By the way, I think everyone should have codenames on the blog. Just putting it out there, but it'd seem stupid to either post anonymously or to post using your real names or names on here. I'm putting a proposal forward for codenames based on mythical sea creatures, then I can use Jasconius. Which I love. Does anyone also like this idea?
Yes, I like this.
For the sake of The Effect, I will be known as Coelacanth!
(OK yes, it's not truly mythical but was once thought to be, and has the distinction of being once believed extinct as well.)

Don't mean to offend you, but I don't think it's appropriate to put part of your own avatar (and hence identity) into the logo. Some forms of crediting you should be enough, instead of appearing to promote you. I don't decry the quality of your image though.
I think the logo ought to be more of a derivative of the Tagruato logos, with the word 'effect' in mind. Still ruminating on it myself.

I can change my avatar, but I was thinking the symbol would be appropriate, as it stands for chaos, or cause-and-effect

It could have some more strenght, a less delicate font type maybe. But I do like the arrowy thing.
And I'll be Theseus. Sure, not a creature, but if we already have a fish and an Old One, I can be a hero, right?
EDIT: I'm kind of slow today. Eddy you're saying that if we write a mail to that add you gave us it will automatically show up on the blog?

P.S. Only one question: where do we have any informations about The Cause. I mean, beside Jamie's video? Have I let out something important?

I sort of agree with the calls on the logo. My real problem lies in the slogan. Surely we can get something more original than "Save Our Oceans...Save Our Planet"? And the font looks a little...flowery. Not entirely saying activist. Still, good job.

Thanks for the feedback, btw, it's actually what I've been waiting all day for. Redesigning...
Oh, and I came up with the slogan in two seconds...I was planning on it being temporary (a placeholder).

Kinda pointless to think of codenames when the effect page links directly here to uF. i think that link should go down. then i will officially be adapting Zaratan as my codename . (zaratan is the devil whale)
Oh and i'm going to take a crack at a logo/banner myself just for fun, will post later

And I think this is a great idea and maybe something that they would incorporate like when Nighthawk impacted the other game by emailing a threat to Triton.
Or maybe they were waiting for the cause to be founded and set up.

I think the chaos star is a good symbol, however, pick out a different designed one from Google image search of said star. Just my opinion.
