Houston, we have a problem...
Okay all,
I was informed by a friend of mine that one of our logos cannot be used because of copyright issues. Logo #6 is from a Nebraska licence plate, and is copyrighted by the state. Now, Le me know what you all think, since 5 of you voted for it. Should we re-do the vote, or go with the logo that is leading (#5). I'll send out a pm also so every one will be aware, since I want everyone's input on this!

idk, the vote was so close that i would probably do a revote just so we don't have any hard feelings or none of that
...or we could take the license plate one and break the law anyway, not my first time and i'm sure most of u guys aren't new to the system either

Who pays for the people who came up with that license plate design? The taxpayers. So, technically we own it. BUT, I completely understand, Nebraska is full of greedy politicians who wouldn't think twice about suing a group of 50 people that put their copyrighted picture on a T-shirt.
Ok, I'm off my soapbox now... All the logos are great, so maybe just run another vote with the top two or three, or something like that.
Maybe you should excommunicate the member who came up with that design... Oh, wait a minute, it might have been me... I better lookout for the Nebraska copyright enforcement police

Ooooooo...that's it Rob! Get out!!...Oh, that's right, you already left...It's too bad, I kind of liked that one too. I'm probably going to go ahead and do that. I'll have to get a pm out also, so the guys that don't come in much can vote also.

Actually, that is the real reason I moved to South Dakota... I have to continue to work across the river in Nebraska, to pay off my fine for stealing that design. If I fail to keep up my end of the deal, they'll take my Ford truck and make me drive a Dodge!

Jake - I don't know how you put up with Pat, he's pretty ruthless. 
At least we succeeded in hijacking another one of his threads... lol.
