Many people will view this as disrespectful (like Imus's comment, or Michael Richards comment, or Mel Gibson's ...); I strongly urge you to re-consider the shape. As a crossword constructor (who is Jewish), I use the term "pinwheel" when approaching a shape of this nature in crosswords (usually 4 long entries of equal length), but avoid making it look like a swastika.

Again, this is one of those things where people might look at you funny for months to come and judge you harshly. You can avoid this now by not using that shape.

of all things to pick, you chose a "swastika"? why?
