Hey, Everybody, Should We Have a New Name and a New Logo?


Promoting Wales in the USA

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions so far.....please keep them coming. Its kind of a dilemma for us. We like the name and we like the logo BUT we have somewhat outgrown both. Changing the name is a non-starter for the foreseeable future since that would have unfavorable SEO repercussions but we are looking at everyones suggestions for a redesigned logo and/or site banner. Diolch.

What does anyone think about keeping the logo but redesigning the banner to reflect the international composition of the site. I realise we havent revisited this topic for a while but we were thinking of doing some sort of redesign fairly soon. Any ideas?

OK....Messrs Davies and Phillips..we appreciate that you are enjoying a full and frank discussion of your differences here and its all very entertaining for the rest of us too BUT might I respectfully suggest that you take a time out,, choose your seconds and meet with pistols at dawn. That way you could settle the matter while the rest of us concentrate on the logo issue.

Isn't the theory that his father was the king of Ceredigion? I've never seen anything that said he was Irish.

I like the image but I'd be a bit concerned about plonking the AC dragon in the middle of a picture of the glode. It would look like we were advocating some kind of new American Welsh world order. That wouldnt go down too well methinks.

hmmmmmm.....maybe we should come up with a list of possible designs and ask the members to vote on it. Or even include a logo competition in the Eisteddfod?

I like World Wide Welsh....although some people might think we were encroaching on their territory if we went with that....my main concern at the moment though is how the hell do I wrap a Maple Leaf around that dragon without making the whole thing look daft.

Well...thats that then....back to the substantive issue of designing a new logo. I reckon we should keep the name as is...but we certainly need to incorporate the Maple Leaf into the design somewhere or somehow. We dont want to lose the dragon but we would'nt mind a design that incorporated the Canadian emblem somehow. We have a fair few Canadian members and we would like to attract more. Any ideas?
