Actually, to be honest, it hit a 1,000 posts a while ago, but I was busy then and forgot to address it so here it is, late. :P
We started this site on the 8th of May, 2014 and between then and now, we've gained back a lot of our core users, made incredible strides in adding functionality to the forum, and bit by bit, refined our own way of doing things. We've had contributions of all kinds from DIY defensive tools to bleach to cars to bad poetry to cows to books and so on. And I'd like to say, to all of you who have contributed in any way, you have my gratitude. Not to mention all the good times we've already had together in general.
It's has been tough too. Make no mistake. We've also had our problems. Threats against the site, forum software difficulties, and issues with punishment to name a couple. But I don't want to focus on our problems as we're always taking care of them. This site will survive, I assure you. I'm never going to just leave it in the dust no matter how problematic it gets. I think it's a testament to the power of totse's ideals that even after being brought down twice (technically three times if you count totseans.com), we've still bounced back from it. Just as a phoenix arises from its ashes.
And speaking of such, in order to commemorate our 1000th post and as a gift to you all, I have taken the time to make ourselves a full logo. It's not the BEST quality but I hope you'll all find it suitable.

And here's the transparent version:

A tribal phoenix, as you can see. This can also be easily slapped onto the site title, given that I blur it a little and color it appropriately. Be sure to tell me what you think.
And that should be it. Here's to many more weeks of Sanctuary. You guys are the best. Without you, there is no forum really. And with that, I bid you all adieu.

Dude, that logo is fucking gay.

You better be more descriptive than that if you really expect me to listen to you.

It looks like a god damned retarded eagle with mange. Is that descriptive enough? Seriously it looked like hammered shit. What happened to the other one?

OK. What other one?
EDIT: Actually, you guys are right. It does look like utter crap and I'm sorry. I'll trash the images on my computer and take out the links. We can use something else.

We don't need a gimmicky logo. If anything just use stylised text of the forum name.

Woopdee dooo
Anyways on more interesting subjects...elaborate on 'threats to the forum'

great job everyone (even shiva) let make it 100,000 before the years out ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

So, I didn't have the balls to get rid of the logo I posted. Why? Because I spent a long hour and a half making it. Now, if you guys really don't like it at all, that's fine. You just need to tell me your honest opinion and not be trollin' as I think some of you are. Also, if you think it just needs some improvements, tell me as well so I can do that.

Why would that not result in a perma-ban?

Why would that not result in a perma-ban?
Because they could have been joking/saying stuff just to say it. Should we permaban anyone that looks at us the wrong way?

Then ir wasn't a threat against the site...it was someone joking around. Talk about drama queen
Anyways...not that the black pigeon icon is horrible or anything, more along the lines of inappropriate, but... I had epiphany while cavorting around on a pirate ship earlier.
Pirate ship.
Yarhh and stuff

No.

Never heard of it.
Its still better than the nigger bird

Huzzah!
The logo looks pretty good to me, like a rough spray painted phoenix. I'd make it more simple and pointier but I like it.
A doorway to not only represent knowledge but for the name into sanctuary, it could be appropriate.

sooo...when the site hits 2,000 posts...then what? the entire membership base gets a free BJ from the admin(s?) and mods, rite?
