At this point I'm considering giving the entire donation to the QuarkCoin foundation.

I don't think anyone in the "rankings" deserves any reward.

Starting the contest over would be pointless since the community has said repeatedly it does not want or need a new logo.

I will update everyone here when I have reached a final decision

I always pledged for a new vote, but I can understand your decision. Still, the debate of a professional QRK branding seems important to me, even if some community members (I don´t see a uniform statement from the community) prefer to stick with the old logo. I don´t know if its possible to gather our designers again. It would mean that people were willing to forgive, to forget and to start from scratch. We have lots of talented designers in our community which is a huge potential for Quark. It would be too bad if this potential was gone only because of this contest.

You have sponsored designs. Some of which have already been adopted by the quark community.
Now you are tempted to renege on your promise of reward!

Get ready for a shitstorm of negative feedback. You should start a new account NOW!
