To mark the 40th anniversary of Wakefield RISC OS Computer Club in April,
a competition is being held to try and find a worthy replacement for the familiar Club logo. The competition is open to ALL, including non-members,
with no exclusions.
The current logo, based on the green Acorn company logo, first appeared in
the clubs newsletter in May 1993 as a fairly simple flat two-dimensional graphic. This was replaced by a shaded 3D version in August 1993, and
has changed little ever since, mainly to reflect our change of name to the current one in January 2002. It has served well, but is now very much
rooted in the past and does not really reflect the current state of the
market nor the clubs activities.
Entries can be submitted in any suitable bitmap format, such as a Sprite,
JPEG, GIF and PNG. Vector art versions can be accepted in either Draw or Artworks format. If the original is created in any other vector format
then exporting it as a bitmap would be the best option for submission. We
are not necessarily looking for a highly polished and ready-to-use logo -
its the basic design that is important. If we do find a suitable
replacement, then if necessary it would be redrawn to a high standard in
vector format.
The club name is an integral part of the current logo, i.e. is embedded
within the actual design. However, in order to allow more flexibility and creativity this is not a strict requirement of the new logo, but the name
must appear somewhere.
The prize value is 50 GBP plus a years free membership (or extension to
an existing membership subscription), and of course the glory of having
your design win!
Entries should be submitted to
logo2023@wrocc.org.uk by 22nd April 2023
(the date of the Wakefield show). The existing logo can be seen on the
clubs web site at www.wrocc.org.uk
