OSGeo Seal Design Contest
OSGeo just turned 10 and as a gift to ourselves, we would like to invite the artistic minds in our community to develop the official seal for our foundation (in line with our bylaws). This seal will be used on official documents, such as the student award certificates at FOSS4G Events.
Anyone may submit artwork. We are looking for the best, so spread the word to your family and friends.
The winning designer will receive a free pass to FOSS4G-2016.
Contest Parameters
All artwork must be uploaded to the OSGeo wiki and listed on this site by 11:59pm GMT, Feb 20th, 2016.
A short list of submissions will be selected before the general vote.
While designing, please keep in mind that your design has to work as a seal in black and white.
