Ruby Logo Contest

Ruby Visual Identity Team (<URL:http://rubyidentity.org/>) did great works to improve the online presence of Ruby, and as a result, the Ruby logo kit (<URL:http://rubyidentity.org/ruby-logo-kit.zip>) is avaiable now. But it's not well known as a logo that represent the programming language Ruby itself.

We need an official Ruby logo to promote Ruby, so we open a contest to select it.
Requirements

* it must look good in low resolution and in grayscale
* works both with and without text `Ruby' (can be ignored if the text `Ruby' is part of the logo)
* you may use the Ruby logo kit (<URL:http://rubyidentity.org/ruby-logo-kit.zip>)
