Dollar redesign

An organization is hosting a dollar redesign contest. it's mostly just for fun but looks pretty cool. I got this from this site 

REBRAND, REBUILD, REVIVE …

It seems so obvious to us that the ‘only’ realistic way for a swift economic recovery is through a thorough, in-depth, rebranding scheme – starting with the redesign of the iconic US Dollar – it’s the ‘only’ pragmatic way to add some realistic stimulation into our lives! Therefore, you must take part and we really want to see what YOU would do.

“But what’s in it for me?” Whichever submission we like the best will win a special limited edition word-art t-shirt designed by ‘international branding expert’ Richard Smith. Sound good? Then simply submit your redesign ideashere (based on the guidelines below). All entries will be posted. Closing date for submissions is July 4th, 2009.

WHY TAKE PART?

The American Dollar has not truly been redesigned since about the 1930s. The Dollar ReDe$ign Project is your opportunity to theoretically ‘change’ that. Yes, technically there are many limitations and complications when it comes to bank note design, but if the Swiss can do it on a regular basis, why can’t we North Americans too. Besides our great ‘rival’, the Euro, looks so spanky in comparison it seems the only clear way to revive this global recession is to rebrand and redesign. Why not ? It seems to work for everyone else …

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Brief: simply redesign the US Dollar bill in any way you think appropriate andsubmit to us for review. We’ll then post the ones we like online.
