Starting Qafoo logo contest

We are starting a logo contest for Qafoo now, and you can win 350€ (~450$) in it!

As announced earlier Manuel, Toby and me are currently in the process of founding Qafoo, a company, which will provide cosulting around the quality lifecycle of PHP applications. We already discussed the name and the tagline of the company publicly in our blogs and started a twtpoll to see which tagline you'd like most.

Based on the poll and our own preferences we decided for the tagline:

A passion for software quality.

So, now, it is time to start a logo and business card contest. We have chosen the platform 12designers. Our expectations for the logo are:

Expectations

Expectations for the logo:

  • The subject of the company is consulting on "the quality lifecycle of PHP applications".
