images/news/windows.jpgOn Friday, Microsoft confirmed that it would launch a new logo for Windows 8, making the familiar "flag" look more like an actual window this time. There's been a ton of debate surrounding the new look, both pro and con. Now a third party company wants people to come up with their own idea for a new Windows 8 logo.
Logo creator company 99 Designs has launched, just for fun, a Windows 8 logo contest. The web site is currently accepting designs from anyone until 8 pm Eastern time tonight. A number of finalists will then be selected and they will continue to submit designs until a winner is found.
The nice thing about this contest is that the winner actually gets some money for his or her efforts; $295, to be exact. However, it is definitely not sanctioned by Microsoft.
A lot of the user-submitted Windows 8 logos for this contest are simply small variants on Microsoft's official logo. However, some are pretty creative.
