This wishlist item will piss people off and I kind of understand that.
A better icon. Ideally a .svg file that can be scaled up and down.
I paid my artist friend RachelLou some native plants to make me a better icon and we came up with this one
which is what I use on the Nursery website. She did it also as a favor/to be nice but our limitation was that she was an artist, not a digital one and our end-product was an upgrade but I think we could still do better?
I did a reverse image photo and saw that so-called illustrious North Coast Chapter logo was cropped off a $10 historical stock image and I wasn't very impressed
I do think we need to make it look pretty similar though. (My first thought had been for her to just add color /text to the part of it that they use) but neither of us are graphic designers so we didn't know how to.
Not sure if this is something worth spending your time on because this is something that I think the Chapter will definitely disapprove of.
But at some point, leadership will change and they'll want better things right? not just things "because it's always been that way". And maybe we could just have the better things now and upgrade the leadership whenever that happens.

This was actually the GitHub Issue I made for her: https://github.com/kaycix/humboldtnativeplants/issues/14
Of course, there was an uproar from Karen and I kind of understood it but I didn't understand their die-hard allegiance to the crappy black/white one. Like, it definitely looks objectively terrible. Exhibit A: https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=549182450573541&set=a.549182427240210
