<b>Note:</b> Below you will find a rough translation of the German article recently 
posted on Macwelt.de. The Fink project is happy to have started a logo contest. 
Everyone is invited to join this joint effort in finding a graphical representation of 
what Fink stands for. More information can be found in the translation below. <p>

<h3>A logo for the Fink Project.<h3>
<p>
<a href="http://www.macwelt.de";>Macwelt</a>, Europe's best selling magazine for 
MacIntosh and mac-publishing, asks its readers to create a logo for the open source 
project Fink. 
<p>
<b>Munich/Macwelt</b> - Fink needs a face. The open source project lead by developer 
Max Horn, Benjamin Reed  and Dave Morrison is looking for a logo. 

macwelt is actively supporting this open source project, asking all of its readers and 
those interested
 in finding a logo for the Fink Community. Similar to the red devil of the Darwin 
Project oder the little
 Gimp man the Fink logo should meet the demands of modern day print media. Therefore 
it is necessary for
 this logo to be created in RGB, CMYK and B/W. It should scale to large formats such 
as DIN A0 as well as tiny ones to sit in the corner of a business card. 
<p>
The bird "Darwin Finke" (Darwin Finch) does not have to be present. Rather the Fink 
projects asks the artists to let their fantasy play freely.
Quoting Fink's public Relations Manager David H. <tt>"Everything is allowed. From 
graffiti to comic. Even photographs are welcome"</tt>.
<br>
He also created a little check list for the Fink Jury, those willing to submit their 
artwork, should make sure that it meets most requirements.

<ul>
<li>Is it possible to display this logo three dimensional?
<li>Is the logo still readable at extreme diminution?
<li>Does the logo display optically well at extreme magnification?
<li>Is it possible to draw the logo in black and white?
<li>Are only necessary colours used in the Logo?
<li>Will the logo be notice in impulse? Is there an eye-catch?
<li>Doe the used type face fit the branch?
<li>Is the logo incontestably under the Competition protection act
<li>Is the logo discernible from a distance?
<li>Is the logo discernible when up close?
<li>Is this logo memorable?
</ul>
<p>
The contest will be running the next six weeks on the pages of Macwelt. Sent in logos 
will be shown in the Macwel gallery area as well as on the Fink Website. Macwelt is 
hoping to provide the winner with a prize. 
Accepted Formats for the sent in logo are TIFF as well as PDF. The pieces of artwork 
should be sent to redaktionATmacwelt.de with a subject of <b>Fink logo</b>. The 
Macwelt team will take it from there.
<p>

The Fink Project would like to thank Macwelt for their support, we are looking forward 
to <b>your</b> submission and hope that you will be amongst the winners.
