    While I think that these kinds of contests are ridiculous, I gotta say that comments like this:

    "There is no upside to spec work. It is a huge insult to me as a designer and hurts the industry that you cater to.

    I will not be buying Moleskeins any more."

    Are pretty ridiculous. Moleskin still makes a quality product, and like the post says.. if you disagree with what they're doing, just don't participate. It's that simple.

    If no designers participate, they will pull the contest and do this the right way. I don't think this is a reason to boycott Moleskin products.

    The reality is that many designers WILL participate in this because they see benefit in going for it.

    To each his own, I say.
