Second one for me too.
 
 Now if we could just get a vote on the Vancouver 2010 logo.

Voted for #1.  Do they actually take the votes into account.  That's not very 'Bush's America' of them.

I like apples too, but with the first one the graphic designer in me came out and said, "Why the hell are they trying to get all of this information on a one inch space?" That was how they did things 100 years ago... try to shove an entire almanac into a logo.

While we're at it, we need to redesign at least two provincial flags. The ones that look like they're ready for the Battle of Marston Moor (PEI, NB) have got to go.

I have to agree.  But I also kind of like all the images on the coin.  Call me old fashioned.

We could also do a Warner Bros. design. with a gigantic apple over the state map, with a cartoon fish head bursting through the centre of the apple.
 
 Thing is, if you actually offered that design, odds are that people would really choose it. Worse things could happen.

Alberta needs to change their flag to a giant oil driller.

  Did a thread on how bad the washington state flag is.
