Fermi Linux Logo Contest
Everything below this line is just left in for historical reasons
This time around, we're going to let the Fermi Linux community design
the logo. So you, yes you, have a chance at fame and fortune by designing the
next Fermi Linux Logo. How much fame? We don't really know, but
certainly at least a bit more than you currently have. How much fortune?
A $30 Think Geek Certificate, a stack of Writeable CD's, and a USB Thumb drive.

scale well, please submit it with various sizes. For the smaller sizes,
it should be at most 48 pixels, either width or height. For the larger sizes, it should be
at least 300 pixels, either width or height.
