I'd be more than happy to check it out. Can't promise I'll like it though ;)
Does the ASF have a version already grayscaled? It's possible I'm blind and never noticed. I think my favorite ASF logo incorporating the feather is the conductor using the feather instead of a baton. Can't remember the project name to save my life sadly. I thought that was pretty cool. Other than that I've always felt like it was just tacked on most of the time. Not suggesting that it has to not have the feather though. I would just like to compare the two. That was what I was getting at in the initial reply. > On Jul 17, 2014, at 15:34, "Mattmann, Chris A (3980)" > <[email protected]> wrote: > > How about a grayscale feather then? > > Sent from my iPhone > >> On Jul 17, 2014, at 3:30 PM, "Michael Joyce" <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> I've just never been the biggest fan of it in general honestly.
