In response to what was suggested on the forum, we are going to have a quick competition for making the new logo for Republic of Code. 

Prize: 1 8GB iPod Nano for the first place winner of the competition.

Contest:
Design a logo for the Republic of Code.

• The logo must include the words “Republic of Code”.
• The logo must not include the logo or trademark of any other company, website, or individual.
• The logo must be submitted in AI format.
• We are NOT asking for a banner, but just a logo on a white background.
• Take note of the fact that the logo should remain distinctive even when used in a small size (eg. as a Favicon).
• The logo is preferred to be usable in monochrome as well as full color.

Method of Submission:
All submissions are to be sent to competition@republicofcode.com, along with the participant’s full name and contact details including a mailing address to which the prize could be posted. You may submit up to three logos, but only one will qualify for the final poll.

Choosing the Winners:
The Republic of Code team will select the best three submissions and put them in a poll for the registered forum members to vote for the winning submission.

Deadline:
January 18th, 2009. The poll will be started on the 21st of January and will be closed on the 25th of January.

Qualification:
Individuals from all around the world qualify for this competition. Registration is not required. The moderators, administrators, and website owners and their families do not qualify.
