I prefer to think of it as a well known fact that very few people know Pete.....:ss

It was the best I could come up with without commenting on the "maze". :tu

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

duh... i think a decent tattoo artist will come out with far better design from both of these...

i know i know.. a good cigar no need a great design band...but why not?

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

It's ugly. I like the old one.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

First is too busy and convoluted, the second looks way too Japanese.

Maybe with extra stuff thrown in on the band it won't look too bad. By themselves both of these logos are crap.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Havana Cellars is just the name of his umbrella company. All of our invoices at work come from Havana Cellars.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Here's my opinion, all (except the Drac, Boris, Frank, Werewolf blah blah blah) of his cigar boxes are plain and basic at best, all of his bands look like crap and yet his cigars sell for alot of money. Proof that with enough hype you can sell a decent cigar with a brown paper bag ring in a $1 box from Hobby Lobby for $10 plus a stick all day long. If it floats your boat cool, but it's not for me.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Looks like the "artist formerly known as tatuaje"...

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Reminds me of this:

Something simple that says "Tatuaje" and "Jhonson" at the same time. :D

I can hardly see the letters in that tribal mess.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

****ing hilarious

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Not a fan, but then again I wasn't a fan of the previous bands. I like his smokes and will continue to buy them, even with a tramp stamp wrapped around it.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Hilarious, my friend. Hilarious.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

This is too much like the other designs, I can't find the J in that anywhere! :D

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

I think we should use that for an avatar for CA trolls. :D

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

least it'll distract from the boring cigar:r

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Reminds me of what was clogging my shower drain....

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Looks like crap.

Freaking Epic.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Thanks Darrell, I didn't know that. I'd never seen the name before. I thought he was making wine now or something.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

man, there's so much negative feedback here, I'm starting to feel bad for ole' PJ. It seems the best thing people can say is "it's the cigar that matters, not the band" and I agree with that.

...and despite our opinions, I'm sure some of us will probably go out and buy a few Tats in the future just to see what the new bands look like.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Seems Pete just gets this.

It's the American way isn't it? Build up a budding young star, then when they 'make it' tear them down and stomp on 'em. :|

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Meh, not the greatest looking design, but that won't stop me from buying Cabaiguans. Plus, you can always just remove the band.;)

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Pete will be alright if he figures out theres only room for one "rockstar"
in the cigar industry. We already have Rocky.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

I guess I would not consider Rocky Patel a "rockstar" kind of person. He just seems like the ultimate salesman. As for Pete, I would throw him into a person that has a "persona" about him, something many people would like. Is that persona considered a "rockstar"? Probably something along those lines.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

nice try Pete Johnson. didn't know you were a member here, love your smokes!

:r

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

From now on you'll need to poopp@l me all your money for smokes. Just send me tons of cash and I'll send a note to your B&M to give you stuff. Really, I'm sure it'll work out great! :banger:r

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

I want to thank everyone for all the feedback. Just an FYI, the above posts are not from me nor anyone from my company.

Yes the logo, I actually paid a veteran designer for Disney to do the logo. The logo is not for Tatuaje. Tatuaje already has two logos. The classic Tatuaje logo with the tobacco leaf/fleur design found on the cabinet boxes and the Tatuaje with the sideways fleurs on each side. Those are the logos and they will alway be. The logo you are seeing is just a company umbrella logo. All the brands will fall under this logo. You will see it somewhere on the packaging for all the brands to let people know we make that product.

I had always just used the Fleur as a company symbol but it's not like that fleur was anything unique. Every company uses a fleur and the one I used was simple enough to where everyone got used to it and associated my brands with it but a fleur is not unique.

Again this is just a company umbrella logo that will tie all the brands together. I am always willing to look at submissions but I am not looking to a logo for Tatuaje. It already has two.

Also, I am far from being any type of rockstar. I'm just happy to be doing something I love.

Thanks again for the honest feedback, I do give a damn what you guys think and hope to hear more from you. Hopefully better next time.

Regards,
Pete

I got to learn to not take a draw until I read the post.....coughed my a## off

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Does that mean you don't have to change the old brown bands?
Sweet.:tu

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Man, I want to bite into this like an 18 ounce New York Strip steak.

I will digress and keep my aggression to a minimum.

The "what I would say to Pete Johnson and the owner of New Havana Cigars (local to me)" if I ever had their attention ....after the drac incident.

You want honest feedback?

I'll give it to you if you really want it. Man to Man. Not in public.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

....this coming from the cigar smoker known as Two-Face. :r

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

s15driftking, I would love the honest feedback. Obviously you had a problem with the release or trying to get some from NHC. Sorry to hear that. I'll be in Columbus soon and would love to hear what you have to say.

Regards,
Pete

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

The ball is in your court now Bobby!

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

I believe that PM is most suitable. Warning, its very lengthy, very.


EDIT - Maximum PM is 5000 characters... my letter is 6323 characters. What is the best way to communicate?

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

And I am a man of action. I myself always take feedback and criticism as an opportunity to re-evaluate whatever situation is at hand.

I typed out what I'd like to say in MS word, but it won't fit in a PM.

Seeking alternate route.

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

Break it up into two pm's part 1 and part 2

Re: New Tatuaje symbol
 

I thought Pete was offering to meet you in-person when he was in Columbus.

Just me, but I know I would prefer to talk with him face-to-face if the opportunity presented itself.

Sorry if you got the impression that I was "butting" into your business, that was not my intent Bobby.
