To MM: is my entry non compliant because of the missing R? for registered trademark?
Can I/should I resubmit? or will it still be judged on design as is?

Don't worry about it. We can add the missing R symbol if necessary, since Augie font contains it. If you want to take an extra few seconds and add it yourself and re-submit, that's fine, too

To celebrate Model Mayhem's 7th anniversary this month, we would like to update the main banner at the top of the site.  It's been a wonderful banner, but it's ready to buy some white shoes and move to Florida.

We want you to design the new banner.  Post your banners here to enter into the contest.  Here's what we're looking for.

1) The main banner will be 800 X 100 pixels.  Post banners of that size here.  However, we may wish for different sizes in the future, so please be prepared to show the image(s) used in creating the banner.  And be aware that the winner will need to provide a full-resolution source image in PSD or TIF format with layers intact, so don't flatten everything before saving, and hang on to those files!

2) Post your entries in this thread.  If you need help posting an image, please click here.

3) We want a design similar in composition to the existing one, with the MM logo on the left and visual interest oriented on the right. Entries must bear the circled R (®) trademark symbol with the MM logo. The MM logo must be the only text in the design.  The logo is in a font called "Augie" and it can be found here.

4) Make sure you have all the permissions you need as detailed in the Official Rules.  Don't use any image you don't have permission to use, including other people's photos, and make sure you have model releases for anyone depicted in the banner.

5) The deadline to enter is 5:00 PM Pacific Time on March 21, 2012.

6) The winner will receive, in additional to the insane bragging rights, 5 years of VIP Membership ($500 value).
