Barry suggested some changes to the name & logo if possible as it is closely resembles the logo on the GT which was done by Lumintop ( a different factory than the Q8 and lantern projects.
I think we should see if the guy who made the logo (can’t recall his username) could make some revisions. I liked it most out of all the names that have been pitched.
If Barry and Sofirn want to be sensitive to another manufacturer, I think that’s okay. We don’t want to stir up trouble for no reason. Lumintop made the GT, so their brand is associated with it. Sometimes it’s better to back off a little and compromise rather than hurt your relationship. We do want these manufacturers to continue working with us, after all.
But, I think a reminder isn’t too out of place here. The BLF GT is “ours” not Lumintop’s. It was a BLF design before we even had a manufacturer on board to make it. The name and logo therefore are “ours” as well. It was designed here along with several others, and there was a poll to choose which one would go on the light. So, we’re really not outside of our rights using it if that is what people decide they want to go with. I guess the real consideration would be whether the BLF GT Team, or “Team Giggles” as they’ve called themselves, would be okay with this project using a similar logo.
