GUI Championships - Participation..
Want to hear from you..
Thursday, March 16, 2006 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News
Every two years now for the past 6 years we've done the GUI Championships (formerly GUI Olympics but the US Olympic Committee sent the lawyers after us).
We've tried different types of judging over the years and had different rules. But one of the bummers has been that Stardock people can't participate since, well, we run the thing so obviously you can't have Stardock people participating.
So this time, we are asking you - users, skinners, and everyone else, under what circumstances, if any, could we let people like Mike Bryant (MikeB), Paul Boyer (Mormegil), and other Stardock artists particpiate? I think the contest overall would be better served if they could be in it but we would need to not have Stardock involved in the judging then.
Imagine how much better the contest would be with icons from Paul Boyer? Or skins from Mike Bryant? Not to mention other stuff from other Stardock artists. But we want to do things the way you want them so let us know.

| I vote for Night Train as a judge |
but I have 1.80 skins ready already and I haven't even gotten into the BIG one yet.
I wouldn't mind being a judge though.

If the GUI Champs get pushed back into mid or late Summer, I have a good idea for a skin I'd submit, but I kinda want to see it happen before then.

Good idea, but not sure about this part:
| The best you can do is have blind judges look at the themes. |

Sounds good to me. I won't be entering so can volunteer to be a judge if required. I'm fair and impartial, if a little tough...
