I realize, if you're looking for design its most advantageous to have a contest because you get to see many styles and pick the best of the bunch.

First let me say, I too participate in these types of contests.. even when the prizes arent that big because sometimes its just worth it to be in the mix however, I say this.... If you win this contest, and an in print magazine uses it, its worth way more than $100 and some credit. You should get the credit anyways... that should be a given.

Contests are cool but make it worth the designers while. Not to mention, most magazines have VERY simple logos.. usually just normal fonts in white/black. Good luck with the contest =)

I agree that $100 isnt the biggest payout. But I think the winner will be very happy with the credit and the relationship that will come out of it. Like you said.. it's not that very hard of a design.. its really quite simple.. its just that we want to see all kinds of different approaches.. which is what contests are great for.
