Personally I like the logo being used now in PBA website, it looks regal and formal kind of fitting for stars. I hope PBA get to sort things out here. I do not judge the winner nor I claim myself clean from copying in fact some of my pictures on my blog are grabbed from different sources. But we should not own it as ours always credit the owners as sign of respect and courtesy and professionalism.
Cheers!
