BRL-CAD has a relatively new logo and the website is undergoing major changes. So this re-branding of BRL-CAD also requires a good, well designed and attractive cover photo for the BRL-CAD's Facebook page and other social media facades. It should feature a good tagline (our official is ""open source solid modeling"") or showcase some killer feature of BRL-CAD, BRL-CAD's new logo and/or some illustration/image regarding the feature highlighted.
It should be consistent with the color scheme of our new website design. Please avoid a military-centric theme and cheesy bylines (you can use ""Open Source Solid Modeling"" or something else simple). Make it look impressive, awesome. Be simple, but be awesome.

You may also get some inspiration from our recent book creation:

Submit one image of the banner image by itself and another example mock-up image showing how it will look on our Facebook page. Any image format will do just fine.
There are duplicates of this task as we solicit ideas and inspiration. Look at the other completed GCI ""facebook"" tasks and make yours look even better. Do not claim more than one without discussing with us first

Hi Vladimir,
I liked the simplicity of your design. Good job. Fonts are just awesome. However your design currently lacks in few aspects such as background looks empty. You can use some image or any graphics to depict the 3D CAD nature of software. Keep the color scheme of the cover image consistent with our logo.
Good luck!
There are less than 24 hours left until the deadline, please submit your work soon.

Hey Vladimir, your design is simply great, you are going good. Could you tell what's that text in cover photo, I could read words like primitives etc. Is the text related to BRL-CAD source ?
I'm sorry for the late answer, I haven't subscribed to the task so I don't get any notifications about it.
Thank you very much for your reply. I'm really happy that you like the design.
