    The Android logo seems to be inspired by Keith Haring paintings from the '80s

    Officially it is claimed to be inspired by bathroom signage, but I personally find the resemblance so similar as to question the idea that it played no part in the inspiration.

    [Features] Reader 'crossposted to' section

    I assume that this has been suggested before, but...

    With the 3/5 limit to how many tribes a 'snap' can be posted to, and the rising number of tribes due to influx of new users, I think it would be valuable if 'readers' of a snap could 'crosspost' it to other tribes.

    This 'crossposted to' section could be separate from the main 'published to' section, which would be chosen by the submitter themselves, and could still have the 3-5 limit.

    I've seen numerous comments mentioning that they hit their limit, so couldn't publish to a particular tribe.

    This not only would alleviate that annoyance, but it would also encourage growth of smaller/newer tribes. Currently, if I'm posting a snap, I would tend to choose the larger and more active relevant tribes, rather than smaller tribes, so there is a 'false inertia' for small, new tribes in that regard.

    Just a thought, and I assume it's been mentioned a thousand times before and there's a reason behind not wanting to do it.

    Request for a design (cat memorial tattoo)

    My constant companion of over 16 years is getting very frail. Every night for almost two decades he has slept with his legs wrapped around my forearm. I figure having a few thousand needle punctures in the spot where his paws lay would be a good memorial, since I'll never feel his claws there again once he goes.

    His name is Sebastian, and I'd like a small (quarter or nickel sized) ambigram of "SB" on the interior of my forearm.

    Nothing too feminine please, and I'm not into macabre design either. I realize that ambigrams require a certain level of flourishment, but minimalism is good. Elegant, simple, legible. Up->Down ambigram, not backward/forward.

    Should definitely not resemble BS. I realize I'm treading shaky ground with an SB ambigram... so be careful there.

    I'm trying to design one myself, and if I'm successful, I'll be using mine instead, for sentimental reasons... but I'm not very good at this stuff, so I thought I'd give you guys a chance to have your work permanently engraved on another human's body.

    If I do use your design, I'll obviously provide pictures.

    I apologize if this is an inappropriate place for this request. If anyone knows of other tribes that would be more appropriate, let me know.

    Thanks guys.

    Meta discussion about the content of this tribe

    When I discovered this tribe, I was excited to find a place where amateur/independent songwriters and musicians could share our work and get feedback on it.

    However, looking at the content here there is actually very little of that, and instead it seems to mainly consist of news and blog articles about the corporate music industry. I'm a little disappointed in that to be honest.

    I don't want to be presumptuous, but I think that it might be of benefit to help grow this tribe if the rules were enforced and content was actively removed when it doesn't jive with the stated purpose.

    How-to's I think should be allowed, but post like Prince pulling his music from Spotify, or big name artists telling republicans to stop using their music, just don't seem relevant IMO.

    I mean no offense by this... I just think that the stated intent of this tribe is something that I would LOVE to see come to fruition.

    Can you view your comment history?

    Coming from Reddit, I'm used to being able to browse a chronological list of my comments. I'm looking around and can't seem to find that option here on Snapzu.

    Am I just dense, or is this option not available?
