After several weeks of discussion between myself, our artist Yisin and Pelf and many changes to earlier versions, we have finally decided on the logo for our Turtle Conservation Centre.  The final version was selected after Yisin and I sat together in my place yesterday afternoon to work on it. And…here it is!  The turtle depicts a river terrapin resting its front leg on the word “conservation” – a gentle reminder that turtles need help from us humans and we must  not fail them!

A picture of Yisin who designed the logo,  is posted here as well. She has been a dear help since our days at Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT) when she designed and did the artwork for the latest Turtle Research and Rehabilitation Group (TRRG) volunteer T-shirt.  Note that the new project leader has reverted to the name “SEATRU” for the TRRG.

Yisin will be doing the artwork for a children’s story on turtles written by me. We hope to get it out in print soon!

Postscript – added on 24th September 2009

We have since modified our logo by shading the shell.  It now looks like this:
