Logo Competition Rules

The logo contest is open to all community members and will decide the Official Logo for NZESF!. People with a great idea are encouraged to submit it regardless of their ability to render a final version.

The logo contest will run in the following format...

* To enter a design it must be entered as a new thread in the Logo Competition Forum.
* You may add comments and thoughts to entry threads.
* Do not enter a design as a reply to an existing entry's thread.
* The NZESF moderators (who have not entered in the competition) will then consider all entries and vote on a group of five finalists.
* The community will then be given the opportunity to vote for their favourite logo design concept from the five finalists.
* We reserve the right to have the wining concept further developed by our creative team.
* The closing date for entries will be 2000hrs Saturday 5th July 2008.
* Finalists to be announced and the community vote will commence once the five finalists have been determined. All forum members will be able to vote once for their favourite logo.

Unfortunately we have no prize to offer as the site is run out of the goodness of our hearts. However you do get bragging rights and a position on the NZESF team with the title of Graphic Desinger

If you want to get the exact same shade of orange there's a 6-digit 'colour number' which you can use with programs like Photoshop - but I can't find it even after trawling through the source code, anyone got any ideas how to work it out?

Its about #FC800F or close.

The logo does not have to be the same colour it just shouldn't clash with the orange.

Sweet, I think my brown and pink stripes are a winner, there's probably no need for anyone else to enter...
