Hi, Ruby Visual Identity Team (URL:http://rubyidentity.org/) did great works to improve the online presence of Ruby, and as a result, the Ruby logo kit ( URL:http://rubyidentity.org/ruby-logo-kit.zip) is avaiable now. But it’s not well known as a logo that represent the programming language Ruby itself. We need an official Ruby logo to promote Ruby, so we open a contest to select it. URL:http://www.ruby-assn.org/logo-contest.html.en Requirements - it must be easily recognizable as the Ruby logo - it must look good in low resolution and in grayscale - works both with and without text `Ruby' (can be ignored if the text `Ruby’ is part of the logo) - you may use the Ruby logo kit (\) How to submit Please mail your logo to ruby-logo(at)[ruby-lang.org](http://ruby-lang.org). You should include the following information to it. - your full name - your e-mail address Entries should be submitted in both a vector and raster format. acceptable vector formats + Encupsulated PostScript (_.eps) + Adobe Illustrator (_.ai) acceptable raster formats (no larger than 200 x 200 pixels) + Portable Network Graphics (_.png) + Graphics Interchange Format (_.gif) + Joint Photographic Experts Group (\*.jpg) Fonts should be embedded into the image file.
