Love it, making the heart shape.  Especially with white swans.
 

Fat chance getting that through though, Daoism is the way of Yin but this forum is  mostly overheated Yang style.

@Cobie I share your preference for a symbol that feels peaceful rather than fiery in an angry way.  To my thinking, balanced fire has many positive qualities and these are the ones our banner should emphasize -- vibrancy, warmth, playfulness, forward motion, willingness to take necessary action.  Political conflict and social media squabbles can also be fiery, but most of us will agree we´ve had enough of that.  This said, I think the logo really does need to be a horse.  The point of changing the banner every year around this time has always been to reflect the energy of the coming year according to Chinese astrology.

Ok

 

 

Just expressing how I feel about it. No worries (as I said before) I will be fine with whatever the admods decide.

My artist mom drew it up.  The basic outline of the horse she got from an open source pic on the internet, and she added the ombre effect to look like fire.  She´s thinking the outer parts of the legs need to be darker so she may make another version of the same thing for us to consider.
