Preliminary vote is HERE

The Contest
Beginning any time after two bells in time zone Romeo, the day after this thread is posted, until approximately midnight US Eastern time on October 12, 2014, entries for the logo contest will be accepted as jpg images sent via email to logo11 ("at" penturners.org). If you win, ideally we'd like your design in a vector file, but for the submission, we ask for a jpg no bigger than 800px in the largest dimension.
If more than 12 submissions are received, we will have a preliminary 5-day round of voting to select the top 12 logos. Then we'll have two rounds of member voting; a 5-day semi-final round to select the top 3, and a 5-day final round to select the winner. If a preliminary round is not necessary, the semi-final and final voting periods will be extended to 7 days each.
The names of the members submitting entries will not be revealed until after the final voting. So, DO NOT POST YOUR ENTRY ANYWHERE!!! Submit it by email as described below.
If you win, we may ask you to tweak your design somewhat to fit our needs, then it will become the official 11th anniversary IAP logo. It will appear on our annual run of limited edition coffee mugs, and other items we may choose to produce, and will be immortalized on the front page of our site for at least the month of February, 2015.

Welcome to what has become a very fun yearly tradition at the IAP: Our Anniversary Logo Design Contest. YOU design it, and the membership votes on it. The logo ends up on our Donation Drawing coffee mug, and graces the front page at our site.
We're looking for logos which:
- have clean, simple lines in black and white
- have proportions to fit on our coffee mugs
- have elements of pens, the IAP, penmaking, etc.
- likely contains the number "11" or "XI" or the word "eleven" or "eleventh" or some other commonly recognized symbol for 11. You get the idea.

If you don't hear from me within 24 hours of receipt, send me a PM. PLEASE include your IAP member name.
- If you submit more than one entry, please send them in separate emails. Once you submit an entry, please don't send a revision in a later email. Make sure what you submit is your final entry.
- Entries should be jpg images of your digitally created entry, no larger than 800px in either dimension.
- Only members of The IAP/penturners.org as of the date of this post are eligible.

- The logo you submit will be voted upon exactly as you submit it. We won't do any cleanup or tweaking until after the winner is selected.
- If your submission includes any elements which are not your own creation, you must have full rights to distribute the elements included with your design, as well as to convey ownership to Penturners.org, LLC.
- The logos need to be black and white, not gray scale or color. The reason for that is the design of the mugs, with the logo in clay relief, can accommodate only two "colors" (clay or no clay).
