We'll announce an upload date and link prior to uploading.
After voting all of the entries will be added to the official DVXFest leader pool.

Same rules and conditions as before.

Subject: DVXFest Leaders

Animated logo leaders which will appear opening dvxuser.com DVXFest entries.

The content of the leader will be a "dvxuser" logo of the user's design and the following text: "Official DVXFest Participant". There are no font or color restrictions for the logo or the additional text.

All CGIFest entries will be added to the current pool for selection by DVXFest entrants to use as leaders. For the 3 winners... to be determined... Bragging rights at least...
