Now you can do montage works of each individual poster. Put their symbol at the center and surround it with all their classic one-liners, catchphrases, artworks, etc.
Oh, and make them dance.
And each one needs a musical theme. About forty-five seconds should do it.
If you start today, you can probably have everything all done by next June.
I'll bring the aspirin.

While you were busy all summer with your LMB friends, I've moved on to greener pastures. If ever you finish with your project and decide to come looking for me, you'll find that I'm quite happy in my new home... the DC Message Boards.

Bah! I bet those DCMBers made her write that. Are you sure there isn't a ransom note around somewhere?
Those symbols would be beautiful done up in copper as one big metal poster. If I knew a metal worker, he/she'd have a commission (with your approval, of course!).

For ketchup drip or coleslaw drop... For carelessly spilled soda pop... Let those who leave behind their slop... Beware the power... of Abin's Mop!
Abin Quank, apart from being the Green Lantern ring-wielding patriarch of the ever-expanding Quank Clan, is, of course, also the Legion World janitor. I like to imagine the moment when he was given the ring, being told, "With this ring, your willpower can accomplish anything your mind can imagine," and then Abin thinking, "Yes! Finally I can get those stubborn scuffs off the HQ floor!"
For his symbol, I wanted to combine these two seemingly disparate ideas, when it occurred to me that someone who didn't give up his janitorial duties simply because he was granted supreme power would, of course, put the power battery to practical use... promptly fashioning it into a more appropriate tool of his trade. I'm not sure if it shows up at this scale, but the little "caution" symbol on the side of the bucket is also a GL logo.
Ex, You Were Right! Your idea was perfect. And the new oath!
Genius! Pure Genius! I'm in AWE!

For what it's worth, Ibby, when Rocky was elected Deputy Leader under Joeboy, I wrote the LMB Leader's oath of office. As leader, Rocky would have been sworn in with the following: I, Yy’dyptyyz Krysokom ky Rokk H’por kep D’zant L’yal ky Ollurem’yy Pyngwyny, Rockhopper Lad, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of Leader of the Legion of Message Board Posters, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the Legion of Message Board Posters and Legion World, so help me Dywh.
I wrote in such a way that the name of the appropriate Deity can be invoked at the end. Joeboy took it ending with "so help me Solomon, Hercules, Achilles, Zeus, Atlas and Mercury."
