Program To Sign The Greek Finance Minister's Signature - Contest For ₦20,000 by Seun(m): 8:30am On Jul 15, 2015
If you've been following the Greek debt crisis, you may have encountered their new finance minister's upstanding and ballsy signature:

Can you write a program to simulate the signing of that signature at any size?

Your program should allow the user to select the size of the box within which the signature should be signed, and then it should simulate the signing of the signature manually within the box, as if a person is signing it with a black biro. The resulting signatures should be smoothly anti-aliased, just like the original signature above, and it should be sized to fill the user-specified box while maintaining the correct aspect ratio.

You can use Javascript, a JVM/.NET language, or Python. Upload as a zip file (yourusername.zip). The writer of the 1st good entry wins N10k N20k.

Update: Winner announced!

Upstanding. And. Ballsy.

There is no intent to deceive, so yes, it is legal. A copy of the signature is even available on Wikipedia.

Is anyone working on this? Thinking of shutting it down if no one is working on it, since there are concerns about legality.

If yes pick your language of choice. Also do you want the signature generated animated like a person signing the signature?
