Yeah, that would work.

If someone wants to get fancy, they can try editing this one to eliminate the venue-specific information while keeping the pretty but intricate background. I'm not sure AI is sophisticated enough yet to erase the extraneous text without butchering the background.

We can also try to do something with this. Combine part of the logo on the left with the image on the right. The challenge is Mairead's arms are so low, the logo, if used as a whole, clashes with the photo. So we'd have to take one part of the logo (the "Celtic Woman" the "Symphony" or "Christmas Tour 2025" and put that at the bottom of the right side, then turn it into a square. Too much work for me.

I wonder if CW would provide us the graphics / promo material they send to the venues. It would make it easier to construct this kind of stuff if we have proper transparencies, especially of the logos and other text. Otherwise, it requires deconstructing images available online by removing the backgrounds with either AI (which isn't quite where it needs to be for complex graphics yet) or painful manual work to make transparent layers.

I cropped the image Muirgen posted this morning into a square. How does this look for a board logo?

I made 2 of them. One retains the space around the edges. The second one crops out the surrounding space so the girls and the logo are more prominent. You can go with whichever one looks better as a tiny avatar.
