the reason i like isn't it is because it is a little irreverant and does not try to indicate that this is a travel site (and therefore risk being classed as a ticket selling site or somesuch without a visit)

Though many will argue that it does not have meaning to somebody who hasn't been to India, I would say it teases enough to want that somebody to find out what this site is all about.

isn't it?

i also think that, as a question, it arouses curiousity. and it's simple. and again, such a lovely saying...

Thanks for the support It is a bit insider-ish, in that not everyone knows what "one pen" refers to (nothing dirty ).

Anyhow, my opinion is that the slogan should have a witty India-related twist that doesn't open up to everyone too easily. If you try to make it too accessible, it easily becomes a bit bland.

That's why I'm also ready to jump on the "isn't it" bandwagon

Is there anything against having a couple of different varieties of T Shirts? With the two or three most liked slogans?

hey will this slogan appear on the website as well?
I just now realised that this might be solely for the T-shirts..which means it can be as wacky as we want...

Lightbulb Not Original

My idea is not original at all, infact I saw it as part of a fellow Imer's ID. I have laughed over it so many times since the first time I noticed it.

Have a picture of an autorickshaw and driver with the slogan: "Why are you Out Standing, Please In Come."

May play a dual role of inviting people to join the IM group, visit India,uses humor to get the point across and very Indian at that. PERHAPS!!!

By the way who owns India Mike. E-mail me at dandeva@earthlink.net
