logomotive said on Feb. 05 '09

nice nav, I know what that's for, yeah GREAT name.

smartinup said on Feb. 05 '09

ribbit-ing. i can almost see the head animated popping up from the water line/text. glad to see movement on this idea nido.

logotivity said on Feb. 05 '09

nice'one

maximus said on Feb. 05 '09

I like the style!
I'm new to this, but upon a closer look, is he going cross-eyed?

logotivity said on Feb. 05 '09

http://logotivity.com/ <--- check it..

penflare said on Feb. 05 '09

haha logotivity, nice

hindmarshdesign said on Feb. 05 '09

Wow wow wow ! love this Heeeeeeeeaps.

LOGOMOTIVE said on Feb. 05 '09

do you have the domain name?

logotivity said on Feb. 05 '09

.com is taken.. possibility .org...?

logomotive said on Feb. 05 '09

that would work and might be more appropriate anyhow.

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

Thanks guys!

haha.. logotivity!.. that looks awesome!

@maximus... yeah he is slightly cross-eyed.. no particular reason other then i thought it gave him a bit of character!

wow.. baldfrog.com is taken?.. is the name bald frog itself being used anywhere???... must check that out.

do we need a website?... maybe... eventually.. hadnt thought about it.

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

Hmmm, wouldn't want to spoil a momentum, but since it appears that they have tm-ed that name, it might be wise to go back to naming all over again... i would hate to see all the money raised poor in to some lawyers pocket instead of the ones in need... pity...

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

good point.. hows about *BOLD FROG*?.. *"Band Of Logo Designers For Rights Of Generations"*... ?

bold in this instance makes more sense the bald after all?.. (& only requires a very minor change!)

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

... and its available :D

so if everyone's cool with that?...

logomotive said on Feb. 05 '09

yes, because it kida sounds like Bull frog too :-)

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

updated...

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

Now that was express and even better imho. Bold frog? Now back to drawing board and make it bold! :)

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

I can help with domain name (if it stay available for long time lolz) and hosting space (at least for a while, till it brake my dreamhost limits :)

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

haha.. i did think that.. but there is something bold about him.. he has the guts to stand up & be counted.. even though he might not stand too high!

stretching?

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

Hmm, i hope someone form here registered it, since it is not available anymore...

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

@logoholik.. that would be cool.. but i dont want to ask anyone to do more then add the logo on their sites to raise awareness.. you know?.. i cant imagine what we would need a site for although an "about" page somewhere would be cool.. (i did think of asking David for a page on here - logopond - as that way it would bring even more traffic to logopond & perhaps a bit attention to our work???)...

but if you can think of a good reason why we should have a site....

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

dunno... i feel that if we gonna do it, let's do it properly... one day it'll need a site perhaps, or at least a dedicated domain name, dunno... since bold frog is actually registered back in 2002 as it seems, where did you get it was available? :)

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

maybe we can use QuadMachine's naming machine and see what's available? ;) http://www.breadlinedesign.com/naming_machine/index.htm

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

just typed in boldfrog.com in my browser.. nothing more then that :s

logomotive said on Feb. 05 '09

it was reg. in 02 what about BULDFROG U =united?

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

hhmmm could use that breadline.. but bald/bold frog actually meant something!..

logomotive said on Feb. 05 '09

was org taken?

logomotive said on Feb. 05 '09

boldfrog.org is available grab it. This is an org

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

someone grab it quick!!! ..please!

so are we all still ok with the logo/name as it is presented?

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

hmm, just investigated boldfrog thru http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://boldfrog.com and it seems it is not live since 2005 and it was only a directory site of sorts from the beginning, boldfrog.org could be the option after all... let me know...

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

@logoholick.. get it in case.. & i'll be happy to contribute if you need...

@wilson.. thanks man.. initially all i wanted was for people to be happy to stick the logo on their site as stated & on page to talk about the idea..

logomotive said on Feb. 05 '09

nido, might be nice to have the type together? so it would allow to add the .org with a bubbles or something?

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

Ahh, Wes, in the middle of my purchase - and now they charged my card... bad timing...

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

nevermind, refund will be reused for something, good thing is that it is in safe hands :)

logomotive said on Feb. 05 '09

well glad it's one of you and not some idiot lurker or troll.

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

@Wes.. whats your email?.. & thanks

@logoholik.. good effort my man.. thanks ;)

@Mike.. ok.. but whats bubbles?

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

:) Wes, for a starter, until we have final logo ;) redirect it to a forum thread here, we can move this conversation there too :)

logomotive said on Feb. 05 '09

nevermind.

logomotive said on Feb. 05 '09

I guess it does not matter as much adding the type together and adding the .org because this will mostly be used as a linking logo.

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

^ agreed. makes sense. so it is official now? :)

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

if we're cool with the logo then its official :).. & we can move to the next phase!

I'll write up an about page... & we can start getting the logolink distributed!.. if anyone wants the source file let me know.

thisisnido@gmail.com

plus if you have friends who blog let them know too :)

yay!

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

@Tonfue.. cheers bud! very kind!!.. once i write up the 'about' page i'll post it to you & just set it up:)... email me... & get in touch with Wes.. he has the domain name.. (i dont really know much about web/hosting etc..)

logomotive said on Feb. 05 '09

It's your puppy (frog) Nido , you make that call, it works for me.

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

i'll put it up as soon as it links to about page or some explanation. Cheers all! Good effort! Pond became a true social site as it seems :) David, time to rethink it's growth as it seems branching in new dimensions :)

Muamer said on Feb. 05 '09

I am in! Genius idea... ! Congrats nido ;-)

ClimaxDesigns said on Feb. 05 '09

heh someone design a few standard banners :D

ClimaxDesigns said on Feb. 05 '09

heh someone design a few standard banners :D
Nido send me the illustrator file so i can make a banner for the footer of logopond, frog ...pond... fits

lundeja said on Feb. 05 '09

I dont get it???

nido said on Feb. 05 '09

"@ lundeja":http://logopond.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=2692

@ClimaxDesigns.. you got mail ;).. cheers bud!

logoholik said on Feb. 05 '09

lundeja, you can see it in action on my site :)

gyui said on Feb. 05 '09

really cool, awesome job and great idea nido! :)

epsilon said on Feb. 05 '09

Re: domain name - consider boldf.org, which is available.

lundeja said on Feb. 05 '09

Excellent! Thanks for clearing that up nido, logoholik. Great idea.

epsilon said on Feb. 05 '09

@nido: can you set http://logopond.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=2692 as "As seen at" link for the logo ?

cobaltcow said on Feb. 05 '09

Ahhhh sweet! It's alive!

Hit me with your best mail Toni :)

The legacy will make my grandkids proud (in 50 years)

cobaltcow said on Feb. 05 '09

Too bad I'm locked out of the forum again :( stupid spammers causing automated rules to boot me out..

morvarid said on Feb. 05 '09

woah cool :D

LoGoBoom said on Feb. 05 '09

ummmmm...does the frog look rather timid to anybody else? (as in not bold?) I know I'm late to this party but just a first impression.

logoholik said on Feb. 06 '09

Glen, i've had that same thought but i am perfect with nido's explanation. It does look like he's trying :)

nido said on Feb. 06 '09

...yeah Glen you dont have to look tough to be bold you know ;)... he may look timid.. but he still has the guts to try & make a difference.. thats what makes him bold!.. hows that for cornball!

OcularInk said on Feb. 06 '09

Hey nido, awesome logo, dude. I like how the one eye is fully out of water while the other is submerged. Looks like he's stalking us. Seems bold enough to me. :-) I'm here to help in any way to get this idea moving. If you need a designer for the site or for the web banners, I can help. Anyways, glad to see you starting this effort and to see so many of us already wanting to be involved. Welcome to the new revolution. :-)

raja said on Feb. 06 '09

rrrrrrrrrrrribbit!!

logotivity said on Feb. 06 '09

I can help with the website.. Give it some flair with some ajax or jquery.. Let me know..

sandhya said on Feb. 06 '09

bald or bull or bold frog! this is a great idea!

nido said on Feb. 06 '09

@Kev & Steve.. thanks guys.. we may need all the help we can get so hold tight.. but for now get the logo, add to your site & pick a cause :D

@Raja.. pretending to be a frog dont mean you'll get a kiss ;)

cheers!

ahab said on Feb. 06 '09

Great logo. Great idea. This is a movement now.

Great job, nido.

jwg said on Feb. 06 '09

logomotive said on Feb. 06 '09

Yeah nido, knows how to do it. One of the most underrated designers IMo the guy's a genius.

jsae said on Feb. 06 '09

Matheus said on Feb. 07 '09

raja said on Feb. 07 '09

nido said on Feb. 07 '09
