Hey All,

It's been awhile since we had a contest for a new logo. There have been some great suggestions in thread asking for tech anniversaries and I need to go through them, but for now let's have a contest for a holiday logo since we're entering the holiday season.

We won't have time to add a Thanksgiving specific logo so feel free to include Thanksgiving themes if you want. And naturally feel free to call up themes of Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or any other holiday that falls this time of year.

General wintery goodness is also welcome, unless of course you live in the Southern Hemisphere. In that case summery goodness is welcome as well.

I think most of you know how this works. Shows us your logo designs here. Make them 304px by 80px and ideally a jpg, .gif, or .png. In the end I'll be taking your image and turning it into one of those formats at that size.

If your image is a different size at least try to have the same proportions. When I resize to 304px by 80px I do so in whatever way is quickest for me. That could mean cropping your image in a way you don't prefer so do your best to get the dimensions right.

We'll let the contest go till the end of the month. I'll be away at the time so you'll probably have an extra day or two if you want.

Now let's see some holiday themed logos so we can all get into the mood.
Color Scheme: Match the WT color scheme   Type of Design: Layout   Desired Dimensions: 304px x 80px   Desired Filetypes: jpg, gif, png   Prize: Link to your site for one month   How prize will be delivered: Give us the url and anchor text and we'll add the link   End Date: December 8th

It may be worth taking the W-T background colour and stretching it so you dotn have a white BG. ( unless yours is transparent )

One question Vangogh,

Can I let my graphic designers design the logo for the forums and post it here? ( they aren't registered on the forums )

The logos are looking good. Since we still don't have too many I figured we'd extend the contest a bit to the 8th. That should still leave plenty of time for a vote and to get the new logo in place.

I had been leaving this contest open in the hopes of getting more entries, but I think it's time to take what we have and get things set up for the vote. I'll pass the logos on to those with access to upload them and then I'll start the voting as soon as the images are online.

Eric the odds seem with you.

I'd give it a shot but let's be honest... Eric has this thing in the bag with that awesome Santa and reindeer one.

I agree.

My available graphic designer did not know what to design, so I couldn't submit an entry,
