'''This is a proposal under discussion, related to [[Task:Maemo brand]]'''. You can help deciding whether the contest is appropriate, and in which terms.
As the Maemo brand is being [[Task:Maemo brand|redefined]], maemo.org becomes clearly ''the space of collaboration of the Maemo community, organized around open source tools and ways of working''. A new "maemo.org" logo defined and produced by the community will embody the new values. Once selected, it will become the logo used in *.maemo.org and it will inspire a new web layout to be implemented this year.

Maemo.org_logo_contest_<your username>[_<entry number>].png
+
-
and enter this into the summary:
+

+
-
# After the logo has been uploaded, the user should then add their submission to the bottom of [[maemo.org logo contest submissions]] in this format:
+
-
<pre>
+
-
=== <your username> ===
+
-
+
-
[[Image:Maemo.org_logo_contest_<your username>.png]]
+
-
</pre>
+
-
or use the template created to do this for you:
+
-
<pre>

-
{{Logo entry|<your username>}}
+
-
</pre>
+
-
[[Maemo.org_logo_contest_submissions|For example]], [[User:GeneralAntilles]]'s submission would be uploaded here: [[:Image:Maemo.org_logo_contest_GeneralAntilles.png]], and his entry would look like:

-
<pre>
+
-
{{Logo entry|GeneralAntilles}}
+
-
</pre>
+
-
 
+
-
Users submitting several entries should use a gallery, like this:
+
-
<pre>
+
-
 
+
-
=== username ===
+
-
 
+
-
<gallery widths="300px" perrow="3">
+

+
-
Image:Maemo.org_logo_contest_[username]_3.png|Caption 3
+
-
</gallery>
+
-
</pre>
+
-

-
which will result in something like this:
