Yes, that is true. The first round voting was carried out in such a way that the 50 were reduced to just a few. In the first round each ballot had 5 votes to distribute to one to five designs. A second round was called and the vote between the top two was close. The PPMC made the final choice. The selected design was from a professional shop. They recently helped with round buttons for the Flex 360 conference. Regards, Dave > >> Stella's was far better that the one that got selected. >> >> >> Regards
