ATTN Visual Artists - Logo Contest: UMD Gamer Symphony Orchestra!

[justinj212]

Alright GSO fans, our group needs a new logo which doesn't potentially infringe upon any copyright laws. We'd like to make a contest out of this. Any logos can be sent to the officer's email (umgso_officer@googlegroups.com) by the drop dead date of August 1st. Here are a few guidelines to help you:

-nothing copyright infringing. nothing. no registered characters, hardware, names, logos, etc.

-keep it simple. the logo will be printed on objects of varying size, from large to small, so it needs to be visible, clear, and not too complicated.

-since the size will be changed, we don't require your submissions to be any specific size. Just make sure it looks good both stretched and shrunken.

-we ask you submit both color and monochrome versions of the logo. we ask that you please limit the number of colors in the color version to three.

-any text should be legible and used sparingly.

-our current pac-man-esque logo and other info about our group can be found here

The grand prize (aside from the pride of having us use the logo) will be a free t-shirt, an autographed photo of the GSO, and a CD of our spring performance. Runners up will also receive the CD. If you have any questions, please send them to umgso_officer@googlegroups.com

Thanks,

-Justin Johnston, UMDGSO Advertising Officer

Threw a lil' attention dealie in the thread title. If you've got some skills, try to win some free swag from the GSO.

ah darn i thought this was going to be like a composition contest for an audio logo, an original piece of music akin to something that like Uematsu did for Play!

Fixed the thread title, but that's a good idea the GSO should steal.
