Okay the prize isn't going to get any designers ready to go creative but where do you get your figures from. And anyone that needs to go University for 6 years to make a logo are idiots, if you can't make a logo after 1 year of being taught by "professional" it's a safe bet your going to waste another 5 years if you carry on. Personally i wouldn't do it for that much but if you look at from the contest holders point of view he could say $60 to the winner and no 2nd or 3rd. I think you find alot of young designers would jump at this, not only for the prize but would help build portfolio up, if they don't win they can still add it and explain it was for a contest.

Why should a self-respected logo designer even consider such "offer". Logo design takes education at least 6 years in University as a designer, typography classes x 4 ($650 per credit hour), design theory class x2 ($650 credit hour). $30 First prize nowadays would hardly even by a latte. Of course..... if you call a logo something from a "clip art book" then that's what you'll get for that prize. No self respected, educated and experienced designer would work for that much. “First Place: $30 Amazon Gift Card
