Dominic working on a new CanNACHI logo.

That would be up to the powers in charge. I just used what I was told to use. The idea here is that CanNACHI is Canadian NACHI. Similar to how CalNACHI is California NACHI.

I don't know Marcel, that could be staged. They can do amazing things with photo editors these days

Beautiful pics! I actually lived in the mountains here for 10 years. Believe it or not Southern California has lots of mountains with 4,000 to 6,000 foot peaks. I did my time shoveling the car out of the snow in the morning to get to school (which was 45 minutes away!). The weather rarely dropped under 15F, so no ice storms like you guys get, but still beautiful... and cold.

No photo shop here Dominic, this was real and photos taken by relatives.
Have it on disc here somewhere, but used the same photos off the internet.

That makes sense. The different abbreviations just came to mind so I thought I would mention them but I understand the logic behind using CanNACHI.

[Marcel R. Cyr]

Would it be possible that this could be construed as Canning Nachi?

Just a thought.

It might be prudent to come up with a more loggical abbreviation.

In this case maybe Nachi/Canada

One suggestion though:

For the Canadian Association of Certified Home Inspectors, would it not make more sense for the abbreviation on the banner to be either CanACHI or CACHI?

CACHI....thats pretty catchy...ha ha. It was funny at first.

Nice job on the logo though. When's the decals arriving for our trucks?

That was my point of post 2. Unfortunately, someone apparently thought I wanted to get rid of NACHI.

It suggests a home base in Canada. Much more appealing for Canadian clients than InterNachi, IMO. Smart move.

Some day...Some one, some where will design a logo that will incorporate an individuals business and the association together. Only makes sense to me. Why would anyone want to advertise an association and not their own business.

Incorporate the two and kill two birds with one stone and design a logo that a NACHI member can easily incorporate their business also.

For example: 360 Degree Home Inspections - NACHI Compliant.

I advertise both.
