So while doing some trolling, I found this image which could be a wonderful basis for an FE, t-shirt, embroidery or other similar interpretation!

There are several other very cool logos at this same site:

Great image and I think it's a great logo for this thread!

A couple people were asking about the FE and since we have a few first timers on board I thought I would interject some helpful links and offerings regarding the Fish Extender/Exchange.

Every stateroom has a fish hanging on the wall outside the door. This is part decoration and part message center. The fish is there for Disney to place important communications to you such as excursion tickets and notes from the Cruise staff. It is like a mailbox for your room.

On the discussion forum here, it is very popular to participate in a Fish Extender exchange. This entails having a fish extender hanging off the fish outside your room. If you aren't sure how the exchange works or the size and shape of a fish extender be sure to visit the links below. A fish extender can be made of cloth, plastic or vinyl. It can be very creative or very simple. If you don't care to create your own Fish Extender, you will find many auctions on EBay where one can be customized for you.

All the people in the exchange buy little items and place them in each other's fish extenders. It is great fun to come back and check the items you have received daily.

• Here is a great write up by a fellow member.
• Fish Extenders!
• Instructions on how to make a no-sew Fish Extender

Hope this helps.
