    ok lukus, no pb, i get it ;)
    of course i'm being the devil's advocate here... i mean most of you guys are pros, and the site is not , i say it again, a way for brands to get cheap ads and steal your jobs.

    Just as an example we pay a freelance a hefty price for every contest page... we don't ask anyone in our community to do it for 100$ ;-)
    another example, in 2 years, more than 200 000euros have been given out in prizes. we also have a contest (in french) that has 110 000€ give away right now, just for a 20 sec webcam testimony for an ISP...not a motion design ad where you spend weeks of editing on.
    We just partnered with the Portable Film festival, and the winner's will close the ceremony and be Featured everywhere... isn't that a good shot?

    Some of the guys guys who win are pros, have other command jobs, but like competitions, some are students, some are amateurs, some get postive feedback from other guys on site, some get lynched. Some win and stay, other get mad at the clients choices and leave...

    Since i do work for Eyeka, i'm never going to be able to convince any of you, that's why i really urge you to ask winners and loosers on site...and you'll get postive and negative feedback, as always. i could send you mails of guys i talk to, but that would be too easy for me ;)

    • listen it does sound better than some, but the basic principal I'm sorry, but it's bad for uskelpie
