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. :-)

Hi Vidushi,
You are doing good, but your design need improvements. The logo looks blurred and color combination is also not goes with it. Try to be more creative and make a better one.

Vidushi, Mandeep noted several items that can be improved including making the logo look not blurred, more aesthetically appealing color combinations (this is subjective, but your current colors clash badly). I suggest looking at some of the completed sticker designs to see what quality and features are familiar.

how much time will it take to be approved
Vidushi, thanks for working on this!
Your idea is nice, but you need to work on it a bit. That background/text combiation is making text difficult to read. Could you perhaps think of a more readable combination, change the background etc.
Also, writing a large "BRL-CAD" on the background makes it difficult to write on as well. I suggest you either look at a more minimal approach, or decrease a lot the text's opacity.
Feel free to ask us on #brlcad on irc.freenode.net if you have any questions
Best,
Andrei
