Got my water bill today and saw that Manhattan Airport is having a logo contest. Has to be done by May 15. First prize is two round trip tickets from Manhattan to KC or Denver. Runner up is $150 apple bucks  :confused:

if any of the submissions have an apple in them...they should be crumpled up immediately.


I'm actually surprised that MHK isn't going to simply hire New Boston Creative or S & L Design to bid and head up this project.

Logo contests, in general, are bad for the graphic design business imho. IT's good for up and comer's but for established firms...they are killer to the bottom line. It takes business away.

This is a real risk...and puts the airport in a corner if all the submissions are crap...and they could be if the only people they are notifying about this contest are in a small region. If the request branch out statewide...there could be some really fine work submitted. But in a water bill? it'll be a local.


Hope this works.

Yeah I like dr00d's.  He's got a flying apple/heart thingy that looks just like an airplane.  I think it's genius.

I think the logo needs to involve Air Force 1 flying over the Little Apple.
