I personally don't have a color preference, but I would like to comment that having a Temple (TOTJO) shield is really an ideal symbol. A shield is usually considered a defensive device, which is fitting of the Jedi role. Good project.

Wow, I love it! :)

You know...I would actually pick red and black.

I can just imagine everyone shouting: "But...THEY'RE THE SITH COLOURS!!!"

No, they're not. This is the real world, not the movies. And as it's the real world, the Sithism community is, in many aspects, irrelevant to the Jediism community. I wouldn't hide away from using two colours just because a fictional movie uses them as a symbol of the bad guys ;)

If not red and black I would probably go with light blue (sky) and dark blue (navy).

But whatever colours you choose, it's going to look awesome :)

We should maybe talk to Parks sabers and ask them if they wanted to make us some TOTJO shields. Their aluminum Captain America one looks surprisingly good.

Better to leave questions unanswered than answers unquestioned

Thanks for all the ideas. Little side note, be a bit more specific with coloring. Example: symbol blue, background white. That kind of thing. Thanks :cheer:

I would just go with black and white, as that is our symbol...

Just make sure we don't look like Macedonia: Symbols of the Republic of Macedonia

I like all the ideas, keep them coming. It's starting to look like it going to come down to black & red or black & white. I want as many opinions as possible, don't be shy.
