We don't have to depict any real person. Just an unidentifiable man in each garment,The men's heads can be turned in a way to not show any indentifiable characteristics in either skirt or kilt wearer. I am leaning towards Carl's suggestion of flipping the "men in kilts and skirts" to "men in skirts and kilts" as the logo suggests by name alone. After all, the new name is not "KiltCafe", it's "SkirtCafe". There seem to be plenty of Kilt oriented meeting places online already and only one skirt cafe. It's true our mentor in Heaven wore mostly kilts and when he started this site most of the members wore mostly kilts but that's changed a lot and I think most of the current members wear both with a leaning towards more skirts than kilts. Just a thought. :shake:

Actually, with over 90% approval for the currently proposed logo, I've been asked to send it along as the chosen version.

great! as for me, I was only kidding anyway about the starbucks stuff. I know there is a time and a place for humour--and here is not always it--but I did think the idea of getting characters with recognisable emotions on their faces with detailed clothing and faces and people hiding behind potted palms on a piece of jpeg about 1.5 cm square was funny as well. good effort, you comedians!
ok, enough with the jokes--that's the logo.. well done sir!

A little echo of the past but a brightened theme for the new days ahead.
(I've changed the background gradient so that the words are easier to read. It's now a coffee-colored gradient. If you're not seeing it correctly, clear the cache on your web browser and reload this page.)
I love it. No changes to suggest.

The new logo looks good up there, it feels more like home to have something to greet visitors with. Thanks again, Dan!
