Scratch Logo with Motto under it

So we all know the current Scratch Logo, right?
However, it just has text saying SCRATCH, without their motto.
Its boring to not have a motto in a site name, when its in a tab name.
What if we fixed that?
INTRODUCING…
Scratch Logo with Motto under it!
This will turn SCRATCH into…
Scratch. Imagine, Program, Share!

Does anyone really use the motto? Or, well, say it? It's not often discussed…

I for one like the plain old “Scratch”
its simple and straight to the point, and adding the motto would clutter it more

Semi-support. It'd be nice, but the current logo is perfectly fine and iconic, no need to change it.

Support but only if it was applied to every instance of the logo that isn’t the top bar (and “about” because it already has the logo with that under it)

Fun fact: the 1.x site had exactly that.

Wouldn't that squish the logo?
They would have to either increase the size of the topbar or make the logo smaller

(or maybe it wouldn't be there for the logo on the topbar?)

Honestly? We don't need it. It doesn't feel fit to be honest, it would be just… weird to see it in the navbar being like some mountain palacsinta or something.
Plus, the motto is underdiscussed, not really… even used whatsoever.
No support.

Would the logo be in the same place as it is now? If the size is the same, it would look very squished and be pretty much impossible to read the motto, which defeats the whole purpose.

I think the current logo is more visibly appealing.

I forgot scratch even has a motto

Idk, the simple logo makes it cleaner, and the motto isn't used very often anymore.

No support, because it would clutter it a lot, and it would be very small anyways and impossible to read. If the text would be made bigger, the navbar would grow too which is not needed as it's going to take up unnecesarry space.

Support for this. It's less cluttering
