RRF LOGO CONTEST WINNER!!!

Post by jingle_jangle »

We've got a new logo--

The winning designer is Mark Sanders, and the one I've selected is his excellent "postmark" design:

Thanks to Mark and to everyone else who submitted logo designs in this long-running contest. The topic logos were also excellent, although they would require lots and lots more bandwidth...

This logo will be featured on the 2007 RRF Calendars, available now at:

Oh. and Mark. Peter will contact you...the prizes are yours!

Thank you very much, I'm really touched and pleased to have been won. As I mentioned to Peter, it is a great honour to have my design sit in the window of such a friendly place, there really aren't many like it.

And I'm really looking forward to the price of bandwidth coming down so that we can see all the fantastic graphics entries being used.

It was a tough old year last year, but this is a bright little start to the new one. Thanks again.

Congrats Mark,

Yours is an excellent design. I love it. Many others were also very good. It must have been a very difficult choice for Paul and Peter.

Yup, congrats.
I liked that design from the start (and PW's creative improvements).

Well done Mark! Congratulations.

Peter and Paul, no wonder this took a while. After seeing all the great entries, this had to be one very tough decision.

Congratulation Mark!

Thanks to Paul for judging, and to Peter and RIC for their approval.

I really enjoyed all of the creative entries. There are many winners here IMO.
