Title: Site Logo Poll
Post by: Arnox on June 02, 2014, 08:23:50 am
Once again, if you don't like it, now's the time to speak up. But again, if you don't like it, please specify an alternative you'd like to see. Also keep in mind that if we decide we don't want this logo, it may be a while before I can set up another suitable one.

You can't base a decision on 4 votes and 3 replies man. Don't get discourage.

I pose the question, Can anyone do better? If not then shut the fuck up it's pretty neat.

I think the way it is now it makes the news section unnecessarily long. If you are gonna keep it give it a good placement to jive with the sites mojo.

You know guys, you're supposed to put an ALTERNATIVE logo you'd like to see if you don't want it. I can't take half of these responses without an alternative.

It's not going there. It's going in the title somewhere if it gets voted in.

Why do we need a logo? Because some faggot suggested one? We don't need a logo Arnox. Pls remove the current one, if the community votes we keep a logo then we can have a suitable replacement designed.

Guys, seriously, I need alternatives. You don't like it, you need to suggest something else.

I think we are suggesting an alternative by saying no logo.

I don't know whether you mean not my logo or what. Either way though, why do we not want a logo? The Sanctuary title is fitting but it's too plain IMAO.

Someone just do a stylised vectored image of "Sanctuary" like sketched or something and use it as a header.

Look at all this reasonable well mannered discussion going on.

Post by: Shiva on June 02, 2014, 09:51:09 pm
I've made my thoughts clear, Arnox is just being bullheaded. Nobody wants a logo because it makes the place look cluttered. As I suggested earlier I think we should remove the current "sanctuary" banner and replace it with a stylised version in place of a logo.

^ I blame this faggot here.

I've made my thoughts clear
Yeah right. You even suggested to use another logo in chat, not to abandon them entirely. Nevertheless, the site looking cluttered is actually a valid criticism against using a logo.

The poll seems fairly conclusively against it. What does everyone think about a better rendered/drawn version of the current header to replace it instead of a logo?
Title: Re: Site Logo Poll
Post by: Spectre on June 02, 2014, 10:13:46 pm
I honestly see 0 problem with the header as it is without the shit bird. If you really want some sort of logo/tag thing make a thread and have people post their own or something. Who knows maybe somewhere down the line someone will come up with something really great instead of trying to shoehorn something onto the site that is totally unnecessary and doesn't really bring anything to the site aesthetically or otherwise.

TL:DR Logo isn't necessary at this juncture and should probably be something built out of community involvement and representative of that.

I mean no logo in general. It's not like somebody is gonna remember this site for the snazzy logo, if for anything people are going to remember this site for the kickass members and good times.

I like the idea of fuxxing with the title than having a logo...thats how it was on &t and &t2, and it worked fine

Post by: Hex535 on June 03, 2014, 04:30:29 am
I think everyone kind of just got about to discussing this wrong lol.

I agree with Arnox in saying that the site as is, of right now, is way too plain looking. We haven't done much to individualize it more-so than our name and purpose. At least an attempt in a logo was a valid effort to try and get some sort of work done. I don't think the design looks like shit, I think it's pretty good considering nobody else has yet to offer an alternative, and that it's by one of us.

NOW.

I also agree with the rest of the majority here, because the giant fucking space between then shoutbox, forum, and page header is pretty obnoxious. I have to cross a sea in order to see the rest of the only index page on the entire site. Making the already headache enticing continuity of the forum that much worse.

Seeing as we are in H&S anyways, May I offer a my 2 cents?

1. Instead of trying to get all jazzy, I whole hardheartedly think we should ALL BE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO MAKE THE SITE READ AND WRITE CLEARER. WE DON'T NEED TO GET ALL FUCKING FLAMBOYANT AND TRY TO BUILD THE FUCKING EIFFEL TOWER!! SERIOUSLY!! We have no fucking continuity! there is no header page, we have no mission statement, the entire forum just feels like a giant Innuendo, and it drives me a little bit bonkers, and this is me just being honest. SO I PROPOSE, that we work on maybe centralizing our efforts into re-creating our textfile archive and create an anthology the best we can from the first 2 sites (and further back if we can dig deep enough), recreating a mission statement, and "CHILLING THE FUCK OUT BRO WE'RE A COMMUNITY WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER!"

2. Instead of being so fucking defeatist and common all the time, figure out a way to not instantly call everyone else around you SHITBAD. we only call Newcomers shitbads, Not the fucking only reason you still have a forum to act like a 14 year old on. Instead of telling Arnox his logo sucks and he should die, think about the fact that he is a human being just like you are, and if you tell him calmly why you don't like it instead of immediately calling him a twat nugget and do what Shiva tried to do and validate a reason why he did not appreciate the logo.

THEN WE WOULDNT NEED TO WASTE 3 PAGES OF POSTS ON A BUNCH OF FUCKING GROWN ASS MEN CRYING ABOUT A PICUTRE  :tup:
