Graphic Design Contests

I appreciate the efforts of the few; however, since posting this I am now averaging 12-15 email hijackings from my site per day from gawab.com email addresses. We are contracting through a company that we have previously used.

I though of one last entry before I go on vacation

Didn't got what you meant with "UMPPPH", but got a fast design with the site's name:

Color can be changed to whatever you like.

PS. I'll be back in 10-12 days, Globalgamez will take any payment if I win something

dj: PM replied to

Commando: good start, when you get back, would like to see the football removed and the logo name put into the center of the circle......would this scale ok? Forgot to include in the original post that my current is like 795x74; 795 x up to @ 100 should be ok.

Target for completion is @ 14 days unless we have someone absolutely nail it, then we will close it sooner.

Yes it is, SECRivals.com; however, depending on the font, all caps may be suitable.

hey guys?

if you have original graphics and artwork, and you have proof such as a burnt cd (time and date stamped) with the original file such as some ...no most programs have thier own formating and they give you the option to save the original program formatting and things like a world wide web page full of graphic designers etc sending in thier original work for judging and possible cash prizes etc. you have a nice lawsuit if you can go thru the proper channels to hunt down the ip address that posted the contest ad. Im guessing webmaster talk would probably be more then willing to help with hunting down who is who and where the numbers, ip addys, and like most companys will have a "mask ip" and an ip that shows the users ip address. It could all be tracked down and my advice to anyone who is gettin ripped off....find a lawyer that deals in cases just like this....for any of you that decide they want to snatch up a free graphic, lol thats pathetic but beware this is not 1995...your in 2006 anyone can be tracked down if they are using the internet. The list of diffrent ip listings are getting so technical its almost like DNA. I would love to know if and how WebMaster Talk has stepped in to find this person and help prosecute to the fullest. It is stealing period and if it is not something they take seriously I may second guess my new membership

PEACE

well, that is one solution for our probkems, but I still haven't seen a real rip-off here, to steal just the logo, put it on his site, and don't pay. I only seen contest-holders leaving without paying, But I don't think they've took anything with them...
If you always see your design on a site which didn't payed you, you can always find a lawyer as you said, and put a charge (dunno if that's how it's called on english) on them for copyright damage.

Then they will pay you allot more than just paying your logo on the contest

**DesignerChick4U** · 08-23-2006, 05:21 AM

Well its good to know its not like a serious rip off to invest in the contests. yea basicly its charges against them but not like "go to jail" kind.
It's go to court and hope you have a good lawyer and God on your side.

I just like doing it, its kind of a challenge ya know? it beats Pogo sometimes <smile> LOL

**CoMmAnDo** · 08-23-2006, 05:41 AM

Well, If you really like chalenges, design a 50th anniversary logo for the EU and you might win 6000 euro

**DesignerChick4U** · 08-23-2006, 06:37 AM

lol welllll give me an address to try and I will, however euros arent going to do me any good in the states lol is this a real contest?
