Ok, I just updated the logo again, I hope this one looks a little better.
I'm adding a section to the main (index.xml) page under 'Foundation'. It is
titled "What's with the logo?". I then briefly explain the contest and
how/what to do to submit entries and I'd like to list the prizes and dates
when we will announce the winner. I wanted to get some feedback first.
I'm sure every TLP is different, but what is a good size for the logo?
I also assume we want 2 versions. A "logo" and a "powered by" image. Is
this correct?
How long do we run the contest for?
Binding votes are committers or PMC? I think we should let the community
vote and tally up those results and announce them as well as what the
binding votes chose.
Where do people submit entries? Jira? The wiki? Or simply email them in
and one of us can upload them?
Is there anything else I missed?

Now that's funny, when creating that img, I actually paused for a few
seconds and debated naming it to what you said...wow! Oh well, guess I
wasn't rubbing both brain cells together fast enough...good catch, I'll
fix right now.

Ok, it works, although I had to fix a PITA work-around for cygwin on
windows. I've added my notes to the wiki about that.

LOL... I have that exact same note on the internal wiki at work.
Also, notice that shale-logo.jpg is in place (or will be after the
sync).
We can change it to be whatever. Like what Sean mentioned, a "What's up
with the logo?" with a link to the contest details or something.
What do you think?
It finally showed up, it was blank for a while and I was confused. :)
Works for me, my only requirement is that it say "Shale" in it
somewhere.
We should use something like shale-logo-temp.jpg for the filename,
though. I'm pretty sure the Apache sites are set up to encourage
caching at every possible level. Using shale-logo.jpg now, and
changing the contents of the image once we choose a final logo may not
work as desired. Some population out there may continue to see the
old version and never know it changed.
Thanks!
