Yup that is it, it is directly from the logo.

I also have a second background that might work for the event, it has a better local tie, but the Statue of Liberty (even the iconic tourist novelty rendition) is a very powerful image for the USA. Also, I faux lightened the background with a transparency overlay - but that is a terrible solution I think, so for a next pass would play a bit with lightning the background image a bit and lose the added layer. > > Please have a look at the "Guidelines and Best Practices" areas on the > wiki page: I have, and will again.
