This so isn't serious, but, Bob Marley and I were thinking about:

"We're joomling, joomling
--and we hope you like Joomla too!"

:D  Sorry... bad - I know!  Those lyrics are gonna be stuck in my head for days!

Cheers, Adam. (dStorm)

I've noticed similar suggestions from windowsguy and starise, but how about this one:

Joomla!
Content Management for Open Minds.

Wow, I made several slogans for joomla, but your slogan is better than mine; it's a very good one! Inside there is the community (mind) and the free open-source (open), moreover open minds is quite similar to "intelligent choise" like a subliminal message, and so on...

Even for a short slogan we can say:

Joomla! for open minds

or as a bit a joke and a bit serious:

Joomla! open minds only    (in this case open states as a verb or an adjective - sorry for my elementary grammar)

The Open Mind idea is  very appealing.

Nice one, dStorm.. just wonder how many more before something happens.. maybe the new logo will make it easier to settle on something, should be announced soon..

I like the "Open Source, Open Mind" part, not sure about the "Open Horizon" part.

I could be be way off, but I think that the logo and the slogan should sort of go hand-in-hand.  For instance, if the JBird logo  wins, maybe use something about the sky, like "Joomla! The Skies the limit" or something.  I'm not a slogan-ist, so i dunno, just thought i'd throw that out there.

I think that Open Minds is more flexible than we can imagine... even for a JBird logo as the word open is... for taking off towards the sky  :-\  like a JBird... but with a mind behind...

hey folks, it's hard to say that  ;D  and we don't know the winner logo yet!  :o

This gets really:

boring, drawn-out, dull, going slowly, humdrum, lengthy, long, monotonous, overlong, prolonged, protracted, tedious, wearisome

"The brain is hungry not for method but for content, especially content which contains generalizations that are powerful, precise, and explicit"  Frederick Turner.

Think from marketing & PR-point of view what you can achieve with the logo combined with the YES!........we all use it in our daily life

* You have achieved something.....what do you say??..... YES!
* You do something good.... what do you mumble........YES
* You get it done .........what do you shout?......YES
* You club is the winnner........ what's the joy? YES
* What's the best CMS?    JOOMLA! YES!Powerful,Precise,Explicit

leo

note: Whatever the choice....stay as powerful as we have started this Baby, with good advise and explicit good marketing & PR.. Don't please imitiate anything Nike-like so do not use the "it!" and also do not use "simplicity" Mambo is NOT about simplicity...it is about power in management of complex content........(besides that it is not  simple any more...:)

I second that, it is genius j=cm²

Just in case you’re not a genius it means 'Joomla equals Content Management Squared' which is good :)

Sorry if that is a bit patronising but if you had to read it we wont tell anyone.
