I don't really get it. You want a logo? a QR code template? a banner? also what are you looking for the design? could you be a little more specific instead of linking to other places? it is confusing.
Apologies for the confusion, bud. I was doing what's needed in stages, amassing banner ideas first, seeking a graphic designing, of which I now have in place, second to bring all the design elements together and ready for placement on a banner to be held up during the Super Bowl. I'm still seeking somebody to create the physical banner once the design is at hand. Also, there's a backside of the banner that shouldn't be wasted, thus seeking another Bitcoin-themed Super-Bowl/FOX inspired design.

Title of thread NEEDS updated!http://bitcoinexaminer.org/are-the-seattle-seahawks-accepting-bitcoin/UPDATE January, 22 15:00
A source from BitPay has confirmed to Bitcoin Examiner that the Seattle Seahawks are not accepting Bitcoin, though the rumor was spread by the payment processing company. BitPay is currently working to remove the announcement from Google+. ORIGINAL ARTICLE
After the Sacramento Kings, there is a new professional sports team that could be about to step into the Bitcoin market. Although it is all just a rumour for now, the Seattle Seahawks, the NFC american football team that will soon fight for the Super Bowl against the Denver Broncos, might be accepting Bitcoin through BitPay.
The rumour was exactly launched by the payment processor via its Google+ profile, but it is still lacking official confirmation. The message published by BitPay said that “We are excited to see our newest merchant, +Seattle Seahawks, accepting Bitcoin and going to the Super Bowl!”.
So far, the information wasn’t reproduced in any other social media profile belonging to BitPay or confirmed by the Seattle Seahawks, but neither part denied the announcement as well.
However, there could be another explanation for the rumour. While the Seahawks might or might not be accepting Bitcoin, one of the team’s players is definitely taking cryptocurrency payments in his online store. Seattle’s cornerback Richard Sherman announced a few days ago he is now accepting digital money at RichardSherman25.com.
The player’s e-commerce platform mainly sells clothing and accessories for man, woman and children inspired by the Seahawks theme.
However, it would be a long jump for BitPay to announce that a whole team is accepting Bitcoin when it was actually just an individual decision made by a single player. Bitcoin Examiner has tried to confirm this information with the payment processing company, but it wasn’t possible to obtain an answer so far.
The Seattle Seahawks could become the second big pro team to make this move in the entire world, after the California-based NBA team Sacramento Kings announced they were becoming Bitcoin-friendly just a week ago.
Starting March, the Kings’ fans will be able to use cryptocurrency to pay for game tickets and official merchandising at the team’s online store.

Fuck the Seahawks.
49ers fan.
I'm a Bears fan, and Bears start with B, and that spells... 49ers named after the miners who came to cali during the 1849 gold rush. Our team represents the miners! WHATEVER!!! My team, Da Bears, represents a Bear Market, so... Did I mention that I also like the Chicago Bulls?

Bruno, do you really need to increase your post count? I find that hard to believe. Is there someone ahead of you? Who?
I'm not trying to increase my post count, otherwise I would pen a reply to your post. Seriously, I'm just tryin' to bring awareness to the thread I linked to in the OP. See how guerrilla marketing works? is this bitcointalk drama?

I'll be honest, I have fantasized about doing it with a nun she'd have to be hot though and not realising your pregnant? Oh please, that's the oldest trick in the 'book' hur hur hur She was tricked, made to believe that by sticking rosary beads up her ass during intercourse would prevent her from becoming pregnant. The newest trick in the Neo-Covenant.

So anyone hook up a killawatt to the BJ?
let's see some numbers. And while we are at it, can somebody who is getting their BJ delivered now take a detailed picture of the PCB so we can compare the revision number with one that was delivered earlier? Is it really an updated PCB? If they have a working PCB, and they are capable of boxing up all the units with light speed, all should ship out this week (or is this yet another lie/broken promise) If it's an old PCB, they must have been testing them (mining?) to sort out the less bad ones... Everyone who gets a BJ will also now get a HJ for free: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbJP9RfbccsPlease allow Two Weeks for delivery. HJ can be upgraded to a BJ with a 10% restocking fee. Since we are now in full-production mode, NO MORE REFUNDS, but we may or may not honor our exclusive MPP (Most People Panic) Program. Testiclomonies: I remember my first HJ. ~LD Johnson I remember that same HJ. ~J Skropenis Simon says, "Guys, stop!" ~HashFast

Additionally, both casinos mentioned in the article aren't exactly the flashiest and most known in the city.
Either way, still one more step forward towards mainstream adoption!
Next step, Derek and Greg Stevens make one of the two establishments a Bitcoin-themed resort. If Bob Stupak were still around, I'm sure he would do it in one of his. Can you image a bank of Bitcoin-themed slot machines? Hell, how about a row of 6-8 Mega-Satoshi progressive slot machines, linked throughout the state, with a minimum grand prize of X BTC? They could easily display the current exchange rate, for even when if fluctuates every minute nobody would pay it any mind because in high school, if they went, they didn't pay math any mind, otherwise they wouldn't be playing the slot machines. "It saids right here that this machine pays me back 97.43%, thus I get my money back." "Fuck that! I rather play the lotto with a 50% return or less because 50 is closer to 1 than 97.blahblahblah is." "You two guys are idiots, for you can easily hedge your investment if you play both equally. You see 97.43% - 50% = 47.43%, which is even closer to 1." "Wow! I didn't know you could subtract percentages. I thought you could only do that with real numbers." "I saw my sister subtract imagine numbers on her homework once, but she was taking calculators classes in college." "Are you three guys done playing since you're bullshitting? Can't you see there's a line of people dying to play your machines?" "I'm done! This machine is running cold." "Me, too. It was hot for a spell, but got cold again." "I'm also done, even though this machine runs hot and cold equally." "Let's go play The Three Little Bears machines again."

I seek undisputable proof of this, for I'm working on a time-sensitive project that would work well if I had a site to link to via a QR-Code. Anybody? Tony? Dank? Atlas? Mommy? (at least one of the named four is no longer with us )
