I've been on the sidelines about this, not really speaking my mind, but seeing this? Compared to what you already have?

No...Just no...

This one is overworked, way too complex, and what is personally a big no-no for me: There's lots of text...Text you won't be able to see at 100x100 resolutions anyway...
It's not a seal, it's a crest.
It looks way too 'official' and 'high nosed'. It's not simple and to the point.
Your current icon? The one you're already using? That's straight and to the point, it's well made, high quality, with no question as to what it represents: A paw, covered in stars and stripes. That's it, and it's no more than that, but no less either.

This...What is it? Is that an eagle? It looks like a falcon, or a hawk. That's most certainly 'NOT' an eagle, and CERTAINLY not a bald eagle. Regardless, it doesn't look properly done for what it is. It's silhouette does not resemble a bald eagle, or an eagle at all, as I mentioned before.

The paws are too small, as is the text. People seeing it at its proper resolution won't know what its trying to convey cause all they'll probably see is a vague avian outline, stripes, and some dots in a half circle.

Nope. I still think you should just stick with the icon/logo you're using already, and stop trying to perfect what is already just fine as it is.

Might make a neat id - but with the comment above - I agree with a few things. Less text (even though I know its trying to look presidential) - and no weird feathers on the eagle head - everything else I like

I like it. But viewing it at 100x100 is a valid concern. if you still can make everything out that small, go ahead. but make sure to resize it, take a break, and look at it with a fresh point of view. put it out of your mind for a day, then look at it small. if you have to squint, no good. if you have to really stare, no good. the paw and flag is simple, none of that needed, yeah. but if you can improve on it, without needing to zoom in, even better.

if I could recommend, add a paw to the shield. that might make it a little easier.

awesome.

The feathers on the head only thing that is that looks strange.
Not that its bad, just strange.

Other than that it looks very good.
Very Patriotic looking :D

Also I agree with viewing it at the 100x100 size.
If it will be easy to read or not.

I love the red, white, and blue of our country on that seal. And I love that bald eagle on it, it is symbol of our country.

Hey thanks. Sorry that I didn't take into account the 100x100 size of the icon... maybe the seal in the middle be that icon.

Here is the original that I sent to our founding founders... of the page.
Thanks so much guys :3

The current logo has been bothering me for a while, so glad the group is getting a fresh one.

But this one is too over complicated and way too serious business.

I would cut out that entire center graphic and just put a paw, and change the text to "American Furs".

My fellow American furries,

We here as American Furries, are taking the great seal of our great furry nation, just a tad too seriously. This great seal of our fair furry nation, is a terrific parody of our own great seal of the united states. Just like old "Weird Al" himself, no offense or dishonor is intended, rather it is a humorous and light hearted tribute to our own presidential seal, a stupendious and wonderful image that bears tribute to the patriotism, valor, honor, faithfulness, and dignity of our great nation.

In all seriousness, I think its a good "official seal" just like our own official seal of the president of the united states. The red white and blue stands for the colors of our own great nation, the stars representing our own states, the paw prints representing the impact that our beloved fandom has on our lives and culture.

I'm not against changes, but I like this one.

Love the logo its awesome
