Dear Guild members,
Do you have artistic, graphic or advertising talent that you would like to use to help out the Guild and win a prize?

We're looking for a new logo. Our old faithful books-dice-and-pencils logo has served us well, but
we're now looking to add a personal touch to our organization and we think you can help. We would
like to have a custom-made visual representation of the Guild that we can use on the site, the
web and print materials in order to promote ourselves and become even better.

The attributes of the Guild that we?d like to be able to emphasize are:

• Tabletop RPGs (as opposed to other forms of gaming)
  
• Replace this text with the next item
  
• You can add more items by adding lines that start with a
  
• Fun/Social
  
• Friendly
  
• Open
  
• Diversity, both in games and in members
  
• No pressure (events in a public forum)
  
• Free to join and attend
  

If you think you're up to this fun challenge, here are the rules:
