OK... I can help out but need a couple of days as I have some traveling to do for my job. I searched through the link you provided and found this information from 2003 in this post
http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=348:
- button 80 x 31
- button 88 x 31
- mini-banner 156x60
- half-size banner 234x60
- full-size banner 468x60
Does this still hold true and if so, we can use this as the starting rules.
Here are some ideas for rules (borrowed from the freebsd project logo contest). They seem rough and tough but in today's world of lawsuits, they may be necessary.
* Rules
Purpose
The main logo symbol for the Coppermine Photo Gallery Project, which will be
used for the web site, software media labels, printed matter and so on. This list is not exhaustive.
Guidance
* The logo must be identifiable directly to the Project.
* The logo must be original work of the submitter.
* The logo should be usable in monochrome and color media,
including limited colors (say 2 or 3 colors).
* The logo must not exploit or offend anyone's sex, race,
religion, morality, culture, nor be salacious or
pornographic..
Submission deadline
? <insert date here>
Participation
The competition is open to all designers, both professional
and non-professional. Participation can only take place in a
private personal capacity.
Prize
The undying gratitude of the Coppermine Photo Gallery community
Submission format
Each submission should include the following information and
should be sent to <insert link here>:
* JPEG, GIF or PNG thumbnail with a resolution of <insert dpi here>.
* Design concept / description.
* Submitter's full name, email address.
Copyright assignment
The Coppermine Photo Gallery Project will acquire ownership of the winning
logo by assignment of copyright, and the winning designer will
disclaim any trademarks and without limitation all other
rights related to the design.
By submitting a logo for entry in the competition, the
designer acknowledges that he/she is the person that made the
logo and is its rightful owner and reliquishes all rights subject to the above
statement.
The designer also certifies that the logo does not infringe
upon the rights of any third party and that it does not
violate any copyright.
Compensation
* Designs will not be returned to the designers.
* No responsibility can be accepted for entries that are lost,
delayed or damaged.
* Any submissions which does not satisfy the above "submission
format" will be ignored without any warning.
In my opinion, I think the person submitting the logo should be a user of CPG and supply a link to their gallery. What do you think? Yes they can download and set up a gallery just for this contest but at least they used the product.
Comments, additions and rejections?
Cheers,
Billy
