As for the handsign, you would want something unique that represents *your* org. I just checked out a schools 2006 NPC Recruitment page (it was an SEC school, don't remember which one) and some of the women were posing with handsigns that represented their org. They looked nothing like anything that I've seen with the NPHC. Each chapter was unique and creative.

As for the colors, each org uses a unique shade of a color. Go back about 20 pages of this thread and I gave an example using DG, DZ and Phi Mu -each use some version of pink, but the exact shade is slightly different and unique to that org.

Like I said - just put some thought into it. It is not that hard. But, if your org is about copying other orgs, then I can see where this is a problem.
What if two orgs already have the same colors and hand signs. For instance let's say you had an org started in 1890 and had pink and black as the colors and the peace sign as their handsign. Then in 1930 another org comes along that is a part of a different council that may have never heard of the first org and then choses pink/black as their colors and the peace sign as their hand sign. So in 2006 both orgs end up on the same campus... should one really go back and change their colors and sign just because the other one has it? That doesn't seem fair. Granted it would be odd, but most likely one org would be black, the other would be white and may have really not had to come in contact with each other before that point.
