WTC Design Contest!

There was been alot of debate a few years back on what the new WTC should look like. I wanna see your designs. We'll format it like a real board desicion. Post your designs and on Febuary 1st we will all vote on what design we like the most.
This should be a very fun and in depth discussionable thread.
Anybody can enter!
Good Luck!

I did this for my final major project at college doing BND Graphics Design... but I wasn never to satisfied with the outcome in terms of the design preparation.

So perhaps this will give me another opportunity to redeem myself

Let me see what I can come up with. Therefore, I'm in.

I had an idea that I floated in my head every so often. The challenge was to pay homage to the original, but not be derivative and above all else don't design anything that could ever be mistaken for the original. How awful would it be for an ignorant dolt a generation from now to look at the original towers and have no idea they were destroyed with the loss of 3,000 lives?

Imperar, I never said it was a life or death situation. I'm just simply reminding people to post their ideas when they are ready, due to the fact the Feb. 1 is the day of voting. I don't appreciate the edge people constantly have. I'm not going to entertain arguring and these sly remarks on this thread. It may be a fad everywhere else on this forum, but this thread is suppose to be fun. Lets just end this minor turmoil here, and get back to enjoying the thread. If anyone has a comment on what I just said, send me a private message, and don't pollute this thread with nonsense. Thank you for your cooperation.

Just to give everyone a heads up, the deadline in Febuary 1st and today is the 27th of January. Be sure to get your entries in before the voting takes place. I'll make a seperate thread for the voting on the day of the deadline. Thanks.
