fuck that
royal pain in the ass
I was up last night tyin to get somthing together, bull shit! :(

that really pisses me off - I have been flat out the past few days, figured I'd finally get a chance to add the finishing touches this evening . What a let-down, did it not occur to them that the people who have day-jobs only get a small amount of time per day to work on this sort of stuff. Dammit. That's ruined my day.

cheers for notifying us, jakeyj.
you are more worthy to organize such thing then semi-permanent.
they could at least have put a proper excuse on the frontpage and let us know, by (having it posted or)posting it on all the deisgnboards..
- DutchBoy0
really.
they are not getting many friends by doing this shit.

LET'S BURN THAT MUTHA DOWN!!
* starts riot
- ricstultz0
did anyone get their submission in or a reply?
- blackspade0
having said that
i can understand the organisation it takes for this kind of event (for two guys) and even getting the book together
if they simply had far too many submissions this time around, maybe they just wouldnt have time to look at any more than what they have recieved, still sucks
- radar0
Why don't you guys post some links to your submissions - so at someone will get a look - I would like to see some spreads.
- Duane0
I got mine in (I think) yesterday. It was at least emailed to them - haven't heard anything. I'll post it later.
- mr_snuggles0
Well at least they could've just lied and not said anything at all and just stopped looking at submissions. It's pretty naive to think that you're not gonna be getting "many" submissions, given the publication.
And further to what radar said about posting spreads, we didn't even get the opportunity to design spreads, just single pages!!
- DutchBoy0
it's jsut silly.
if you are going to start something like this you better get more people on it. i am sure there are other designers wanting to help out in exchange for a few goodies or a copy of (and a mention in) the book. simple as that.
this is just plain unfair for those still working on it.
really weak imo.

I agree with all of you people. That sucks! I was going to submit today... Oh well. Its their loss. Semi Permament just lost our free and gorgeous designs.

i was going to submit today. i think that if you declare deadline is 25th, it should be the 25th...

What a load of total and complete and utter bollocks.
They well and truly shot themsleves in the foot now. Zero respect to them and hope it goes tits up to fuck them over good and proper like they have done to so many people.

For what it's worth, here's what I submitted. The design incorporates one of the earliest images of the moon, Buzz Aldrin and Googled text; lyrics from a song and fictional text based on the concepts introduced by science fiction authors George Allan and Robert A. Heinlein of advertising on the moon.

nice concept testpilot :) generally something these books lack...
- radar0
I dig that concept and piece test pilot - nice job.
Anyone else have submissions to preview?
- mr_snuggles0
I have a jpeg of the "almost" final version, but I stopped working on it when found out the submissions closed, but alas I can't post it, so you'll have to use your imagination...
- DutchBoy0
i am still really pissed at semi-permanent.
i wonder if they are getting any angry emails.. i think they deserve it.
really shite as i was intending to submit and was all excited about it.
fucking fuckers.
no trust in them anymore.
- Duane0
Thanks - glad you approve. After I was done I was wondering what the hell I was thinking! Anyhow, it was fun to play. Feel free to email me your submissions and I can post for anyone without hosting access.
