I know my limitations when it comes to being creative. I am not extremely good at artsy coming up with things that look good. I was always the kid at school who would take their picture home to their mom and she would say, “Tim! What a nice horse you drew!” and I would exclaim, “It’s not a horse! It’s a dishwasher!”

So, realizing my artistic limits, when I decided that Daily Cup of Tech needs a good logo for putting on some merchandise, I new I needed help! So, here is what we are going to do.

Your Part

Come up with a cool logo for Daily Cup of Tech and submit it via e-mail by Saturday, August 11, 2007 at midnight. I will be using it on coffee mugs and t-shirts via CafePress so images should be at least 12″x12″ at 200 DPI.

Note: These must be original art pieces. All entries become the property of Daily Cup of Tech.

My Part

I will collect the entrants and then put them on Daily Cup of Tech for voting. Voting will start Monday, August 13, 2007 and finish Friday, August 17, 2007. The winner will be announced Monday, August 20, 2007.

Prizes

The person receiving the most votes will win a Daily Cup of Tech coffee mug and t-shirt with their new logo on it. They will also receive a $50 Amazon.com gift certificate.

Let the Contest Begin!

Fire up your graphic tool of choice and get you artsy on!

If you found this post useful, why don't you buy me a cup of coffee to show your gratitude?

   comments effectively accused DCoT of supporting “spec work” - what they define to be as, “Spec has become the short form for any work done on a speculative basis. In other words, any requested work for which a fair and reasonable fee has not been agreed upon,
