I'm game to pursue redesigning the logo if people still want to do that. Now that I'm no longer sponsored by KCLS, I have to be more careful about my time and financial commitments vis-a-vis Evergreen.....so, can we pay someone for some number of new designs for us to consider? Maybe $500 worth of ideas?<br clear="all">
