I didn`t have a idea to totally change the logo. I did not want to make a banner either. Well, I guess making it go in a straight line Is changing the logo! I like the blue letters and the basic design of the logo but I was proposing to make it more streamlined to allow for...yeah Your graphics because I must be visual like Zany has pointed out! I love pictures and never think of them as clutter. I wanted your pictures and things that said "All Things Plants" in picture form.
The texture sounds like a good happy medium though.
My feelings aren`t hurt but I`m pleased that ideas are considered! Karen
