I think the reason we disagree is that we have a different idea of what
"submission" means. You think submissions are for any logos, including logos
that needs improvement. I think they are for finished logos only. I say
there are no such thing as initial submissions, only final submissions.

I agree that we should do this, but I think it should be *before* the
submissions.

When the logos have been submitted, it is too late to change them, so the
improvements you are talking about should be before the submissions.

I think people can post their logos in povray.binaries.images. There they
can get feedback, and they can improve it. When the logo doesn't need to be
improved anymore, they can be submitted.

I say, keep the newsgroups open. The logos can be discussed there. I think
ideas and sparks will thrive anyway.

I hope you will reply to this and tell me what you think :-)
