As you can see we have completely changed the forum. Anyone out there who wants to take a stab at a new logo can enter into this contest. The rules are rather simple: - You must express desire to create and design (by yourself, or w/ other members) a new logo reflecting "IAP 2.0".
- There will be a finite deadline for project submissions, but have not decided on a date as of yet.
- Logos will be judged by the administrators and moderators and the top 3 will be chosen.
- All regular members will be allowed to vote for their favorite logo out of the top 3 that were submitted and pre-qualified by the forum staff.
- Any copyrighted work that is not your own will be rejected.
- Your final logo design must be submitted and marked as your *final entry*
- The format preferably should be in a scalable vector format that can be easily resized to fit our marketing campaigns (forum logo, t-shirt, coffee mugs). This is *important* so please do not submit a 80x80 gif and ask why it was not accepted. We will also accept PSD (Photoshop) or XCF (Gimp) files with layers intact.
- The logo contest entry must be available for IAP without fees or royalties and will be granted such without compensation expressed or otherwise.
- The pre-selected 3 logo contest winners will receive a free "High Society" account granting access to the paid-members area.
- Technical Info:

Chovy is there any way we could offer the winner a high society membership for incentive?

I was going to wait until we release 2.0. Understandable. But if you want to get the ball rolling you could just put something out that says, "we want a new logo for IAP," and simply avoid all mention of IAP 2.0. Depends on how quickly you want it though, I guess. |

I kind of like the "IAP 2.0" as the logo context...and I wanted to wait because I think people would base it on the existing site, which will be short-lived.

Ack. Would've offered a stylish logo/background I was making for another forum (but never finished), but it's raster and not layered. Vector logos are a pain to make, and they look exactly like Flash animations (unless a customer wants one that's 150+MB in size and has the bucks for four color processing). I'll wait and see what is presented (need the competition to get my lazy self motivated). |

Well, you can always post a .png in this thread and if it is a contender (same background, size, etc), perhaps we could figure out a solution. We need the originals in order to modify/resize, etc.

what say you all -- since we only got one submission (well, 2 from the same person) should we pick one?
