    Hi all Graphic designers.
    Since last 15-20days i was participating in the contests,and i saw the contests will be over without any winner.Rarely in some contests you'll see the winner.
    We were doing hard work for good for nothing.What's all this.Why DP's not taking actions against such runaway :mad: CH :mad:PLEASE!!!Administrator do something,take immediate action against them,impose fine or charges on them.
    Its a humble request.

    That's quite a good point actually.

    I'm sure some of these competition threads are designed just to increase the OP's exposure/post count. It's exactly the same thing with people requesting signature links - quite often, having responded a dozen or so times in the thread, they don't actually bother to purchase any.

    That's my observation anyway... and I'm only right 99% of the time!

    Yes, I always see contests that ends with no winner as the OP takes the designs and runaway. So it's advised to watermark your designs.

    I agree. I have run contests and I don't want good designers to ignore them for fear of not having a real winner. I always pay. I guess you really have to pay attention to the member's iTrader and Reputation before deciding to enter a contest.

    You may also be able to do a search to see if a user has run a contest before and what the result was. Hope this helps.
