It's funny, because earlier in the day that the OP posted I was wondering if a small bird was a particularly good choice for a Zoo forum logo. What is it btw? A red capped robin?
I think it's a (Crimson?) chat - i.e. 'the Zoo-Chat'.![]()

I also found this website quite some time ago (when the Crimson Chat was the mascot) and only about two years ago decided to create an account.I just came to the realization that I must of "discovered" this website a lot sooner than I thought. After seeing that bird I recalled seeing that exact same logo years ago when I just started really using the computer. I remember thinking this website "looked interesting" but I forgot what it was called and eventually forgot about it.
When did you change the logo?Only just noticed this thread!
Yes, the bird I used as the logo for ZooChat was indeed a Crimson Chat
... it became known as the "ZooChat Chat".
In fact, the photo I used was taken at Taronga Zoo, so not only is it a ZooChat Chat ...
... it is actually a "ZooChat Zoo Chat"

When did you change the logo?
When the site was migrated from vBulletin to XenForo forum software and I redesigned the site
When you re-re-design the site can we please have the logo with the bird back?
@Simon Hampel You have been mentioning the next version of ZooChat (v4?) for some time now, when are we getting it?When the site was migrated from vBulletin to XenForo forum software and I redesigned the site

Maybe you could consider to rename the site "ZooBeat". I think it's worth thinking about itWhen it's ready![]()
Are you being sarcastic here? I really think "ZooChat" is the better title.Maybe you could consider to rename the site "ZooBeat". I think it's worth thinking about it![]()

Back in the bad old days (i.e. before I was a member) the site was called ZooBeat.![]()
I know that, I was asking if they were sarcastic about wanting it back. I think ZooChat is the better name because ZooBeat sounds like a forum for animal abusers!Back in the bad old days (i.e. before I was a member) the site was called ZooBeat.![]()
