Mike,
I like the design of the logo ....It is just that the
blues tend to run together and detract from the design
....I took the logo into Paint Shop and darkened the
blue border to a deep darker blue and the design in
the center than pops out at you more. This would still
be a blue color so the cost would not be anymore but
it would make the design stand out more. Just a
suggestion though. I will buy a Tshirt no matter what
the design to support SLAGA..
