Excellent idea, Dale. I agree with you. Poll the cc's and let them decide which logo should be the USGenWeb "brand". We have one logo for ILGenWeb. One logo = no confusion.

Only problem here is that the membership voted in multiple logos when the last batch was selected. I'm not sure that they would change their minds. hmmm - MI has 84 state logos. LOL One State specific and 83 county specific with a star on the county ones indicating the approximate area of the county within the state.
