In the highly competitive horse racing world, a new race is born! Organizers hope that within a few years, this event will be seen as must on the West Coast. You have to come up with a logo for the Golden Gate Stakes, to be held on March 5th, 2017, at the Golden Gate Fields.
- Include the name, the date, and the location of the event in your logo.
-
Your entry should convey that it is a horse race.
DEADLINE: October 24th, 11:59AM Eastern Time
Failure to follow the guidelines could result in your entry being inadvertently (or intentionally) excluded from judging.
Entries must be emailed to logolympiad (@) gmail (dot) com prior to the set deadline. Subject line should be the event number (Ex: Event 1). Once you submit your entry, it is considered final.
Entries must be submitted as .jpg, .gif or .png formats. The file name format of the submission is: event#_yourusername.extension (Ex: event1_pollux.png). The file must be attached to your email.
All final entries must be 800x600 pixels with at least 70 pixels of white space at the bottom of the image. This means that your presentation has to fit in a 800x530 pixels window (800 pixels wide by 530 pixels high). I will NOT re-size entries that are not properly done, so make sure it's right.
The background of the entries should be solid white, unless otherwise specified. You must not use gradients, shadows, patterns, lines, etc. on your background.
Do not add any text or images to your submission, unless otherwise specified. Do not add the team name, location, the entry number, the event type, etc.
Do not include your name or any other personal identifiers on your submission. Also, do not watermark your work. I will add a watermark to each entry before they get posted for judging. I will also provide each entry with a number. You are expected to keep the identity of your entry anonymous until the end of the event. If you think you know the identity of another designer, keep it to yourself. Anyone who exposes the identity of themselves or anyone else will be DQ'd.
You should receive an automatic reply once you submit your entry. If you don’t receive one, please PM me directly. If I see an issue with the format of your submission, I will contact you giving you a chance to resubmit. I will NOT, however, comment on the content of the submission.
