only one to pick from. So Mark lets see what you got?

Sorry Dennis I do not have anything as of yet. I will email something when I do.

Greg the High Res photo looks really good, I just think there is to much detail to try and shrink it down to fit as a small logo.
 
Mark,

We're interested in the T shirt value more than we are the small logo but even the avatar will fit a membership card just fine and with the better resolution available via printing we think it will look good.

Neither of the pictures that I have shown are the high resolution one. Roy Caldwell sent me a 4.7mb. version of the shrimp. You can count hairs on it. He has granted us permission to use his photo.

We were looking for something unique yet interesting. We believe that the mantis on a T shirt will be an excellent conversation starter.
 
I don't disagree with you on the Manits being a good conversation starter, but however it all depends who you want to target for membership.

Are you trying to display it to the public on a TShirt to get members in? Most of the general public or very few Newbies will not know what a Mantis shrimp is, so if they see it on a Tshirt then it might not get the results you want.

The logo has to be a marketing tool, as well as something unique.
 
Not to sound like I have a opinion one way or another but would you put a mantis shrimp into your reef tank guys ? I would think the logo would be of something that is reef safe and can be keep by most Reef Tank Reefers .

The name of the club does not have the word reef in it.

Saltwater Hobbyists encompasses ALL aspects of keeping marine animals ... not just reefs.
 
I think that if people want to change the logo they should have some kind of idea as to what it should be, not just, "I don't like it." We're all entitled to our opinions, that's what makes this club great, but some input/designs as to what this should be changed to would be more beneficial than just voicing your opinions :) Just my $.02 :thumbsup:

I don't know what others meant because I can't speak for them, but I can for myself...Why don't people with suggestions, etc... submit them to be voted on to cut it down to 3 or 4 and then vote on it... At no point was I implying that I "just don't like it" and fix it...But coming up with ideas and breaking out photoshop at 1am to have an idea to submit??? Anyone who is going to try to create some ideas, probably needs more than a couple of hours.

I personally don't mind the logo and there's a good chance it would be voted in regardless. I just like the idea of having a majority vote on what the logo is.


I'm pretty easy going, so, if we keep it, great. If we have additional logos to vote on great.
 
I think it'd be cool if people posted their ideas in this thread, that way everything is centrally located :) I wasn't trying to upset anyone, I just know how hard Dennis worked on that logo and I think it'd be cool to see some other members' talents too, to make things easier on Dennis and to get some new ideas :)
