    So... the contest holder isn't going to choose a winner? That kinda blows. Feels like a waste of time and creativity.

    @perigryne (and all others who read this post)-- you are right about everything you say. I am also sory to "beeng forced by my instincts" to write and share this so open and probably come against the site TOS...but there is an reality on "the real world", i am fulltime freelancer providing services on world class marketplaces (open bidding style) where ALL providers are somewhat FIGHTING already against such systems (talking about services such as "free mockup libraries" such as this site. Not blaming 99site for anything but this site is nothing more than "free mock-up'ers factory" that produces more and more such people that we are all against and encourages this unethical trend and spread the planet with this trend. Designers with such platforms experiences are diving into professionals platforms to try their chances and starting to use the same way they "learn" and are "comfortable" with providing the buyers on profssional buyer-vendor marketplaces with such upfront and unpayed work thinking is an common practice. Many freelance platforms has already trict rules and kicking out members that offer such free ideas/concepts and is considered as unfair competition to the all other members. Same for buyers who state in their project requirements that mockup-sample draft/concept is required in order to be able to place bid on their project...such buyers projects get immediately rejected and the buyer is banned (including IP address) so that never again can come back to this platform.

    ...i hope 99site administration will consider this discussions and make an better platform with improved features. B/W...always remember that contest like project MUST have a lot better budgets than that since it is CONTEST...why buyers prefere to run a contest?, for sure to get best possible design, but then they must really grab deeper in the valet if they want it. Visit an design agency and say you want a logo design with unlimited concepts (like some of you guys here do...creating 10+ designs and submit them) and say you will pay 500 bugs for that...you will see how fast they will close the door to your face and tell you never again to come back. Thats why taking part on contest like job cant cost only $500 or whatever...the minimum award of such contests (talking only for an simple logo design) cant be under $2K...the administration should also consider this fact if they are planing to continue with this "business model". If i must be more honest...to me anything on this site seems its created only for the contest owners benefit...northing more!

    Good Luck.
