Is this 2d five-fold Venn Diagram original and valid?

Question

Venn diagrams captured my attention a few years ago. One night I decided to see if I could come up with some new Venn Diagrams. After a few hours, this is what I came up with. I'm a web developer not a mathematician, so I'm quite proud of this little creation. I've searched the internet and several books to confirm that this construction is unique. Lastly, I wanted to post it here because I know that the this crowd has more resources and knowledge than are available to me.

Looks ok, just a small typo: you have AEC written twice (once as "AEC" and once as "ACE") , one of them is actually ACD. — Djaian, Nov 08 '10 at 08:37

It seems okay to me.

You might want to take a look at a very nice paper that appeard in the Notices of the American Mathematical Society in 2006 about Venn diagrams:

Ruskey, Frank; Savage, Carla D.; Wagon, Stan. The search for simple symmetric Venn diagrams. Notices Amer. Math. Soc. 53 (2006), no. 11, 1304–1312.

At least I (an AMS member) can access it in PDF format on the web. I don't know if the link will work for someone who is not a member, though.

There's also the survey by Ruskey and Weston at http://www.combinatorics.org/Surveys/ds5/VennEJC.html – Robin Chapman Oct 26 '10 at 14:53
This is excellent! The link works fine. The paper looks wonderfully interesting. I cant thank you enough. – Oct 26 '10 at 14:55
