Thanks everyone for taking on this project over the holidays!

LogoTournament has been especially nice to me over the years and I expect this tournament to be no less spectacular.

Please leave comments with any questions - I can't wait to see what comes out of this

PLEASE take a look at the Style Inspirations I selected to guide you in your logo creation! I gave them quite a bit of thought

The FORUM was a place where the Greeks held the senate and other important political and business gatherings.

I want to explain my comments about replacing the U with a V - if you look at historical buildings where lettering is etched in marble or granite, the letter U shows up often as the letter V ...

If you do something that looks like stone carved logo, this would be appropriate use of switching the letters. If not it doesn't make nearly as much sense.

I'm sorry I wasn't more clear.

ALSO I want to convey a sense of OLD STABILITY. So logos that look like a century old (or much more) will evokee the vibe that we're looking for
