Thank You to all the designer who submitted designs for our first contest. We have learned a lot from this contest and will make strides to improve our new contests. We purposely left this contest very vague just to see what you all came up with and there were some great designs, too many in fact! It was very difficult to decide, so difficult indeed that we actually had a company wide vote on the designs to narrow them down to the last two, then we let our customers give their opinions. We are very happy to say we have chosen a winner. Thank you all again.

Some of the designers have seemed confused by the way we are judging the contest. Basically we have 5 individuals judging each design. For the final review and winner selection (Monday 6/16) we will all be together in one room to decide. Until that point each of the judges is placing one star next to the designs they like and hopefully leaving comments. So if there are only 1 or two stars that either means that only one or two of us felt the design was right for us or that only one or two of us has reviewed the design. If all 5 of us have reviewed the design and it had less than 4 stars, we will eliminate the design and will leave comments.
