When I logged on today I noticed that up at the top of the web pages where you normally would have CONQUER (club symbol) CLUB, the symbol was gone and in its place was something that vaguely reminds me of a flower petal with a bullet hole in it.

Today is November 11th, Veterans Day.

Wikipedia wrote:Veterans day is an annual United States holiday honoring military veterans. A federal holiday, it is observed on November 11. It is also celebrated as Armistice Day or Remembrance Day in other parts of the world, falling on November 11, the anniversary of the signing of the Armistice that ended World War I.

Okay... I'm still not sure what the flower petal thing is supposed to be.

I think it's supposed to represent a bullet/shell, although, I'm not particularly sure.

It's a poppy, which is associated with veterans and veteran's causes.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poppy#Symbolism

if you know someone who served, please pick up the phone and give them a thank you call. it's s a small gesture that means a a lot.
