My Two Sense.....get ride of the ships wheel and harpoon, bring back the stick (post #577) Nice work Remy. Of course I would like to see the word 'Great' inserted. Old School kid.
besides I still like this one better 
I can call already on a grumpy bunch of killjoys at Oswego shooting down the design because:
A) The mascot must not be gender specific - you must either create a female alternate or alter the current logo to be non-sex related,
B) The mascot must not be race specific - the fisherman needs to be of a complexion that all races (skin colors, whatever) can fit into,
C) The mascot can't look PO'ed - there must be a certifiable "cheerful expression" that the mascot looks like it could turn to, in order to seem less aggressive and more fan-friendly.

We ran into the exact same roadblocks last time a meeting was held in the CC about 3 semesters removed. The gentleman who restarted the idea had a plethora of great options drawn up and presentation-ready, and the pains from SA (nothing personal to those on here individually who had served on it) were only too happy to counter every enthusiasm with stupid protocol after ridiculous reason. I'm almost happy that we don't have a mascot yet, because it would be something so weak, pathetic, and uninspiringly neutral that one would be ashamed of being affiliated with it.

.A gentleman in 19th century garb. As an admiral in the navy; complete with a long heavy hunter green coat, gold epaulets with long fringes, white waistcoat and trousers, and knee high black boots. Toss in an officer's sword and scabbard to make it a tad more realistic. Completing the uniform, a commanding bicorn hat - also hunter green, with a gold stripe down the side, and the helm logo sewn into place on both sides.
Beyond this mascot look, an alternate logo could show the admiral grasping the helm and squinting ahead while dark "thundersnow" rages behind him, with lightning and snow flying. The tattered "L" flag could be shown flying from a nearby mast.
It would be a fitting tribute to the long warring history of Lake Ontario (and weather conditions), a new look for the interpretation of a "Laker", and it might even fly for the P.C. police if the dude is clean shaven
And it could be quite bad arse
I've always been a fan of images rather than descriptions. No photoshop skills with all that video editing/making?
Hence WTOP > WNYO.
