It's the logo for Ohio Chatter at the top. Notice how the "O" in Ohio is left out because it's in the "Ohio Bubble." Well why isn't the "C" in Chatter left out as well because there's a "C" in the bubble as well. Just seems like we got an extra C in there when we don't need it. It looks great otherwise.

I think the O is represented by the State of Ohio outline not the OC inside.

I think the plan was for the state outline to replace the O in Ohio

I guess I'm just not very aware of things at my advanced age, but was this change mentioned along the way because I just opened to this and it told me I needed to do everything but sell a grandchild to get on the new site. So far, as a person who rejects change fairly automatically, I don't care for the new site. I understand that I am a technological zero but when I get comfortable with one system, someone out there must realize it and immediately changes everything.

There was an announcement put up about a week ago announcing the upcoming change. There was also a thread discussing it.

The "O" is the outline of Ohio, not the O inside of Ohio.

Blame j_crazy if you don't like it, it was his suggestion. :)

You shouldn't listen to his suggestions when he's been drinking.

J_crazy and Snotbubble put that together and you wonder why it looks tucked up. You must be new around these parts.

Actually, j_crazy threw out the idea based on the shape of Ohio that I already had. Snot put something together but the colors looked weird on the blue background. Snot failed, 'cause he sucks at everything. ;)

Nope. But, it's also just a logo for a forum. No need to invest a ton of time into it, really. I'm not creating any sort of "brand" here.

Just my opinion, but I would ditch the "OC" inside the state, make the state outline a little smaller and slide "chatter up underneath.

I agree with Manowar, that would make the state outline recognizable as the O in Ohio. Otherwise, I did the same thing, thinking you forgot the O or added an extra C.

FWIW, he said he is going to change it to that in another thread (I think in the stickied suggestions thread?)

That...or it because there is a movement in his area for Ohio to annex this area, due to it being called the Greater Cincinnati area...???
