So, what's the verdict? Hot or not?
 
Lovely! Even better than before.
 
That's nice! :wacko:
What are the species depicted? (Let me guess: Tylototriton verrucosus, Ambystoma mavortium larvae, Ambystoma texanum and Plethodon glutinosus? I am not good at ID'ing)
 
I think it is a welcome improvement!:D

P.S.
Happy B-day John
 
Nice! I like the new logo quite a bit. It feels a little busy, but I'm no graphic designer.

I hope people don't take it as a subliminal message to mix species!
 
Looks good.

Ambystoma mavortium mavortium, Tylototriton verrucosus, Ambystoma texanum are correct. The Plethodon is a hard one to answer. It was found in McCurtain County, Oklahoma. Which means it could be Plethodon albagula or possibly Plethodon sequoyah. If you can tell the difference you win a gold star because I can't.

Re: The logo being busy, I can see what you mean. Anyone else think the same? I take criticism well :p I promise.

Well do you mean the Caudata.org logo with the orange C or the colorful pictures behind it? The logo no, the pictures maybe a little tiny bit I'd rather see my newt "famous" and in the picture when coming to the site for the first time than not. I only see the picture briefly before scrolling down to actual text anyway. For what that is worth.
 
That's pretty hot! That A.texanum totally floats my boat.
 
It's lovely. My only critique is that the sizes of the sals are out of proportion. The largest sal (axolotl) is the smallest image, and the smallest sal (Plethodon) is the largest image.

It's a tiger salamander larva, tsk tsk Jen :p.

Actually the Plethodon was close to or the same size as the texanum.

I'll have a think. There's one thing I want to change any how.
 
Actually now that I think about it, I think the slimy was bigger than the texanum.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
