So some people thought this might be a good idea. I like the biweekly pattern, though, so that’s what you’ll get. I like the name, and hope the FCC will stick. I hope I can find some good photos for you all to ruin. I’ll alternate the contest and the winners every week.
Let’s start with a few off my computer.
#1 This is one of the family dogs. This was about a year ago.
#2 DOOM, unhappy there’s a camera taking his picture.
#3 This is a picture I took at some national park between Boulder and Taos.
I’ll pick the top few for each, but this is no dictatorship.
Thanks to all the contestants who submitted entries. We’ll put together a post to let you second guess us and laugh at your fellow commenters later. It was a close-run race and some of the people whose choice didn’t win are looking a little like Hillary’s fans after the election.
Glib enough for ya?
We’re working on getting a bunch of swag made with this guy’s mug plastered all over it. As soon as we take care of things like getting our liability limited and having a bank account to accept your cocaine and stripper sweat tainted dollar bills, we’ll be linking to the swag. Lafe, yours is on us.
We’re all really delighted with the community that’s coming together here at Glib Central. But it feels as if we’re still missing something. Oh, right, an official logo!
Way back in the advent of Glibertarians.com history–you know, a week or so ago–we posted an invitation for you to design our new logo. Some entries have come in, but because we’ve nearly doubled our members (!) since the original post, we thought we’d give more of you a chance to win glory, fame and…wait for it…a bumper sticker!
That’s right, glibs. Everyone who creates a serious entry–and we get to decide what’s a serious entry–will receive a Glibertarians.com bumper sticker which can be plastered on a bumper (not a euphemism), laptop case, or anywhere that’s unlikely to get you assaulted. Unless you’re into that kind of thing.
To make this feasible for as many of you as possible, The Founders have magnanimously decided to extend the entry deadline to Pi Day. Yep, you now have until noon (CST) on Tuesday, March 14, to get your fabulous (and perhaps, not so fabulous) entries in.
One word of caution: do not send zipped files or any executables. They will NOT be opened.
Check out the original post for the specs and pay attention to the legal stuff from our in-house counsel. Now go have some orphans sharpen your pencils and get to work!
_______________
N.B. Entries must be SFW since the logo will be used to promote our future non-profit.
Think you’ve got what it takes to design our logo? Think you can submit it to us at submit@glibertarians.com by Saturday, March 4th at noon? Then we have just the thing for you.
This man is an artistAnd this is his art
We want you guys to design what will be the face of Glibertarians…the icon on our twitter handle, even! So send us in your finished products in .tif, .jpg or even lowly .pdf (I’m not judging, SugarFree is) to us by the above date. Winning submissions (and some really awful ones for the lulz) will be revealed Tuesday, March 7th in the evening.
Now go out there and make us proud!
P.S.: If Chimpy McHalliburton can draw, you can too. So no excuses!
And now for the legal stuff… [NOTE: This differs from our normal Disclaimer]
By submitting your entry, you confirm that all intellectual property rights in it are yours and you grant to us an irrevocable and perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, fully-paid, royalty-free, worldwide license, by ourselves or with others, to use, copy, distribute, publicly perform, publicly display, print, publish, republish, excerpt (in whole or in part), reformat, translate, modify, revise and incorporate into other works, that submission and any works derived from that submission, in any form of media or expression, in the manner in which we choose.
Folks, in plain English that means you are submitting something original and yours – then it becomes ours. Completely ours. We will credit you as the artiste and laud you in these here pages. But we get to show it, sell it, make T-Shirts and mugs out of it (assuming our orphan workers are creative enough) or write it in the sky with fireworks – our choice. You still game? Good – send ‘em in and we’ll let you know if you are the lucky winner.
