*******UPDATE*******I sent the two mock-ups below (that Sun created) to Mr. Habashi last week and this is the response I received this morning: Hello Jane,
Sorry for my delayed response.
I must say the designs looks great!
I’m quite sure that the first design can be approved but I will need confirmation on whether the image is okay as it is.
I doubt that the second design will be approved due to the layout of the text, as far as I am aware text will be limited to two lines.
Once I have approval on the design I will get back to you.
In the meantime keep up the good work and our regards to Andrea, Christina, Gabi, Jane, Martina, Regine, Richina, Peacock and suncatcher.
King regards,
Mohamad Habashi Assistant to the Executive Administrator I think that is great news, knowing we don't have to start from scratch. I know some people wanted individual names on the tile, but it doesn't seem like that is a possibility unless we can get them all on two lines. I will happily go along with the majority, but I really like the image Sun used on these, and I am fine going with the Majicat name. What does everyone else think?

That's great news Jane! :-) I prefer not having ".com" on the tile....I think MAJICAT speaks for itself when coupled with the image. Getting closer, thanks for all your hard work!

Thank you, Jane! One step forward - we'll see, if it gets approved. I'm fine with "Friends of MAJICAT" Do you know, what we'll be doing in 4 weeks?

ah...so neither have been approved as of yet from them . We might want to ask, how many characters (letters ) are "in a line" for Mohammed said He doubted the way it was made but didnt say for sure as to how many characters,and have an alternate image which perhaps is the dove ? I'm not sure either if Cats image will be approved .. once we know : 1. the size of the font to be used in the line 2. how many characters in a line 3. alternate image just in case then we can really finalize it all I believe.. xoox Love and Peace to you all xoxox
I personally would like our initials if we cannot fit the characters as we will find out how many are allowed in each line . ex. CC JB SC GM so forth to complete characters prob 21 to each line Friends of Majicat
if not we will have more than characters than Friends of Majicat so we might want to think of something more .. ~ Peace ~ ~ Friends of Majicat~

As far as "Cat's" image being approved...it looks like Mr. Habashi simply had to check with his collegue for an okay. And since Mr. Habashi is the assistant to the Executive Admin., all we have to know is "who is the Exec. Admin.??" Could it be Yusie, or Majid, or some other "friend of Majicat"?? Hmmm, that would be nice! :-)

Well done Jane :-) But Im missing :-( Don't worry, Meg. You're not really missing! That was just one of the first mock-ups we did in order to have something to run by Mr. Habashi, and I didn't have the complete list of names at that time. We'd never forget you! You were on the last mock-up with the dove : Peace, ~Sun~

Thank you for sharing this exciting news, Jane. I'll start setting up the questions we need to vote on to make final decisions. Will take me a little while.
Peace, ~Sun~

Here's a first attempt at voting. It's a bit of an experiment, so I hope it works out. Since we're allowed one logo and two lines of text, I think it's best to vote for these two things separately: 1. The logo 2. The two lines of text------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1. The logoAs I said I would in previous posts, I've made mock-ups with all the suggestions we've received for logos. We need to vote until we choose one final one. The last two are in color, but if one of them were chosen, it would have to be redrawn as a line drawing so it could be engraved. Although someone suggested the Firecat alone, I put Teaser and the Firecat together because I think they're more recognizable that way. 1.2.3.4.5.6.

2. The two lines of text----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. FRIENDS OF MAJICAT 2. FRIENDS OF MAJICAT.COM 3. FRIENDS OF MAJICAT Established 1999 4. FRIENDS OF MAJICAT.COM Established 1999 5. FRIENDS OF MAJICAT Cat Stevens Scrapbook 6. FRIENDS OF MAJICAT.COM Cat Stevens Scrapbook Please Note: I don't know anyone's initials, so to try Christina's suggestion of using our initials, I just plugged in ABC's. If the majority choose to use initials, then the ABC's would be replaced with our correct initials. 7. FRIENDS OF MAJICAT AB CD EF GH IJ KL MN OP QR ST UV 8. FRIENDS OF MAJICAT.COM AB CD EF GH IJ KL MN OP QR ST UV

I chose that text because the "tile" will be there long after we're gone and also because it gives provenance (source of origin/history) to MAJICAT I'm into antiques and provenance is important to authenticity.

~friends of Majicat~ jb sc gn rl mv tl cc nd lv Kc (heads up: they vestablished usually to est. ) xo Thank you, Christina. I had the same thought, but I was trying to follow the suggestions as closely as possible: What about "FRIENDS OF MAJICAT". established 1999 If the text with "Established 1999" is finally chosen, we can shorten it if most of us would like to.
