9 candidates.

That is a surprise, with a generous bounty like this one, you'd expect most users would at least give it a go.

Is there a minimum amount of entries you'll accept, or a set end date?

K.

[Balthazar]

I'm waiting for 30-40 candidates... There is no precise date limit.

[Balthazar]

13 candidates.

14 candidates.

[Bitinvestor]

Okay, I have a question. I really like the current logo as it is shown here:

http://cryptocoinexplorer.com/

It's easily the best logo on that page and it will be hard to beat. Why do we need another one? 

[Balthazar]

Unfortunately, current logo is licensed only for non-commercial purposes. But Novacoin is a free and open-source project, so such limitations it's not good. We should replace it with the new one without any licensing limitations.

P.S. 15 candidates.
