Brainstorming an ISCABBS logo contest
Tomte
to brainstorm the specifics for an ISCABBS logo contest. So I'm
starting this thread.
Ideas I've heard so far:
Post the contest to Graphics>
Idea I had:
Post the contest to Announcements>
Questions I still have:
Should there be any contraints or requirements on the size of the
graphic, what format it should be in, etc?
How should judging/voting be handled?
How do we make it clear that we want to be free to use the results on
other sites, perhaps even modify the logo for specific purposes?
Other things I haven't thought of?
Does anyone have a prize they would like to contribute? ;-)

I'll take a stab, just my opinion of course, 2" square or so, maybe a
.bmp file.

I have a Flickr account and would be willing to post on there, you can
even leave comments, thats how people would vote.

Now here could be the deal closer, considering we have no idea who is
on ISCA group at the University........ :)

Where would we use the said logo?

Oh, I just meant some way to be clear that there wouldn't be some
copyright issue with the logos, so that we could use them on our own
sites. I don't think there is anything ISCA the non-existant student
group needs to do to give us permission to create our own websites
discussing ISCABBS, and using a logo on those sites.
That said, if ISCA did materialize some day and want to use the logo
on one of its sites, I would have no problem with that whatsoever.

I think the sky's the limit on where it could be used. Certainly on
any site promoting ISCABBS past present, or future.

announcement about the contest soon. I'd like to have some kind of
prize. Does anyone have any ideas here? I'm thinking something
cheap, but goofy and perhaps tangentally ISCA-related. Like 10 pounds
of Cheetos or something. (related to ISCA because its what I like to
gnosh on when spending too much time on ISCA. :)

I'll take you up on your Flickr account offer! :) I think the voting
should be handled via ISCA mail, however, to assure one vote per
person. Perhaps some neutral party who doesn't have an entry in the
contest. (Since I'm planning on taking a stab at it, it can't be me.)
