Forum name and logo?

Post by Perturbee »

I've always liked the theme Simplicity as well as its name. I never figured the forum would last longer than a few months, expecting that the official forum would come back. It didn't and I forgot all about naming and making a logo. The forum is here to stay and at least until October 2017 (that's when the current hosting needs renewing).

That's where you come in. USFPF isn't that great. (Standing for: Unofficial Sims FreePlay Forum).
SimPlicity is kind of funny, because we all try to help and make things simpler or understandable.

I can create a poll for this once we have some ideas. Once picked a name I need a kind volunteer to make the logos, because I'm utterly bad at graphical editing.

Thoughts? Ideas? Suggestions?

Me Three! But I also like Unofficial Sims FreePlay Forum, because it lets people know right away what the site is all about...Everyone here is so creative that I am looking forward to the names that members will come up with...:D

P.S. I'm so glad that this site is still around - everyone is so helpful and nice!

I'm not good at all in creating names and logos. If I log in via my computer, I like the tiny green diamond, which is displayed next to the forums name in the list of bookmarks:)

I don't see the word "Simplicity" while I'm logged in. I have changed the boardstyle, because -to me- the style "subsilver" is easier to handle.

Like Erin I use, and always has used, the Subsilver2 boardstile. I absolutely love the aditional options that comes with it, and find it easier to handle.
Thats why I also don't see the word Simplicity anywhere.
I do like the name Unofficial Sims Freeplay Forum, because it in the same time explains to everyone what the forum is all about.

I love SimPlicity!

Is there a way to edit or change my username within my account?

You can not change it yourself, I need to make changes manually in the database.

I use subsilver2 as well. I had to go look at Simplicity to remember what it looked like. I think you should do whatever you want to do. I personally like the "Unofficial Forum" because it dissociates with the Firemonkeys but says it's a forum about Sims Free play. It's well known under this name. A kewl new logo might be nice --I have zero skills in this area but the name has recognition and changing it now... I dunno. However I support any decision you may make. It's your show. I'm just grateful the forum exists. Without you and this forum I would have abandoned SFP long, long ago and I would have missed out on some great friendships. Thanks for being here all this time and I'll always come back under whatever name.

Not naming it specifically and keeping the Unofficial SFP forum resulted in the new logos, which took me several hours to make.
