Good ideas, Anthony. I would add that there should probably be 2 phases of voting. In both phases, everyone gets 1 vote. In phase 1, votes for logos that are of the same/cloned base layout are aggregated. So, for example, say there's a text logo that says web2py and is represented in 3 clones:

I'm not sure it's necessary to have the two phases. Something like approval voting or a ranking-based system should handle the clones automatically (i.e., the best clone within the best clone set should come out on top). Trying to implement an explicit clone-voting phase introduces the problem of

Clearly JL knows a lot more about voting methods than I do. I defer to his greater knowledge. Nevertheless, I still think this should go 2 rounds, assuming some higher power doesn't step in and choose, which is both possible and kosher in my book. On Oct 14, 8:16 pm, Jonathan Lundell

This is what some of us do for rest. Like I said in the other thread, web2py deserves a great logo. We're doing a 21st-century crowd source. I'm learning about voting systems and new photoshop nooks and crannies. It's all goodness. +1 JL. On Oct 14, 10:56 pm, Jonathan Lundell jlund...@pobox.com

I agree. The one Martin made is good but ... 1) should made to run on GAE 2) should use RPX for login 3) should provide multiple lists of logos for multiple companies 4) should sort logos and vote with rating [*] (plugin rating?) 5) allow visitor to comment on logos
