Hi everybody, further to my last post about the photography competition, and inspired by recent suggestions about pin badges (thanks Steve Jones and Buffaloskinner!) we're going to have a competition to redesign the SecretLeeds logo too BriefSend us a logo design (or designs) which you think captures the essence of SecretLeeds. Please note that we're mostly interested in great ideas, rather than checking out your graphic design skills (though if you have those too that's brilliant). If it's a simple sketch of a concept with some notes explaining it that's totally fine. The logo does need to feature the name SecretLeeds (note the capitals and spacing used - please stick to that format).The winning design will be used as the new logo for SecretLeeds! Submitted designs should be in JPG, PNG, PSD, EPS or SVG formats. Image formats should be at least 2000px, although if you can send it as a scalable vector graphic (EPS or SVG) that's even better. You may also want to think about supplying some variations on your design, so that it can fit into different spaces effectively (a long thin landscape one and a stacked squarer version, for example).If you have any questions please post them in this thread and I'll do my best to answer them promptly. Please don't use this thread to post your competition entries, because they won't be big enough and given the issues the site has handling image uploads at the moment, they probably won't appear anyway!How to enterAll submissions should be sent to info@secretleeds.com by 5pm on Monday 18th February.The winners will be announced at the SecretLeeds 6th Birthday Party, on 22nd February at The Victoria Hotel, Great George Street, Leeds. Details will also be posted on the website shortly afterwards.Terms and conditionsYou must be the originator of the submitted design concept, and hold the intellectual property (IP) rights to any images, concepts, or text used in the design, or have the rights holder's express written permission to use their IP in the SecretLeeds logo. You must assign SecretLeeds all IP rights to the logo and the right to use the logo exclusively and without accreditation. SecretLeeds reserves the right to tweak, amend, redesign or simply nick your idea wholesale and use it however we see fit - we'll still give you full accreditation though, because it's all about the ideas. You can't use this competition to screw SecretLeeds over in any way, because (a) that would not be cool, and (b) we don't have any cash to sort out a legal wrangle over a new logo. So just be cool everybody Thanks for your time, and I look forward to checking out your responses!
