The World Science Fiction Society has announced a contest to design an official logo for the Hugo Awards.

Although the rocket atop the Hugo Award has been one of the most visible signs of excellence in science fiction and fantasy for more than fifty years, there has never been an official logo to designate works as Hugo Award nominees or winners.

The winning designer will receive $500, a trophy featuring their design, membership to an upcoming Worldcon, and lots of other goodies. (The rules also say that the artist will have the right to use the design themselves, which strikes me as a little odd for an official logo, but whatever.)

Full submission guidelines are here. Submit the winning design and become the envy of geeks the world over!
