  Earlier this week, the DataPortability WorkGroup was sent a Cease and Desist order by Red Hat to stop using their logo. Opting to take the high road, Chris Saad and the crew decided to hold a logo contest to rebrand the DataPortability WorkGroup. To show our support and to get the prize bandwagon moving, Jive was the first to donate a prize, which was an iPhone. Since then, the prize list has grown to an impressivly long list of goodies, such as:

 

 

We believe in the work that the DataPortability WorkGroup is doing and are proud to support their rebranding effort. If you would like to see the logo submissions, check out their Flickr pool. The deadline for submissions is March 11, 2008.

 

Good luck!

Gotta love these type of contests where you actually get more than you expect. I guess all of this is a part of marketing, eh?

The red circle with a slash through it is backwards. You've actually got a scandinavian slashed vowel or "zero" or mathematics "empty" symbol where I think you meant to use a "not permitted" or "no" symbol. It's a classic semiotic mistake illustrators make when creating information designs. Most people don't notice or realize the difference though. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_symbol
