McDuck 0 #1 November 26, 2004 Our very own The Brander has proven yet again that talent in the ranks of the founding members of Sonic Beef is...well, RANK(ing). He has come up with a logo for Sonic Beef that we are truly fond of. Here's the dilemma: The prizes for this contest are for YOU, the above-average members (and potential FUTURE members) of Sonic Beef. We founding members don't want to flaunt our own talents and scarf up all the scrumptious prizes. Sure, when faced with no other choices for logo ideas, we'll go with our own kick-ass design, but we'd rather prove to the world what we already know: our membership is talented in more areas than beer swilling, gullet-stuffing and long-distance urination contests. So here's the plan: We're giving our current membership, and any potential members who sign up for a free account on Sonic Beef.com, the chance to win those prizes by designing a logo (that will be universally adopted by all current and future members) we can all be proud of and sport proudly on flags, banners, hats, t-shirts and boxer shorts. But knowing SOME of our members, we'd better opt for the darker colored boxers. The deadline for this project to be submitted for founding member consensus and approval is December 20th, 2004. Yes, I know the holiday season is upon us, but you can't tell me that you aren't going to have two hours of non-inebriated, comatose or otherwise occupied time between now and then. So let's see what you've got. Pass the word and tell all your friends about this contest. The prizes are still 1) a Sonic Beef winter beanie with your BEEF name embroidered on it; 2) a Sonic Beef t-shirt with your logo gracing the back and a smaller version in front on the left breast pocket area; 3)your BEEF fitted cap, if you haven't already gotten one yourself. If you have, we'll come up with a third prize that will approximate a value equal to the weight of an elephant on the moon...or something actually worth your time and effort. Here's the original idea of what we're loking for: We would like to have a comical looking cow, legs flailing straight up at an obscene angle (think belly-flying gelatin-cow) with a Peter Griffin (from Family Guy) side-smirk, goggles and rig. Maybe some of those squiggly movement lines showing the direction of the plummet. No copyright protected images please, only original artwork. If we have no other submissions by 12/20/04 to choose from, The Brander's logo will be the one we roll with and the prizes become property of the State, to be doled out to needy simians in third world countries. Chapter leaders and other remote members, chime in here to let people know who and where you are so they can seek you out for membership and logo ideas. Now get out there and show us what you're workin' with.Kevin - Sonic Beef #5 - OrFun #28 "I never take myself too seriously, 'cuz everybody know fat birds don't fly." - FLC Online communities: proof that people never mature much past high school.

McDuck 0 #4 November 27, 2004 You can always email them to me. PM me and I'll send you the email address to send the picture to. I'd hate to exclude a picture because you couldn't post it here. Of course, you coudl always register for a free account at Sonic Beef.com and add it to the gallery with your name on it. I'll leave that choice up to you.

McDuck 0 #9 November 30, 2004 You know, you don't have to be a current member to submit a picture and wind up winning the prizes. In fact, for every person who submits a reasonable entry, one that looks like there was more than 5-10 minutes worth of effort put into it, we'll give you a name and postpone the two primary requirements for membership (jumping and partying with an SB member) until such time as you meet up with a fully initiated member. So come on! Let's see those talents shine! Sonic Beef is counting on you.
