Hello Steem Community,
The Curie community is glad to announce a second logo design contest, for its newly-developed, soon-to-be-implemented curation frontend, and general usage.
Who/What is Curie and What Do They Do?
A little backstory, the name “Curie” was suggested by one of our curators, inspired by the works of both Marie Curie and Pierre Curie.
“The most surprising (or maybe not) discovery in researching about great minds is that behind every great success is mostly luck. There’s obviously a lot of effort involved, but there are many who are just as smart and work just as hard, never quite had the luck.”
- One of our Curators, on the inspiration behind the choice of “Curie.”
@Curie “is a community witness and a meritocratic community curation project… with an absolute commitment to meritocracy and transparency with an aspiration towards zero corruption.” Read Whitepaper.
We would not want to limit the creativity of the designers, but imperatively designers should go through the whitepaper (linked above) to get in-depth knowledge on what Curie is about. Let it dictate the concept.
However, it is very important to note that logo has to be in DIGITAL ART format, CIRCULAR and FULL forms – ideal for use as display picture and on posts, respectively.
