::Art Contest::

 NIRO is in need of new artwork to display on our website and on products for our new CafePress store. So we have decided to hold an art contest! We are requesting artwork of all kinds (CG, pencil, etc). New logo ideas, cute rat poses, phrases, etc.

 There will be three winners chosen and the prize will be one item from our new CafePress store not exceeding $25. You may order your own design on an item (T-shirt, Tote Bag, Mousepad, Mug, etc!) or another artist's design.

 By entering your design into the NIRO Art Contest (and should the artwork win) you agree to allow the club to use the design on the website, in the store, in brochures or other pamphlets, etc. You will be given credit on our website for your art.

 There is no limit to number of entries.

 Contest will begin on October 7, 2008 and end on November 18, 2008 for a total of six weeks to complete your project. Feel free to send us progress reports as you go along, if you like!

 Please email all entries to niroart@gmail.com

 Thank you for your participation, and good luck!
