if they're based in Nottingham, how come the prize is in dollars?

flatcat · 21-03-2004, 19:24

To try and get more international competitors? *shrug*

TriPixels · 21-03-2004, 21:57

Hell, I think I'm gonna enter the contest!

But the only problem is, I can't read

jk :P

jamesc · 22-03-2004, 01:06

because from past experience, the majority of entrants will either be from the states, or will be from a country where the dollar is more widely used and accepted than the pound.

jamesc · 22-03-2004, 03:09

there's now a html version of the PDF available at www.camptastic.net/contest.html

jamesc · 22-03-2004, 13:40

due to (mostly private) criticism from members of this and other message boards, about the way the contest is being run, we've decided to cancel it.

There's no point running a contest for designers when this many of you are against it.

For the record, no entries were received in the short time the contest was actually running.

Thanks to those of you who were genuinely interested in entering.

pfft heres a $10,000 ten thousand logo comp

the entries so far are genius though

edit: oli can we have blue links for us clever link hiderers?

Brown · 22-03-2004, 14:23

you can have that for 20 quid.

i'm gutted about the close of this competition, we never have a competition round here any more...

jamesc · 22-03-2004, 14:25

I wonder if they're taking as much sh*t from the designers-rights activists as we did?

I agree...was just thinking of starting a thread to request such a thing. I'm on a monitor other than what's hooked up to my home/office PC, and you really can't differentiate between linked/unlinked text. Maybe it's a P.O.S. Dell Monitor, but it is set to highest color quality, etc.

Gray, maybe this calls for another thread/poll?

There is an advertising forum, but only for people over 50 posts to get rid of the one post spammers.
