Rocky Mountain Chronicle’s Design Fort Collins Logo Contest
March 17th, 2008 admin
Think you can do better than this:
Then put your pixels where your mouth is in The Rocky Mountain Chronicle’s Logo Redesign Contest.
The city of Fort Collins paid $80,000 to a Tennessee-based marketing firm to come up with a new “brand” for our community, including a fresh logo and slogan, “where renewal is a way of life.” The product is now temporarily shelved, and we’ve heard people complain that the new package would better portray some type of feminine sanitary product than a city.
We think Chronicle readers can do better, so we’re launching our own logo and tagline REDESIGN CONTEST.We’re looking for the entertaining and the irreverent, the cynical and the sublime: you know, kind of like us.
Logos can be in any medium (drawings, dioramas, graffiti art, tattoos, etc.) and not-so-artsy wordsmiths can send us tagline and slogan ideas.
We’ll accept submissions through April 3 and announce winners in our April 17 issue. Contestants can send their designs and ideas to fclogo@rmchronicle.comThis email address is being protected from spam bots, you need Javascript enabled to view it or bring them by Chronicle HQ at 316 W. Mountain Ave. in Fort Collins. Entries will be judged by Chronicle staff.
Winners will get $80,000 and a trip to Tennessee (just kidding).
The winners actually get 25 t-shirts printed by Go West with their designs and taglines on them along with gift certificates to the Matter Bookstore and Fish Restaurant.

I have mine in the works. Looking forward to seeing what else people come up with.
