2. Overview (optional reading)

The logo canvas is composed of several sections:

1. Information Header
2. Main Display Area
3. Flat Color Display Area
4. Black & White Display Area
5. Color Boxes

Information Header - This is the header at the top of the canvas. It's used mainly to display three things: the name of the client/organization requesting the design, the forum username of the designer, and the version number for the design being submitted.

Main Display Area - This is the large blank section on the left side of the canvas. It's used to hold one or two color-variations of a single design. The design placed here should be presented in full color, with all effects (if any) intact.

Flat Color Display Area - This is the small blank section on the top right of the canvas. It's used to display a flat (non-gradient) version of the design contained in the main display area.

Black & White Display Area - This is the other small blank section on the right side of the canvas. It's used to display a black & white version of the design found in the flat color display area.

Color Boxes - These are the small boxes on the lower-right of the canvas. They're there to display the colors being used in the design; not the gradients, just the colors. If PMS colors are used in the design, then their names should be written next to the colors, in place of PMS 000.

• Every logo must be presented using the DesignContest.net logo canvas
• Changing the design of the canvas in any way is strictly forbiden
• Removing text from the header of the canvas is not allowed

This may be the old canvas. please find the link to the new canvas here http://www.designcontest.com/forum/d...go-canvas.html

as far as unlead I'm not familiar with it. Is it Vector based? if it's not then I wouldn't use it.
If I have time I'll look up unlead. for now to be on the safe side I'd say not use it.

I amm new here, but I look forward to one day becoming an Elite Designer!

i am trying to figure out how this template works. I am using Corel Software Essentials 4. Can I just open it in that and fit it to size when entering my logo? Also is vector imaging a file type?
