Envia FoundationLogo Design Contest

Hello! Here are some hints for getting the most out of your contest:

~~ Rank designs daily -- this will encourage more participation.
~~ Ranking designs daily will also keep your contest from getting cluttered.
~~ The more feedback you provide, the better results you are going to see.
~~ Designers are not offended by "Not Interested"
~~ Over-use of "Not Interested" discourages participation.
~~ Ranking is a non-monitary means of showing apprecaition for designers hard work.
~~ Designers earn points for ranked designs. We like to earn points.

Dear Ch

How to Rank and Thank Designers: When it comes time for final rankings, designers appreciate when you choose the top three CONCEPTS (as opposed to variations of the same design) for the gold, silver and bronze awards. If you want to rank two different concepts by the same designer in the top three, that's fine.
Also, rank as many entries as possible, because designers get points added to their overall site standing for each blue ribbon they get.

This is how points are distributed:

1st place - 50 points
2nd place - 20 points
3rd place - 10 points
4-6th place - 5 points
7-10 place - 3 points

After that, each ranked entry gets one point for the designer. Nobody will be insulted by being ranked last, the points are still good! So if you pull some entries out of the "Not Interested" group and give them a rank, the designer gets some benefit from entering your contest.

Hope that's helpful, lots of contest holders don't realize this and most are glad to know. It's a good way to thank designers who don't win the contest prize, but who worked very hard to offer you lots of options to choose from for a great logo.

Thanks for understanding

Thank you for your input and educating us in the process. I apologize for any confusion or discouragement. I hope streamline the process tonight. This is a new venture for us.

I appreciate your patience and cooperation. We value everyone's time and designs...

Thank you!

On examining the progression of this contest, it is clear that Hughes Design was basically the first to enter the idea of a tree / plant in the 'i' or textual position. He would be the one with valid cases against all further entries. Since he has chosen not to exercise the right, then few other cases will hold any real validity. I have reversed the LC against Maxk.

Please examine the history of an idea before voting.

So much for the Logo Court...........
