Hi SLUG, We're holding a competition to get a great new logo for SLUG. This is your chance to make a name for yourself in the SLUG community as "That really cool SLUG logo designer!". There's also a $100 book voucher to be won for the logo that's chosen.
Entry is open to all interested parties, SLUG members and otherwise. Design a logo considering the few points we have added below and send your entries to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can enter as many different logos as you wish. Each entry will be added to http://www.slug.org.au/gallery/sluglogocomp so we can all see them before we vote. Entries close 22nd of August and a short list of the entries will be presented at the August meeting (August 29th). The final decision will be made at this meeting by the financial members (So bring your membership cards along). Prizes include book gift vouchers. First prize for $100, two other prizes for $50. There are more details at http://slug.org.au/~jaime/logocomp/ DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS: Try and create the logo as a scalable/vector type graphic so that it can be put on T-Shirts and caps or made into huge posters in the future. All entries need to be licenced for (at least) free use by SLUG. The SLUG committee would like to suggest the Creative Commons Attribution Share-alike license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/1.0/) -- we will email anyone who submits an unlicenced entry to clarify their licencing rather than refuse to accept their entry. Limiting the number of colours and simplified designs could allow for cheaper/easier printing. Please try and enter a full colour, black on white or white on black version of your design. A website design contest will be held after the winning logo is chosen (so that designers can design using the winning logo). So start getting creative and email us your logos!!
