Hey :) I work some designs at 99 designs on my freetime, so if you got Illustrator and some sparetime and a mug of coffee, why not try :)

It´s not a bad thing to have learning designers have an opportunity to win a fewhudred if they get lucky, if not, at least experience !

Professional designers can keep their opinions

Youre a fucking moron. Good designers don't have a "style" and if you have a budget, the designer can work with that. You might not get everything you want, but then again, you're not paying for everything you want.

This company lacks any respect for the design process. You want a piece of shit logo that you're paying WAY too much for if you're paying 900 dollars, go right ahead. Or you can come to an actual designer and pay him your 900 and get a logo that has something to do with the company

@hobbesandcalvin1000

as a student in a graphic design program i find this site fun to play around with and try out new ideas, like its awesome if i ever get chosen but i do find good practice.

but the clients on the site suck ass

@dusbewon

i agree im in this one contest and this guy is eliminated every single design

like no matter what design it is they will eliminate them

[dusbewon]

You forgot to mention, that you can get ripped off doing this as a designer. I feel like its such disrespect. Half of the clients buying this crap dont know what a nice logo really is.

@TRICKYOTOOL How is it one sided? If you wish to support these kind of crowd sourcing websites go for it, that's your choice. Name me one other profession where people are asked to complete a job with a sometime less than 1% chance they may get paid for it? I wish you luck and I'm sure with time and plenty of hours spent doing designs hoping to win a menial amount of money for your efforts makes you happy. In time as you look back you will learn just how one sided these web sites are.

@hobbesandcalvin1000 thats a very one sided view from someone who is already in the industry. for people like me who wish to get into designing, websites like this one help alot. i practice my skills while getting the opourtunity to get paid for it. theres also the companys perspective instead of just getting one mans creative view he can get multiple.
