    This is a bit of a free idea donation scheme at the moment; it might be better to seal the contest or at least provide a more specific specification; otherwise we may as well screw ourselves over

    Here is a tip for all competitors:
    Before submitting a logo show someone your design (without telling them about the brief) and ask if they can read what the four letters are?
    If they can identify straight away that they are SiJo then you're in with a real chance to win this contest!
    There is still plenty of time to put more entries in!
    Good Luck everyone!

    You need to be careful because there are ambigram generators online and you have to pay for the license. Whichever you choose, you better check where the text came from.
