This task involves designing a BRL-CAD sticker. Make it look good, something you'd be proud to give to all of your friends and family, something you'd put on your laptop or phone case. Look over some great sticker designs before starting to work on this, including the other completed GCI sticker designs by others.
Simple is good. Using our formal (the three circles) or informal (moose antlers) logo is great. Please avoid any military theme (no tanks!), do not use our old eagle logo, but do put a dash in BRL-CAD. If you use the three circle gear logo, the centers should be white and it must be 300dpi high quality -- use one of the vector versions submitted as a GCI task here or search around for one.
There is no bound shape for the shape of the sticker. It can be rectangular, circular, or even irregular shaped. The only thing that matters is that it look really cool.

Submit your artwork in any file format, but with transparency or dimension settings so we can print them properly. (png, xcf, or psd work well). Give your name so we can credit you if you like as well and join our brlcad-news mailing list to hear if we use your sticker design.
Make it look awesome. LOOK at some of the completed ones and make yours look even better. :-)

I would like to work on this task.
This task has been assigned to Rishi Sharma. You have 168 hours to complete this task, good luck!
Do I need to write my name over the sticker??
The work on this task is ready to be reviewed.
Rishi, you will most certainly be credited with your creation if we send these to print, but I don't think we'd want that on the sticker itself. You don't usually see authorship on a sticker as it distracts from the design. Moreover your "all rights reserved" statement means we can't use those images anyways (that's a legal statement - we need full rights from you to use your design).
Since you included that clause on some of your images, you'll need to confirm here that we are granted full rights to your work and that we can use your design without restriction.
I like how you incorporated the logo into our title. I'm surprised, but I believe you're actually the first to think of that for GCI.
Congratulations, this task has been completed successfully.
Thank You for appreciating the use of logo instead 'A' and I'm sorry about writing that name as I was confused after reading the description of the task that's why and i also asked about that but no answered it .
So, I uploaded both kinds of stickers.
No harm but since you put the statement on some of them, you still need to confirm here that we are granted full rights to your work and that we can use your design without restriction. We still need you to do that -- to explicitly say that. Otherwise, we cannot use your design (you still completed the task regardless).
Using your name was "undesirable but fine". The problem is that you also put the legal statement.
Also know that if you ask a question, it may take upwards of 36 hours for a response and we might not even see your question until you mark the task as ready for review. There's simply too much activity and too many GCI participants so attention is prioritized on those that are ready.
Yeah! you are granted full rights to use my design. But how you are going to give me credit for making that design.
