Ada Rebirth - The Ada Mascot Competition

Ada Rebirth - The Ada Mascot Competition

[David Botton]

http://www.gnoga.com/rebirth.html

As part of my work on the building the business side of Gnoga to advocate Ada to the applications market, I realized that there is not a single modern slick Ada mascot. So, as I always do, I put my time and money where my mouth is :)

I am putting in the first $200us towards the prize, if others would like to show they advocate Ada with something towards the prize please e-mail me - david@botton.com for details of how to contribute (check http://www.gnoga.com/rebirth for current prize level)

Rules:
1.	All submissions must be original and you agree are public domain on submission
2.	It must be a "being", man, animal, machine or other
3.	Ideally expresses something powerful, sleek and precise, but not a requirement to be considered. (Augusta Ada King, Countess of Lovelace and the Ada Language would be places for ideas)
4.	It should be "vector art" or something that can be traced (and so pixel dense enough) for vectors later to be used in various media formats.
5.	Not a requirement, but line art is always positive or something that can easily be used with many color schemes.
6.	Deadline - Feb 14, 2015 - Valentines Day in honor of the Lady Lovelace :)
7.	Winner to be announced on Friday, Feb 27 2015
8.	A panel of judges will be selected and announced and submissions will be posted for public comments from Feb 15-27 at http://www.gnoga.com/rebirth.html
9.	Send submissions by e-mail to david@botton.com
