I created a scalable graphic for use in any program that can use vector 
graphics.  This includes MS Office applications - Word, Excel, PowerPoint, 
Publisher; plus the majority of other word processors and programs that 
have an "Insert Picture" feature.

The advantage of vector graphics over the "photo" formats (jpg, gif, bmp, 
tif, etc.) is that they can be scaled to any size while retaining 100% of 
their original quality.  They also don't suffer generation loss when saved 
to disk repeatedly (as jpg does).

You can use this graphic to create anything from a lapel pin to a highway 
billboard.  Enjoy.
