New Logo #2 greyscale
The old DNA logo is quite dated and we would like feedback from the neighborhood on which of the two new proposed logos you prefer. Viviette Hunt has generously donated her time and graphics skills to create these great designs. They are presented in both color and greyscale. The new logo will appear in color on the web-site and in black and white on the newsletter. Please let us know which design you prefer and if you like the colors shown or have suggestions for a different color palette. Please disregard the difference in size. Send your choice for #1 or #2 and whether or not you like the colors to JacquelineMWright@gmail.com or you are welcome to submit your own design for consideration.
