<p>I like to have some fun with keeping the winner unknown until the distribution event (Sept 26 Critical Mass) so would appreciate some discretion.</p> Voting is live!

<p>I like that snowflake, although the Bike Winter Logo would be better, imo. Then the url would be at the top, small, and at the bottom, larger? I will have to mess with it.

<p></p>
<p>Though the entire image (including the letters) was drawn in pencil and so there are tiny "irregularities" everywhere that are a part of the hand-drawn style. The intention was to avoid computer fonts and the rigid look of clip-art, computer filters and etc. The design is all "a little funky" and original to the artists hand; there are no clean straight baselines to any of the text; instead they rumble along. So hope this looks more balanced.</p>

I just wanted to throw it out here in case anyone wants to contribute to it, or whatever. Its totally not finished at all but I am liking it so much, and am bad at deadlines! Any encouragement, critique, suggestions welcome. Also, I was thinking I would adda white snowflake over the text (in place of a crown) or a simple image of a winter hat or balaclava. Then below either a bike or a critter of some sort on a bike, maybe an English bulldog? Again totally open for suggestions! Thanks!! Oh and should it be 2014-15? </p>
