{ganai ko ckire la lojbangirz. gi do kakne lenu tcidu ti} might be what you're looking for, though I'm not sure whether you want logical connectives all tangled up in there (or, indeed, whether I'm even using the connective I've got in there correctly). I think doing it with seva'o could go something like {do kakne lenu tcidu ti ku seva'o lenu ko ckire la lojbangirz.}, but, again, I'm not really sure if that says what you mean. 

What I want to say is: "If you can read this, thank the Lojban Group."

There must be multiple ways to say it. What are the elegant/concise
ways?

And can you explain your own translations? Bear in mind I'm really new
at this.


Thanks,
Hal

        do kakne cu tcidu ti seva'o ko ckire la lojbangirz.

    What are other/better ways to say it?
