A New Face for Money !





rs_dollar_phatcity2

Graphic Designer Richard Smith can think of one way to help the U.S. economy: designing new currency! Smith created the design above and has asked others to submit their designs to the Dollar Redesign Project. Winners will win a t-shirt, and have their entry posted on the Posterous blog. While the prize may be miniscule, it could turn into something more if enough people follow the project and want the U.S. currency to change. Who knows? Maybe Jack Nicholson, Barbie or Superman will be the new face for American currency. Check out some of the entries below to make your decision.
