"Mascot" for lack of a better word. Maybe it's a "familiar" or a pet or... you decide. SaidIt already has a good proto-logo, so I'm not looking to change it, though adding to it may not be a bad idea. You decide.
I don't know why I didn't think of this before. (I'm too busy getting my geek on, learning about Reddit/SaidIt.)
I'm a professional animator, designer, art director, and director and have worked mostly on commercials, and countless music videos, movies, documentaries, TV, websites, logos, branding, caricatures, illustrations, paintings, tattoos, etc etc etc blah blah blah.
I'm willing to discuss and develop a SaidIt character, mascot, whatever we decide upon. We can discuss it for months or maybe you've already got something in mind. Maybe we'll reach a consensus or maybe we'll vote on it. Or maybe if there are other creative types we can have a contest. Or maybe it's not about one single character but a variety, perhaps of the same style/universe or a random bunch used in random ways. I can emulate pretty much any style. Feel free to share your favourite images as references and discuss what you like or don't like about them.
If you really want to think broadly, down the road, the character might be ripe for exploitation to sell merch to raise funds, be in promos/ads on YouTube, or in embedded flash ads, or even short animations...
I just thought of this so I don't have anything general nor specific in mind yet and want to keep it that way for a while until I get feedback or tired of waiting for feedback. (Unless I have an epiphany or inspirational dream.) So let's open up and share your ideas before I start brainstorming and/or dominating anything irreversible.
Personally I'm hoping for something truther related, possible funny, hopefully clever, insightful, antiestablishmentarian, rebellious, maybe self-deprecating, though better not - something that captures the essence of SaidIt, whatever that may be or become.
Maybe it's too soon. Or maybe you don't want one.
