    Yes it is questionable whether or not we will all get paid since we have all been waiting for quite some while past the deadlines now....but I highly doubt that Gary created 4 separate profiles just to fool us. If you even read our posts, we all have different ways of speaking..urrr typing. And yes we all signed up at the same time because we all saw the ad on Craigslist and signed up to this Forum specifically just for this contest. I try and think of all the possibilties why someone would have a scam running this long, IF indeed it was a scam....and it just does not make sense to keep dragging this on soooo long whether it is legit or illegitimate.
    As we all know, only Gary can put an end to this
    Hope you all are doing well
    Cheers

    This has gone on long enough. Even if this isn't a scam, Gary isn't trustworthy and I wouldn't work for him or his company now even if I were chosen a winner. We were all promised a minimum of $20 for our design. That's all that I want from Gary now. What we were promised.

    Back on May 13th, when I got the first email, I was told that he had 25 projects and he and his team were working 24/7. If they were really that busy and needed help that bad, a winner would have been chosen back on the first deadline.

    Here's what I think happened. In the original contest description, we were all told to submit the PSD files for our submissions to count. I think I was the only one who did that and Gary even told me that in an email I got from him on the 15th of May.

    "Thanks Jason,
    Excellent work. Your actually the first person that actually did what I asked!
    that is huge in my book."

    So if no one else submitted their PSD files, he couldn't get a bunch of free files so he's just stringing us along for some reason. Maybe to start up another contest to see what he can get out of that.

    I suppose I've ranted enough. If you're listening Gary, we'd all like our $20 at the very least.

    Hi Everyone,
    I just logged in. I was kind of shocked to be honest with everyone. I did not make any fake profiles or anything like that it. That is just silly. I was looking for somebody who I could work with long term. I wouldn't scam anybody out of $20. So to prove to everybody that is the case. If you participated in the contest and submitted a legitimate design (That wasn't just changing text on the template) Please send me your name and & paypal via email. Here is my email gary.zaydman (at) gmail.com

    Thank you to everybody who participated. I'm really sorry about all the confusion.

    Thank you,
    Gary
