Slogan for Widespread Use

G GP Public Seen by 16

I think this discussion will be fun.

Over the years, we've been constantly looking for a good slogan to put, well, everywhere. Since slogans are fun to put everywhere.

However, what we've only found so far is generic. 'The biggest resource of Nintendo papercraft!' is the most common. Yet, we all agree that Nintendo Papercraft simply isn't just that, don't we?

Papercraft, Nintendo, community, fun, paper, resource... we have a huge bank of words available. Let's just be creative and find new ideas!

However, I don't want us to stay in front of our computers on this page and try to 'focus' and 'concentrate' so the slogan magically appears. No.

Here's an article with some interesting tips : http://www.inc.com/guides/201101/new-rules-of-writing-a-memorable-slogan.html

Although, don't take that too seriously. We won't find our slogan by searching on Google... or in the dictionary (but wordplay is far from being a bad thing!). We usually find ideas when we get distracted. Maybe will we find the next Nintendo Papercraft slogan on the toilet. At school. In bed. In the bath. Under the shower. Whatever, but together I think we can find very good ideas.

(I'm not perfect in my English, so it's still pretty hard for me to make a wordplay)

Once we find a slogan that pleases, we'll get voting!

So, let's go! and most importantly: enjoy! :)

Or it could be like the Super Nintendo remake of the slogan: 'Now you're playing with power. Paper power.'

For older Nintendo fans it will surely mean quite a lot to them. For younger ones, 'Now you're playing with paper' still makes a lot of sense.

I don't like it. I didn't even know it was a reference until you mentioned it and without the reference, it just sounds cheesy.

I love it, but I do agree that the younger crafters wouldn't get it

I don't like it. Firstly, I should say that I'm not trying to proliferate my personal catchphrase. However, I think that the current slogan is too old a reference for our target demographic. If anything, it makes me think 'Portal'. We can do better.

Feel free to suggest new ideas if you have it!

We could play on the word 'crafty'

For those who were worried of some kind of treachery, don't worry: I completely removed the interim slogan banner from the blog's home page. We're going to wait until we agree on another one before reenabling it (with the new tagline of course).
