My friend Elissa designed 3 logos for my business card.

Please, help me choose which one to use. Any suggestion is welcomed.

Thanks.

Black or green.

For me Red has too many disturbing connotations when linking it with the continent (shape) of Africa.

How about a marcus garvey mix of all three? In stripes... that'd be cool.

Otherwise its gotta be green, although it looks like a save our trees program.... in that case its black.

Definatly black.

I think the three combined will produce something that looks like brown.

Anyway, I will consider that too.

Thats it, The Goddess got it... It represents a nationalism. Either that or just black prehaps with gold letters.

Do we get a discount for being so helpful? Could do with some beauty products...

Any Black Chat member can get a discount. You can either request a special PayPal invoice or include your Black Chat username during your order so I can include extra stuff.

Since this is a public site, I will have to confirm the person's username on Black Chat.

Thanks to all of you.

BlackBeauty,

Yes, I am aware of the numbers. I have shippment of 40,000 shea butter.

As long as they buy something, I am fine.

Infact, I am willing to give out 8 oz of free shea butter to anyone that links to my site as long as they pay $4.50 USPS flat rate shipping in the U.S. International members should contact me personal for shipping cost.

I pay over $400 a month on yahoo and ebay fees to promote so this will help me in the long run.

Linking information:

Title: Shea Butter and black soap

Thanks.

Please, vote on your favourite colour.

I will choose whichever carries the majority this Saturday.

2 things:

-I voted for the green. The red reminds me of the hyped-up turmoil in Africa, and the black seems too typical and reactionary.

-I ordered some Dudu Osun (the only soap I use) from your website the other day, and if you are up to constructive criticism then listen to me when I say that the site needs work. It doesn't navigate very well, and does not intuitively convey information about your products. I usually order it by the case, so it has been well over a year since I purchased from okaforworld.com (I think).

Anyhow, there's my 2 cents...

I am not good at websites but I just try my best until I can hire someone that does that well. Are you talking about http://www.theafricanstore.org of http://www.okaforworld.com?

OKAFORWORLD was my first site. It looks like that because I did all the work with no help from web building softwares, most of which doesn't help with search engine ranking.

Anyway, thanks for everything.

I voted Green. Actually I prefer the Black but your objective as a businessman is to make money therefore it's a good idea to minimize aggressive interpretations.

Plus I have to minimize competition with my alternate avatar.

==============================

When I originally ordered a case of Dudu Osun from you a long time ago, it was from okaforworld.com. Th last time I went back there (last week), and it directed me to theafricanstore.org.

First impression and ease of use typically determines if people will give you their money. Both times, I spent my money there because I want to support other Africans (first and foremost), Dudu Osun is the only soap that actually makes my skin feel clean (without moisturizers, film, etc.) so I keep a regular supply of it, and you probably have one of the best prices I can get it at. I have other African soaps, but when I want to be clean, Dudu Osun is the first pick.

I finally chose the green one for production.

I did a little mistkake trying to edit the logo to fit the business card design but I only printed 10,000 for now to give out.

By the time I go to The Black Expo, I will modify it and print enough to make an impact.

Thanks for your contributions.
