Anybody else down?
I'm totally going to do this.... a little extra cash and exposure never hurts.
- mr_snuggles0
Yeah, hopefully, I'm still trying to find time to START something for the semi-permanent book submissions. How about you ric, do you know what you're gonna submit for the book yet?
- ricstultz0
Yeah totally... I've got about three drawings I just finnished... but I may submit the record player illustration cuz everyone seems to dig it.
We shall see tho, I still got a week to decide.
I don't know why people wouldn't do this stuff.....
- mr_snuggles0
Agreed. What's that knocking on the door, oh, it's just opportunity...

hey ricstultz:
this is a bit off-topic, but i've got a friend whose style is similar to yours:

saw the winners of last year.. wtf?
they did not judge based on the design itself if you ask me..
the first place for instance is someone who makes little puppets and additionally she had them printed on a board. that's all. and won.
pfffft..
- ricstultz0
yeah agree dutchboy... but at the same time at least it gives guys like me, less interested in computer design than handmade things, a chance.
I like the fact that they are willing to stray from the routine graphics.
- DutchBoy0
yeah, i know.
but they talked all about the puppets and not how the board itself was designed.
i think this is just another kind of design contest that i don't really identify with.
sux.
- ricstultz0
Agreed... and how did those puppets relate to one of the three areas they are looking for people to design for?

It seems that judges choices for design comp winners are random at best.
No one knows what "type" of design will make it, but the exposure could do us all some good.
Nothing keeps your skills sharp like a little competition.
I'm down.
- JazX0
you and the 500 other designers. ;)

"

i do not think i value the jury that much, it seems at random indeed.

Jazx wtf? ya never know unless you try...
- DutchBoy0
sorry for the double post.
- DutchBoy0
the next winner could be the one printing all the thongs of his gf on it or something..
sooo random. it is more a gamble then anything else..
- mr_snuggles0
Depends how you approach the contest, the judges for this contest will be a little tougher to please since, well, who the fuck are they? Other comps I've entered (and won) were a little easier to identify what they were looking for since they were notable designers. This one really seems like a shot in the dark, but whatever, it'll be fun fo' sho.
- DutchBoy0
i think i might actually do that then... printning thongs on it.
i could jsut walk away with 2 grand!
:D
- ricstultz0
i just put the best work I've got out there....
and see what happens.
and if nothing happens, so be it.
