Thanks Dennis and Danny, you both cheered me up  :)
Dennis I have never been a lover of the find a twister logo, I think my computer guy over did the photoshop.
It would be nice for the logo to be compact for letter head and possibly on a T shirt and thanks for getting the ball rolling.

whats wrong with the one you are using on the DVD's now.

Its a bag of balloon models with the title

or a slight change to a picture of a round balloon bag of uninflated multi-coloured Balloon tips in a rainbow/colour wheel design rather than models (that would also show the artistic/creative skills side of the art).

Says it all

I'd love to enter this competition with a fully formed logo. However my skill level on photoshop is terrible. And my drawing skills are even worse!

However my entry is a description...

Using the Balloon Chat twisted letters for the words "Balloon Artists Guild" with a shield and balloon dog on it. The balloon dog could also be the one on the Balloon Tutorials button on the front page. I'd keep the colours simple as the twisted letters are multi coloured. And have the Shield balloon chat yellow and the dog in dark blue.

I suggest a balloon coat-of-arms (v. British) in a traditional style,
such as the one pictured with Balloon Artists Guild across the top, and we could come up with a motto for ourselves (my suggestion 'Care and Share') which we get a bright spark to translate into Latin. This would run on the blue ribbon in the traditional way.

Did anyone ever win this?

Natalie's entry was definitely the best!

Yes I agree Natalie's coat of arms is very good and I believe was made for a job at 10 Downing St, it is 10 Downing St's coat of arms so I don't think it would be a good idea to use.
Natalie looks in now and again and hopefully will let us know one way or the other.

If we wanted to replicate this on T-Shirts etc I think it would be too busy, I think we would need something a little more simplistic.
It would be great to get a logo together but the offer of free membership would not be available as we are a very small club and need to keep an eye on the purse strings.
Running 10 events with star lectures is a tricky juggling act especially with only 29 members.

"e flexibus unum" is a twist on  "e pluribus unum", the motto of the USA

"From the many, one" > "From the twistings, one"  was my thinking. Google translate has it as "a torquens unum" which loses the joke a bit. Any latin scholars out there?
