i actually participated in this particular contest (and tons of other ones on 99designs) and the entire affair is definitely disheartening to the designers honing their own unique styles. Originality is typically asked for but ‘the familiar’ is what often wins the most. being that my initial graphic design education was disrupted years ago, i now use that site to practice and create samples with for my own freelancing agency that i attempt to turn over for the actual clients who come thru my door. (i think most of the designers on 99d are still taking courses themselves and are using the site for their own experience more than actually trying to win) … i’m not in favor of or against spec work and have no issue to honest designers trying to make a few bucks (usually no more than $150) but i am weening away from the site as i concentrate on my own agency.

sppt..not all 99 designers ‘follow’ our above example of creating…….I am one of many who are trying to ‘weed’ out he ‘weeds’…and 99 strictly forbids THIS!….so it is an outrage……designers need to watch, as many, many just don’t ‘get’ stealing, clipart, stock….is NOT ok.
