i take a deposit on all commisioned work login.arvind. Entering a contest is as its name suggest, a contest winner decided by original poster. If you decided on your own to do additional changes before being awarded the prize that is your bad. Suck it up and move on my friend and dont let it trouble you. put it down to experiance and learn from it.
its never about money, i can do the best at my end, i can't read any once mind, if u might have told what r the changes to be done i might have done those, The thing is that i had faced the same problem before also, because every artist has talent to do better,,. one more time its not about money,,.
It was clearly stated that the best work would be chosen and then paid for.. I don't think it was anything personal at all! Congrats arun
i am not angry on any one but this should not happen to any one working hard, client should help the designer to get the output in his mind that's it, And i am happy for ARUN, and once again i am telling ist not about money
i dont enter contests, apart for fun. i have won many in a previous life. but it amazes me how many times the 3rd or 4th best one (in my opinion) was picked by the original poster. Also i have seen original posters ask 5/6 designers for changes before he/she will make up their mind on a winner. Simple maths dictate: if 6 peoiple enter your chances of winning are 6/1. therefore you must enter 6 contest to win 1. so you make 6 $10 designs and get paid $10. Enter for fun, you will be happier.
