Hi Brigid,
Thanks for your input. I think what I'm looking for in a logo is
something that is more recognizable at a glance that shows a "classic"
Fjord. I agree our logo is nice when the image is large enough to see
it's detail but with it's many uses the size is often so small the
picture gets lost and there is no "brand recognition" (Do you have one
of the NFHR pins?). A logo is something that catches the eye and
conveys a message almost subliminally, not artwork.
I too don't want an "Arab" headed, pretty, cartoon Fjord as the image
and I don't believe we are being subject to the whims of fashion. If
you get a chance to see how we all dress on the BOD you'll be comforted
in that fact!

** I personally love the logo, and think it should stay. If you've been to an
expo lately, you'll see that every breed is now touted as "versatile" and
shown doing everything from jumping to reining. If we want our breed to stand
out, we need to show what it is best known for, and that is work ethic. At its
heart the Fjord is a brukshest, a useful horse, not a pretty creature subject to
the whims of fashion.
