Interesting idea ... I'd love to contribute to that

I'm a Sales & Marketing Manager, so these kind of things are sort of my every days work.
In my opinion there's nothing wrong with the characters in the logo (good/clear/strong), but if I had to say something about it, it would be that we loose the yellow in the logo. Blue and yellow have kind of a 'cheap' feel to it.
Example:In The Netherlands we have this very cheap super market called
LIDL. Their logo is yellow, blue and red and looks very cheap. That's what they want to be and their housebrand shows that. Obviously they've given it thought

If you compare them to one of the most
expensive supermarktes in the country you'll hopefully see what I mean ... Their logo is blue & white and they use orange to emphasize ... pretty clever as orange appeals to a lot of Dutch people (orange is the typical Dutch (soccer) color; the familyname of our Royals is 'Van Oranje')
Blue and white are good strong colors and give more of a trustworthy & corporate feel. They would align more (better) with the SimV website. Also I think that the background of the logo could use a little more (FSX) flair ...
Maybe we could do a logo design contest along the lines of the screenshot contest.
But overall I think it's a neat idea Jake! I think that one should always think of ways to make [insert subject] better. Progression is good and we need our members to contribute to that.
Let's give it a thought. I believe that Pete would be open to these kinds of things.
