Dedicated readers know that ever since the launch of FPPad.com, I’ve had a plain-text banner at the top of the website. Two-and-a-half years and 400+ posts later, it’s time to get a real logo; it appears FPPad.com will be staying around for quite a while!
To solve my logo deficiency, I launched a logo design contest at 99designs.com. I’ve known about 99designs for several years, and in fact, Matt Abar of FinFolio used 99designs to source his company’s logo. Do you like that logo?
My contest runs through next Tuesday, though the “open” period ends this Friday before I must choose six designers for the second stage. The winner gets $495 (minus 99designs’ fee), so if you’re graphically inclined, or know someone who could use some cash before Christmas, spread the word.
