I don't feel we should be advertising, nor catering to, a particular brand of accessories, in this case the Stinky brand ashtray. I feel it might be misinterpreted as setting a tone of what we might expect or favor that people should use for accessories, much like featuring cigar bands would set a tone of CC or NC and a even a particular brand. I would much rather see a simple generic ashtray of some sort.

Above my pay grade, I'll let you folks decide, wasn't trying to rep a brand just needed a 4 cigar holder ashtray

"We" was meant as CA, not you specifically. Stinky brand ashtrays are rather unmistakable in their profile / image. I think the image can still remain true to your idea with a change to a generic 4-finger ashtray.

As I sip on my Coke Zero, I ponder what you're saying. You make a good point, just like this refreshing Coke Zero makes my thirst go away. It's the TOE's call, but IMO just using a generic ashtray could be just as good. Not as good as drinking a Coke Zero, but still good.

If it was a "Stinky" brand ashtray 2 of the 4 leaves would be broken off.

That being said I tend to agree that just a regular ashtray would work just as well in the design.
