    Lovely design Allie - was watching the contest and liked it from the start :-)

    I do have to agree with the others though, $250 is the bare minimum, recommended is $400 which is much closer to market prices, but as you say, it is up to the individual whether they participate. When I first started here it was $150 and thankfully after a long time of lobbying by designers to admin staff, it was increased. I strongly believe that it should go up again - too many contests ask for way too much in their brief to make the min. worthwhile - contest holders also need to be educated that a decent design is worth paying for... :-) If you go through the contest list, you'll see that a lot of $250 contests have minimum participation, especially by the designers who have been here a while - there has to be a reason for that :-)

    the money is for how much time you spend on it, you want a good one? pay a higher price.. you want a banged up one, then pay 250$ for 2 hours work and you will see the difference

    I don't think the money prize is low at all. She asked for only a home page design mockup. That's it. $250.00 is not a jip, and if you feel like it is, then I encourage you not to participate in the contests that you don't agree with the prize money.

    Seriously, for a one page home design mockup, what do designers consider reasonable to start off with . . . $500.00? Realistically, we as the designers are should not be jipping clients.

    Also, thank you to the contest holder for choosing me as winner. You've been great to work with.

    #1 looks a little like a post card.

    Everyone: The buy now will go to a shopping cart so there is no need for a form anywhere on the site.
