Editor's Corner: Enter Our Stinkin' Badge Contest

Gene Gable's articles are usually a visual tour of some historical trend, such as type in the 1970s. In this week's article on badge design, Gene does delve into badges' past, but then he takes the topic into the present with tongue-in-cheek badges he designed for today's creative pro. Do you know someone who should wear this one?

Now it's your turn. Download the blank badges Gene provided, customize them, and send your designs to editor@creativepro.com by January 28, 2008. We'll give our top five favorites a $20 gift certificate to Amazon.com!

You'll find the article and the blank files at http://www.creativepro.com/story/feature/26264.html.
