We still technically need permission from our IH to use the logo or anything else (off our international website) on anything else (for example our own chapter website).

But contrary to what DanShaver seems to think, we the individual members of our organizations do not have to be licensed in order to use our own organization's info. AND, we can even buy things from non licensed vendors..........

(yes, we had a HUGE discussion on this at our recent convention so I do know what was discussed and decided)
