New name/logo? [RESOLVED]
Judging from the /diy/ thread (now 404'd) many people think that the project should have a different name. Anyone agree, or better yet, have any suggestions for a new name?
And does anyone think we should have a logo?

Re: New name/logo?
I do like Agartha though it wouldnt be a bad idea to get away from names considered legendary or mythical but thats gona be hard to do.

Re: New name/logo?
True.
I'll probably set up a new poll later on, once we have quite a few more members.

Re: New name/logo?
Just bumping this thread to see if anyone's interested in a new logo.
Maybe reinstate the old hand/eye design?

Re: New name/logo?
Alrighty, here's my crack at some sort of logo.
Bit of symbolism, tree for sustainability and other lovely things like that, faceless people for that idea of anon to keep with the roots but not make it so obvious that it is 4chan based (as to not frighten outsiders with the reputation /b/ has gained the whole site(looking back on this the faceless people and the eye don't help the not being scary... eh.. nevermind.), more than one person to show community, and the triangle is a pretty strong shape because bridges n !@#$.
Aaaand the eye. Y'know, just cause.
Am I on the right track? Anyone want to add something?
Also, I feel that knowledge is an important value as I see it pop up in many topics... Not quite sure how to show that without shoving a book in some corner. Maybe the eye ticks that box somewhat. I don't even anymore, I'm tired as. Suggestions?

Re: New name/logo?
Might be best to keep things simple, so as to not draw attention from the wrong people and be seen as a cult of some kind.
It would be a shame if some rich/powerful religious nutbag decided to start some crap with us because we get unintentionally branded as the illuminati alien cult of gaia (no offense but that was my first impression from the pic).

Re: New name/logo?
If I saw a community with that as it's logo, I might be worried. Not trying to be insulting or anything. It's not the art style but the meaning (being so similar to Illuminati symbolism).
Why not just use a tree? The tree is a symbol of balance with nature. It also has double meaning. The roots, or "under-branches", the hidden world out of sight.
Just a random tree stencil I grabbed from Google.

Re: New name/logo?
Yeah, I also really like the tree idea, especially if combined with the "under branches" concept awesomad mentioned. It reminds me of the axiom 'as above, so below'.
