The Final Five

The Northern Alliance Logo Contest has reached its final stage. Dozens of entries were submitted, and I must say I was knocked out by the quality of them all. Really, a fantastic job, all. I had no idea that much freelance graphic design talent lurked out there. Frankly, it's a little intimidating. All that professional quality talent working on the visual ID for a group of amateur political analysts on the radio. It just doesn't seem fair. In a perfect world there would be dozens of amateur political analysis radio shows competing for the design talents of each of these people. And somewhere along the line, somebody would be getting paid for something! A crazy dream? Yes! (This is radio we're talking about.)

Back in the real world, we have to deal with the conditions as they are, and that means deciding which entry is best among a slew of wonderful entries. After much acrimonious debate among the Northern Alliance members, we have winnowed the entries down to only five. Five staggering achievements in the world of radio logos. And we're looking for your help in deciding which is the best.

Click on over to the Northern Alliance Radio site , check 'em out, and vote your consciences.

(Of course, I don't want to bias the results in any way. I'm just saying if the sleek, moderne deluxe design by Amy Lopez doesn't win, it will be a crime against humanity.)
