IndianaFIRST Logo Contest
 
IndianaFIRST is seeking a new design for our logo, and decided at a meeting a few weeks ago to open the process up to anyone who wishes to submit one.

If you have a great idea for a logo, submit it to logo@indianafirst.org. More information about submission guidlines and criteria are available at http://www.indianafirst.org/about/logo-contest/

The deadline for submissions is November 21st and voting will begin on November 22nd.

If you have any questions feel free to PM me or contact webmaster@indianafirst.org

I was bored after school today...

This might conflict with FIRST's logo usage policies (I'll have to go look), so this is just a conceptual idea.

EDIT: This isn't a formal entry at this point.

Yea, it'd be cool if you could post the acceptable entries on the INfirst site. Who's choosing it? Can people vote for what they like best? (which doesn't necessarily have to determine the winner).
I too like the current one, but I'm sure there will be some neat entries.

Here are my submissions, I wasn't sure what "look" you were going for. I like the old logo so I took the new FIRST logo and gave it that look.

Voting will take place in a few weeks, It will be open to the public. And the final decision will be made by IndianaFIRST

Please see this page for instructions on submitting logos:
http://www.indianafirst.org/about/logo-contest/

Posting them on here as attachments isn't a great idea because it is going to unnecisarily tax ChiefDelphi's bandwidth (i know the site isn't that busy but...)


Keep the logos coming though, i am liking what i've seen so far!

Not trying to cause any trouble, since there are some very creative ideas here, but on the FIRST web site under FIRST Logo Standards (http://www.usfirst.org/4vol/resource...tandards_Q.pdf)

it says:

Do not change or modify the logos. The lettering is specifically designed and cannot be recreated by any conventional typesetting methods. Use only the provided appropriate master files.

Do not distort or in any way change the logo proportions.

Do not change the logo colors.

Do not place our logos within any graphic shapes.

I don't know how particular they are about this, so caveat emptor

If that's the case Indiana FIRST has broken that rule a long time ago with their old logo design.

Wouldn't those just apply to FIRST's trademarked logos? I never really got the impression that their logo standards were meant for other logos that were inspired by (but different from) the original.

Those standards apply in all cases. Just as you coudn't, say, make a logo for your company, SEABS, that looks like that of SEARS, you can't make alterations to the trademark protected FIRST logo without risking legal action.

More appropriately, you can make any changes you'd like in defiance of those regulations and it is FIRST's responsibility to challenge them so as to maintain trademark protection, as you could do in the example above. You can be sure that Sears would have something to say about it. Similarly, I'm sure FIRST retains legal counsel who would, perhaps begrudgingly, step in if their logo is being prominently misused.

Further, FIRST's rules dictate that the name IndianaFIRST be absent from any logo the organization adopts. Keep that in mind. Is the official nomenclature IndianaFIRST or Indiana FIRST, in any case? I'd question the suitability of the former.

The single caveat is that you may be able to distort their logo in parody. I don't imagine that Indiana FIRST wants to be considered such, however.
