[CoLoCo] Ad New Team Logo :-)

[Neal McBurnett]

Mitch - I love the logo with the flag in the shape of the state.

I also loved the original idea, in which the shape of the state was
more accurate - not a rectangle but curved like a cutout from a normal
US map.  You tilted the rectangle which is good and makes it look more
alive, but the top isn't shorter than the bottom and the lines aren't
curved.

Can anyone warp the flag so it is in the more accurate shape of the
state?  I would think some of the mapping tools out there could do it,
or hopefully gimp or photoshop have warping tools that could do a
reasonable job of it.

If not, I know I'm probably asking for more than enough - it is a
great logo already.  And no need to get into a discussion of how the
shape of the state really is a bumpy 3-d surface on a sphere and can't
be represented in 2-D properly :-)
