Registry Logo Redesign Contest! Win an iPod or a Wii!
Go ahead, take a look at the upper left corner of our beloved Registry website. If you're like us, you're probably thinking the black book with the ghostly cell-gear and the "Catalog" title is looking a little outdated. Ok, more than a little outdated. We couldn't agree with you more, and we think you could do a much better job. So, we want to invite you to redesign the Registry logo.
Sound cool? Think about how you could represent the concept of the Registry of Standard Biological Parts in an enticing, cool, sleek, slick, shiny, poppy, sciency, nerdy, sexy, accurate, hip new way. Post a design on this page for the community to see and comment on and make suggestions for tweaks and revisions. If everyone likes the final version, we'll use it, highlighting your creative genius for the entire Synthetic Biology community to see. And as if the glory isn't a good enough motivation, we're also going to give you a brand new Apple iPod (8gb Nano or 80gb video) or Nintendo Wii! (Just think about how fun a Wii would be in lab! :)
Details
The mission of the Registry is to collect and provide standardized, reliable biological parts to enable synthetic biologists to design and construct biological machines. Parts are defined as bits of DNA that have been designed (and then often constructed) to have a particular biological function with defined inputs and outputs. The Registry acts as a clearinghouse for these parts as well as the biological devices and systems that are built from these parts.
The new logo should embody and convey the purpose of the Registry.
