Don’t ask AI to generate the official American Legion family emblems.

To everyone that is creating those wonderful AI flyers with the American Legion family emblems, please take a minute to read this email and see the attached link. Please stop asking AI to generate the family emblems as 99% of the generated emblems are wrong. You have a few options when making your flyers.
1. Make a flyer and don’t use the emblems.
2. Make a flyer and ask AI to leave space for the emblems and then attach APPROVED emblems into to flyer. If you have approved emblems downloaded on your computer, use the directions below.
3. Open the link I have attached and download the marketing guide to your computer, then take the guide and put it directly into your AI platform and tell AI to use the approved emblems or branding marks that are in the guide. Please note that this guide only has The American Legion emblems, not the Auxiliary, Sons or Riders.
