Thanks Mike. This is just a concept for them. However If it gains popularity among our family maybe my cousins will make a smart decision. %3B)

This is great! I love the colors. Only one comment - for visibility's sake I might darken the secondary text on the inside of the seal. It's a little tough to read - and I would say especially from a distance.

Reply
admarcbart Jan. 20 '08

thanks for the comments.**The secondary text is meant to be just that, secondary. It is to be visual only at close ranges or as accents. Otherwise the end viewer would have a lot of copy to take in at once and the visual would be compromised. :)*
