I wanted the 1st Totem Story to be one who defines who I am on Fanspo. So this article is all on how I made the Tampa Totems!

Deciding the name and city

Of course, being from Tampa, obviously that was going to be the city because they don't have a team right now. However the name was much tougher to decide on. I sat for a good 30 minutes thinking. I had stuff like the Tampa Trojans, Tampa Bay Trailblazers ( forgetting the Portland Trailblazers ) and at one point it was so low, I contemplated naming it the Tampa swimming pools. But none seemed to click for me as a proper team. I started looking around my house, nothing. Until I was doing my Homework, and there was a Totem on one of the pages. And for some reason, it just clicked that that would be the name of the team. The Tampa Totems only existed because of Homework. So thanks Mr Duffy!

Logo

The logo I had all along was just a preset on 2k, I was too lazy to do a proper one. If you're wondering which one it was, it is Bird 2 preset, I think. Then TB_GAMER56 creates a logo for me! Which was absolutely perfect for the vibe of the Totems. Obviously now I've built my whole account off this, including my profile picture. So thanks TB!

Conclusion

So everything that the Totems has lived off, was inspired or created by others. And now because of the Totems, my username is about the Totems, my profile picture is on the Totems and now I'm one of the biggest users here right now.
