There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Logo?

I've been working on a logo for a long time. I was saving this for Cowtown to surprise everyone but Verb kinda forced my hand on this one (ha ha). I didn't want to put a Spyder on the logo because we have no idea what they will look like in the future. I wanted something that said Ohio Spyder and also be simple and 3 colors. So here it is.

Eric,
Certainly not my intention, sorry about that! I like your concept, but don't know how to go about getting corporate blessing for (non-commercial) use of their logo. I've seen it done in a lot of other brands' enthusiast sites, so it may be as simple as contacting the folks who interviewed you and getting some guidance. It'd be cool to have the BRP spyder on the logo, and I would hope they'd encourage the enthusiasts where possible.
While I agree that BRP may change the looks of the Spyder in the future, having what may be 'classic' Spyders on the logo might tend to show we were there from the beginning, sort of like the Wright Flyer on our license plates. Just a thought, and absent any other logo, I'll certainly have a flag patch or something to show my Buckeye pride. While I'm not a native, I got here as soon as I could...
:yes:

I know when I was running the Valkyrie club we had a meeting with Honda and they basically told us they owned everything related to the Valkyrie including the font that was used. At that time they had just shut down the Honda Shadow Riders club for using the wrong font.nojoke

Just my opinion- The red Y Factor could be lost , but the Spider/ BRP logo fusion over a webbed Ohio you came up with is in a word ....Inspired:congrats:.

Ah yes...but a wise man once said it's always better to ask for forgiveness than permission.
Yup, the spider web is awesome. :2thumbs:

These are older posts and I'm wondering if patches ever got made or if the idea was dropped. I like them both and there is a local shop in the Dayton area that can do one off embroidery. Not sure what she charges etc but I'd sure like to have a nice size patch for the back of my jacket and/or vest.
