RedBull Creation Contest
RedBull visited the lab this week and dropped off some information and an invitation to join in on their hackerspace challenge. A few lab members are already thinking up great projects as an entry. If you are interested in participating contact Dave E. or Kyle K. The deadline is the 24th of April, and then the next round takes place in New York City. Note - it's best to keep communications on the members only mailing list when it comes to planning and development. We love our neighbors in Richmond and DC but in the spirit of competition..
Logo Contest
The Lab has entered it's second year as of January 1st and while we've got all the trappings of a good hackerspace we're still missing one key component: a logo! We've had a few internal goes of hacking around with concepts but never set down and picked a deadline to vote on the options members have come up with. So we're going to throw a logo competition and the prize, of course, is that we get a free logo and thank you very much for it. The contest is open to members and non-members alike. The "rules" are as follows:
Submission Format:
- A vector format (SVG, AI, etc) *
- Optionally: An example of the logo in use (t-shirt mockup, desktop,
web page, etc)
*: If you don't have a tool that can produce a vector format send in a
high-res lossless format but keep in mind that it will likely need to
be converted to a vector format at some point so keep the "grungy"
photoshop filters to a minimum.
How to Submit: Email submissions to 757Labs@gmail.com.
Deadline: March 15th (the Ides!)
We know we've got some creative members and lurkers so we're looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with.
