did you get my entry?
maybe i'm a little confused on this. were you looking for just a logo for the top of the board here or an overall site emblem?? i did my entry based on it fitting in the area above in the color scheme of the board and it doesn't look like that was a consideration in your decision for top 5.
edit:
"We are trying to come up with a logo for the site. At this time we are not allowed to use any GM copyrighted logo, so please try to keep them out of your design. The logo will be displayed at approximately 250 pixels wide x 100 pixels high, so test your designs at that size. Please submit your designs in .jpg or .gif format, and keep them to no more than two colors plus a background. The designs will be printed on either white or light gray t-shirts, so plan accordingly.
Please submit your original designs to me via e-mail.
The last day to submit designs is September 10, 2004. On September 18, 2004 we will post a poll in the Lounge with our choice of the five cleanest designs. Voting will end on Setember 24, 2004. The winner will be posted on September 25, 2004. The winner will receive a free t-shirt with his/her logo on it.

nevermind, i found this. I was just making something to fill the banner area up top. Since you're looking for something for a t-shirt as well, I can definitely see why my design wouldn't fit the bill.
ah well, if anyone wants to see mine, here it is mocked into the top of the page:
for my vote, i definitely like the firebird melting into the bowtie idea. I think that's pretty damn cool and with a little more polish, it would look stellar on a tshirt, etc 8)
