Ada and Bluffton Icon's new logos reflect that hometown feel

Times are changing. So are the Icon logos.

The Ada Icon and sister website, Bluffton Icon, this week introduce new logos to viewers. The logos unveiling is today.

The redesign project started in May and included several versions and fine-tuning.
