GUI Championship is coming
Skinners, start your skinning..
Monday, August 28, 2006 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News
The third world GUI Championship (previously called the GUI Olympics) is about to get going.
The three contests will be WindowBlinds skins, Icon packages (with at least 55 icons), and wallpapers.
Nearly $10,000 in cash and prizes will be handed out to the winners. The formal announcement will be next week but since some of this stuff takes considerable time to do, we wanted to make sure people had time. Events in each contest will include most usable, most original, and best overall (and possibly others).
ANYONE can participate as long as they aren't a judge of course. Stardock will NOT be judging (though I may be an alternate judge in the event that one of the official judges is not able to judge a particular event in time). Registed users will be able to vote on skins to bring it down to a top 10 in each category with the judges judging the 10 finalists.
Submissions must be NEW (i.e. you can't take an existing skin and submit it). Official announcement next week.

Paying subscribers would be a much better idea IMO.
This is going to turn into a popularity contest if you leave it in the hands of just registered users. It still may with subscribers only....
