OK, I got a few dozen readers mad at me by running super duper late on this T-shirt contest announced just a month ago. :)

My apologies, but we’re finally here, at the finalist stage!

(For those of you who really are mad, I really am sorry. I’ve been overloaded with work and there were so many entries it was hard to get the judging under control.)

Incredible submissions: There were way more entries than I’d expected — dozens and dozens of them — and they were so amazingly great that it was hard to judge. But I got my panel of judges together and we’ve compiled the Top 10 finalists.

The panel of judges: my wife Eva and my four oldest kids — Chloe, Justin, Rain and Maia. Thank you judges for your excellent work!

Final selections: Now that we’re down to a Top 10, I will have you, the readers, make the final selections. I do not envy you.

Apologies: To those who did not make the final cut, I apologize. You did great work, and it was really hard to choose. A few of my favorites were cut by the merciless judges.

The prizes: first prize is a $200 Amazon.com gift certificate. Second is $100 certificate, and third is $75. If it is really close, I’ll choose 4 or 5, and those two will get $50 certificates. Update: I increased 2nd and 3rd prizes a little. Also, all 10 entries will get the Zen Habits ebook of their choice for free.

How to choose: pick one logo — a logo you think fits in with the philosophy of this site, and that will look good on a T-shirt.

Voting ends: March 5, 2008.

Update: POLL IS NOW CLOSED! You can see the results below. The wrap-up post will come soon.
