New "trend" In Nigerian-based Website Layouts
« on: September 11, 2009, 08:52 PM »

As some of you may know, I am very much into random googling of websites.  I do this to see what the competition is doing (and not doing) and to see what I can incorporate into my future web jobs.

Recently, quite a few nigerian-based websites have started displaying the "rebrand nigeria, good people, great nation (or whatever it is)" logo on their sites.  In fact, coming to think of it, it reminds me of the "proudly Nigeiran" logos I used to see back in the day. 

Is there some kind of law out there that requires nigerian-based websites to have the rebrand logo? or is this something one person started and now others, in the spirit of the animal pack syndrome have decided to copy?  If you happened to see this logo on a website, would it make a difference to you?

Let's discuss.

To be honest, it will take more that a "Green-white-Green" logo to get me to put my faith in a Nigerian site. At the moment, our works need to outshine the faith we put in this rebranding project thing because it all seems to be "talk, talk, talk". Only "more action" i.e Nigerians promising, and delivering can buy my trust in Nigerians websites - as with every other website/business.

PAcK SYNDROME IS NOT A BAD THING. THE FACT THAT YOU ARE ON THIS board means you obey the laws of the HERD. DONT MAKE IT SOUND AS THOUGH ITS BAD. Somebody invented CSS right? and we are all copying right? Undecided

I didn't say that  Tongue

Read my post again.  My questions:
Quote
- Is there some kind of law out there that requires nigerian-based websites to have the rebrand logo?
- is this something one person started and now others, in the spirit of the animal pack syndrome have decided to copy?
- If you happened to see this logo on a website, would it make a difference to you?

I am probably more interested in answers to the 3rd question.  The first is more of sarcasm.

so, stop typing in all caps and join in on the discussion  Wink

No matter how proud i am about Nigeria, i can't consider having those logos on my works. Never dreaming about it, not all.
