Is it only me?

Ok folks, here are some constructive criticism about FU.
These are my honest opinions, no offense please.

Anyone else thinks that FU logo is boring? And using it as "forum status icon" in the forum front page makes it even more boring. Especially "Forum Contains New Posts" icon. F and U letters in both sides of the building? Come on now guys, you can be more creative than that!

Here is my modest proposal:

Use default icons in forum front page: 1 (http://www.forumuniversity.com/campus/images/lustrous/statusicon/thread_new.gif) 2 (http://www.forumuniversity.com/campus/images/lustrous/statusicon/thread_hot_new.gif) 3 (http://www.forumuniversity.com/campus/images/lustrous/statusicon/thread.gif) 4 (http://www.forumuniversity.com/campus/images/lustrous/statusicon/thread_hot.gif) . Those light colors are balancing the dark skin of vBulletin.
Get a new logo, maybe a logo design contest among members? Offering 1 year text link on front page as prize?


What do you guys/gals think?

Never really gave it that much thought. I guess it's not the most exciting logo out there but it's not that bad. I don't think the logos you've suggested would fit in at all on the front page.

No idea if a logo contest is really the best type for this kind of forum either since I doubt too many of us are graphic designers.

Well, I was thinking loud actually.
I'll try to make some logos when I have spare time in my hands, if you guys don't mind of course. Just for fun :)

To me, yes the current logo is fine.

I was actually highly impressed by FU skin So i bought a VB license and this skin both, But i am yet to use these 2 softwares i bought :) $115 in the name of FU.

The logo is doing fine and not at all boring. Its actually matching the whole scene. What s wrong with FU (provided u dun think it other way ;) )
