Hi I sent this message to Danie 2 days ago and thought I'd post a copy here. "Hi Danie Today by chance I found Kiril's question on facebook, and I think that the main members(you,me,Ronnie,Hercules,Mike) should keep an eye out for this kind of thing. The link doesn't want to work but it is on Lada Niva Power's group. There might be people who need us and we should try and be proactive in helping them. Within 20 min of me telling Kiril about locsa he joined. Ari" Ari

Hi Danie
I think your advert on Junk Mail is an excellent idea. ;D Now people looking to buy a Lada know how to join the Forum. This perhaps will give them more confidence.
Regards
Ronnie

Hi Ari / Ronnie I am glad to see the ad is still there..... ..... hopefully they will allow a lot more in future. Unfortunately the ad just gets rejected when one try to submit a direct link. Ari, thanks for the idea - I am sure your initiative could make a huge difference in mobilizing the South African Lada community........ If anyone do have any other ideas of how to promote this website amongst the South African Lada community, please feel free to express your views under this post. Regards Danie

Hi
How would it work if we had stickers made that incorporated LOCSA and stick them on our lada's and others with ladas will see us driving and then see the LOCSA sticker and know that LOCSA exists

Ari that is a very good idea.
I have some graphic design experience - but perhaps we should all give some input as to what the logo should look like.
Just a thought

Hi Ari / Marius
I have also thought about this idea, and it would be wonderful if Marius could assist us in putting a sticker together.
I am not sure whether the name "Locsa" should be incorporated on a sticker though. Kobus once mentioned something about a website name change in future..........on the other hand, I think Locsa is a well known name within the South African Lada owners community..........If possible, I think we should stick to the name "Locsa", and add the link to this website on a sticker.
Perhaps we could also think about something like "Lada Niva 4 x 4 club ", "Lada Niva Owners Club" etc. Problem though - these two names seems to be too long for a sticker, which should include a link to the Website as well.
Having said all this, I believe all of us should get involved in making a final decision in this regard. I certainly do not want to force my own viewpoint on anybody.
Please feel free to air your views in this regard.
Regards
Danie

Hi Danie Perhaps we should vote on it - but I believe that LOCSA is perfect as it is. I will be very happy to help - but just like you I think this should be a team effort. PS Ari - I think we're all on the same page Regards Marius

Hi All I just thought the pic on the Locsa Website (Home Page) is a bit dated...........I mean, the date on the pic (8/5/2005) is very dated: locsa.atspace.com/Any support for changing the dated pic with our new LOCSA Logo??? Regards Danie

Do you just want to modify the page or create a whole new web page?

Hi Marius I don't think a new website will be a good idea - I just thought the new Logo would look really nice on the Home Page . Regards Danie

Hi All I have asked Kobus to replace the current (dated) pic at the Home Page with the new Locsa Logo - so just watch this page for some change in the near future: locsa.atspace.com/Regards Danie

Hi Danie Just a thought How about replacing the banner on top with a new one using the new logo? Replacing the dated pic with a new one (suggesting Ronnie's or any other nice looking Niva) I am willing to come up with a banner - I just need the dimensions. Regards Marius

Hi Marius / Hercules
I will send Kobus an e.mail in this regard - he seems to be very busy at the moment, so I don't think he will mind to hang on a bit.
Any suggested pics can be forwarded to this Topic.
Regards
Danie

Hi Marius and all Is it not possible to have the photo done in such a way to make it possible to change it easily, so all can have an opportunity to have their Lada shown. . Regards Ronnie
