you really need to link the front page graphic so you click it and it takes you to a page describing the contest. you need contest pages for each instead of the little pop up when you go to submit design. maybe a coupole paragraphs and some graphics…?

Yes, the shoe will be sold on our site. Colors of the shoe panels don’t count towards your limit. The limit is for the actual printing.

What are the shoe panels and are they a standard color?

i have a question. being that it’s 5 color limit, if a design gets picked, does it need to be supplied in vector form?

I would like to know about the vector also…

It doesn’t necessarily need to be in vector if it has a high resolution (around 300 dpi).

thanks for all the votes people. I was a bit dissapointed how low my score was. My votes shot up by ten in the last hour. Does popdeck send out another automated email because I didn´t email anyone and it was weird how all of a sudden I got ten more vote

We got a bunch of emails from people looking to submit last minute, so we’ve extended the contest through the weekend.

totally sus how mine and some other designs are climbing at the same rate without new comments. Do you check popdeck that someone isn’t just getting their mates to down vote the competition. Also where are all the new designs??

You mean all the new designs for the shoe competition? The reason the contest was extended?

I hate to admit it, but I dropped out at the point where I wanted to buy two of the designs out there already. Felt like even if I won, I lost! (But, I wasn’t one asking to extend the deadline either)

sorry I just saw in another thread the winner…
but will it be possible to due an (one-off) program or low quantity order with the shoes and add them to our popdeck storefront when its up? probably not I would think…
