Al is exactly right. I welcome the information you provided. I do most miniature football logos for between $20-$40 because it fills in down time during the day as i wait for proof approvals and it is my part in helping promote the hobby. I also often trade for stuff that I need. It is not a money maker compared to the corporate work I do. I don't think the guys were knocking you for the info. I think they were just recognizing and informing you that we have those who actually play the game, have been here a while with this community and support the hobby who just happen to be graphic designers. No knock on the graphic designer you posted...his work looks very good and creative! It is great to have options and or competition and I would have no problem placing a link to his site in the links section. I will look forward to seeing someone use his service. I'm sure he will come in with a new take on the miniature football subject.

Please, don't feel slighted and continue to post this kind of info.

In regards to the Texas thing, I seem to recall that the Texas guys had a number of things on their plate that weekend. I think it was more of a timing issue. Didn't they come out the year before to an event with a full stadium and a number of guys?

Give it time. The wargaming commnity numbers compared to miniature football is probably a 10,000 to 1. That is why the MFCA is here. We are still in the baby step stage in comparison, but I forsee much growth on the horizon.
