I agree, the logos are nice, but do nothing to represent that we are genealogy websites.
Let's get other submissions, vote, and have a one required logo for all GenWeb sites.

Subject: [OHGW] Advisory Board Motion
This current motion is before the Advisory Board of the USGW -
It has been moved by Darilee and seconded by Gail to approve the
McGrew-Ayres "USA/flag" logos shown on
http://www.mcgrewfamily.com/usgw.html as officially acceptable
alternatives to the existing USGenWeb logo for all USGenWeb sites.
The motion is numbered 04-23. Is there any discussion?
**************************************
This is what I have sent as my discussion:
While I would probably be one of the first to change all my logos to the
first one on the page that Julie designed, I cannot support the motion as
written. I love Julie's designs and personally eager for a new logo. If it
were to say an acceptable alternative until such time as others were able to
submit designs, with irrevocable permission for the project to use them, and
a vote was held by the members of the project to approve what they would
like as a logo, then I could support it.
I really think that the members of this project should be able to look at
new designs, including the old logo, choose what they would like, by a
project wide vote, and then move on from there.
Just my humble opinion.
***************************************
Before making an official vote on this motion, I would like you know your
opinion. Please let me know on how *you* think that I should vote.
Regardless of my feelings, I will go with the majority of what *you* think.
Thanks,
Jan Cortez
