I'm glad we agree that the logos may be made with any program(s).

Of course.

Here is my opinion: Since a logo is just a piece of graphics, the only thing
that makes a logo good or bad is it's appearance. Therefore I think we
should judge from the appearance only.

Because appearance is the only thing that matters, the code is irrelevant.

BTW: How will you judge logos which is made in POV-Ray, but where the code
isn't provided?

The IRTC is not just about praising good images. It is also about praising
skills.

But in the logo contest the only goal is to find the best logo for POV-Ray.
It is *not* about praising the skills required to make that logo.
