hello! i have not posted here in a while, but i would like to ask all of you something. i have been working on a new logo recently, and i would like your votes on it. is it better than the old one(at the top of the first page) or is the old one better? it is up to you. Me and devi are the only one working on the website, and i know i do not want to run it by myself, so i am not sure when the website will be up. Please ask AntsDakota to start helping us again!

anyway, here is the new logo option!

So a cool thing is like canadanter does is posts links to here with shops and what states they are in. so everyone visiting the shop is able to see what's available in their state.

i was thinking of doing a thing similar to the gan project in the website. i don't have enough help to develop that yet, though. AntsDakota is not working on the site anymore, so it is up to me and devi to develop it.

I think a logo change is certainly a possibility...  I know what you mean, I'm not even in North or South Dakota.  I understand where it is coming from though.  It almost seems like it is kind of limiting to only South Dakota though, it depends on how you look at it.

losing interest in ants, i believe. but you will have to ask him. he still likes ants, but does not spend as much time with them as he used to.

that is what i was thinking. i made this logo from scratch, so if there are any ideas to add anything to it, i can.

Hibernation is boring maybe he should try to keep his Pogonomyrmex awake so they can entertain him. It is kinda boring with only one colony though I can relate.
