    Thank you for the kind words, I was brought up to be open and upfront in any venture I partook upon. Bob has ben a great help on here more then most realize as this is the second time he has contributed something to me and my work on here. My first win on here was because of a graphic element he created and sent to me to get my design further for the win and on my second win he approached me and said after looking out for my new friend the use of his design concept before he opened it up to the rest of the contest holders. He is a good guy once you get to know him as it seems and once again Bob thank you!

    I just wanted to take a moment to come on here and say a huge THANK YOU to EVERY designer who submitted work for this contest. This was not an easy decision for me or my advisory board. All of you have great talent and skill and I can not be happier with the turn out and competition.

    Silver, Rofe, Bob, Pegastinas, you four in particular did a GREAT job with entry after entry and I hope to see you all in my future contest, as well as contest of my friends. I will be suggesting you all to them. GREAT WORK!

    Pegastinas, great work on the text. It was just tough to pass up the bulb work of Silver and Rofe. I'm sure you will do very well in future contest here.

    Bob, thank you for allowing others to build off of YOUR original idea. I have not lost sight of that and thank you for setting the bar high in this competition.

    Rofe, thank you for not giving up when we all thought Silver's logo was the one and only. The web 2.0 feel that a key partner felt your design brought to life is what made the decision to go with your bulb as well happen. Congrats!

    Silver, where do I start. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! You are the epitome of what CUSTOMER SERVICE is all about. You made revision after revision in a timely fashion. You not once complained when you had many reasons to curse my name as the host. I look forward to truly doing business with you both here at 99 designs and directly. Congrats on winning the contest outright!

    It has been a pleasure and I can't wait to do this again! I hope my feedback along the way has been appreciated and objective enough to help you all as designers.

    -Coach Johnson

    Thanks rofe, the host wanted the subtext enlarged some that is why it is off.

    Thanks guys! Designabot, I admire your work too!

    Silver, watch the tracking of the "Inspiratude" characters.
    And try to align the "L" of "Leadership" with the second "I" of "Inspiratude". It works much better. Take a look of my #66 entry.

    Good luck!

    Looks like this contest has created quite a stir. Again I appreciate the hard work all of you have put forth. I not savvy enough from a design standpoint to be able to tell what's traced vs. freehand, but all entries have looked great regardless.

    So long as the description in the brief is met, our firm will be happy. We also need to be able to expand the logos for use on banners. I have a creative guru who will inspect the final images to ensure it works well in the future.

    How long have all of you been designing and what do you like most about 99 Designs? I'm a first time user but this has been great experience in large part thanks to all of you!

    Thanks Bob for the support, I think I will eventually upgrade to CS but don't want the money to do it yet when I have something that works perfect for me. Is CS harder then 10 and is there anything worth it to upgrade to?

    Silver, I know how you feel. I had the same issue awhile back on anther site, I created fan based meshes from several shows for free and had them posted on scifi-meshes.com and some jerk used them and sold several hundred posters on crestock before I found out and the guy just got banned from there.

    Your right about the trace it's not on 10 but only in the latest version of illustrator CS series.
    For several years I used Illustrator 10 and recently upgraded to CS3 but I find trace more clunky then what you created Silver. Still a good design.

    FYI there is no trace in Illustrator 10! That is in CS1, 2 & 3 if I am not mistaken.

    As for istock, anyone could have used my model and textures to create that image and sell it... Just think they did a poor job with the lensflare on the filament.
