Congratulations to Gabrielle Wee for her winning entry — a clever animation that pays tribute to our host city, New Orleans, by animating some familiar street elements and architecture. Gabrielle wins a free ticket to this year’s CSS Dev Conference.

“Gabrielle made wonderful use of Sass in this animated adventure. First, The CSS Dev Conference logo is drawn out with a lovely simple stroke animation,” wrote Chris Coyier. “It really captures the spirit of New Orleans, CSS, and the conference itself.”

The CodePen Community did some amazing things with the conference logo as part of the CSS Dev Conf Fork Challenge! See all the entries here.
