The outline of a billboard could be used.

ATTACHED:
Logos of three competitors (APN, EYE & OOH).
We don't want our logo resembling theirs.
Also.
Logos that we like (Twitter, Facebook, Google, Yahoo, etc).
Clean, fun and fresh.
Professional touch.
ALSO:
Would anyone like to play with the ST concept attached?
IDEA!!
A part of our website will require people to post comments about billboards.
Therefore we would love for you to have a go at using speech bubbles as billboards and writing Site Tour in the speech bubbles.
See attached speech bubbles and man on megaphone for inspiration!
If someone can use this well, even if in a subtle way, I think they're a good chance of winning.
GOOD LUCK!
