Hi all,

I hope this is a proper subforum for this, if no, please move this thread appropriately

What is needed?
A Free and Open-Source benchmarking & comparison program, the Phoronix Test Suite, is looking for a new logo. If you're an artista, please help us out and submit an entry here (click)!

What is the Phoronix Test Suite?
The Phoronix Test Suite is the most comprehensive testing and benchmarking platform available for Linux and is designed to carry out qualitative and quantitative benchmarks in a clean, reproducible, and easy-to-use manner. This software is based upon the internal tools and extensive Linux benchmarking work done by Phoronix since 2004, with input from tier-one computer hardware vendors. This software is open-source and licensed under the GNU GPLv3 and consists of a lightweight core (pts-core) with each benchmark consisting of an XML-based profile with related utility scripts. The process from the benchmark installation, to the actual benchmarking, to the parsing of important hardware and software components is heavily automated and completely repeatable, asking users only for confirmation of actions.

The Phoronix Test Suite can be used for simply comparing your computer's performance with your friends and co-workers or can also be used at your company for internal quality assurance purposes under Linux. Results from the Phoronix Test Suite are displayed in a results viewer with optional support for uploading them to PTS Global. PTS Global allows you to browse all uploaded results, search these results (coming soon), and comparing other results against your own system.

Prize
$100 USD (or computer hardware, your choice, if located within the US).

Just one day left to submit! Do it now if you were waiting.

And, thanks for listening

I am pleased to announce that JA_SAM and Gimper have won the contest. Due to the very close competition between all of them, JA_SAM was chosen as the winner with the below graphic:



Gimper was chosen as the runner-up with his logo.



Once again, thanks to everyone who submitted a design and there were some really great graphics among them!

It's a very well designed logo.

The runner-up logo isn't showing for me.

Hi Samrao here
The logo is very good and the graphics are also very good but i insist if you need more intersting and stylish logo you can copy from the games logo like Gta vice city ,rockstar entertainment etc.

You wouldn't wanna do that for copyrights reasons.
