On the Vladimir Putin group on Facebook, a contest has been announced to create a logo for the Russian president.
According to the creators of the idea, every “superhero and great politician” has their own brand sign, and Vladimir Putin needs one too.
The rules of the contest state that participants can send organisers their design, and the winner is promised a “great prize”. The conditions state that the most important thing for victory is not masterful execution, but the creativity and the idea and that the people behind the initiative want to create a supporter-designed logo for Putin.
In the group, which is made up of 150,000 people from different countries in the world, several tens of different “Putin signs” have already been posted.
Comments from Ridus.ru:
Апототышка:
A logo is a trade sign. How much do they want to sell the country’s leader for?
Мутабор:

Добробобр:
What do we need a competition for? What is there to discuss? Vladimir Vladimirovich designed his own, he decided for himself:
BabyRoo:
They should head over to Lepra, see what they’re drawing for him there. There are some creative guys there :)
[Note: Lepra is one of the Runet’s cesspits, similar to 4chan]
Джон Мирасти:
Russians have always loved being oppressed, and have loved their father-leader, making him into a cult leader.
Котя Мышкин:
What, is he designing the monogram for the Tsar’s seal?
Sorc:
Putin can’t have a logo, he’s not a bottle of fizzy drink and he’s not a car.
«Фома»:
Next they need to have a competition for the crown, but the Big Emperor is already wearing it.
