Water marking should be a standard part of any entry.

Contests on GFY however are pretty much a waste of time. The only contest I can remember which should serve as an example to those thinking about holding a contest on GFY was Vendot's.

Any designer though is better off giving their full to paid work rather then wasting a moment on such side distractions.

I recently prepared a submission for a contest, and later sold off that work privately, upon realizing the contest is likely to end up open ended. (An assumption formed from the holder's past contest track record at GFY.)

$50 short of the prize amount is in the bank, while other entrants are still patiently awaiting a winner to be chosen and paid out.

Contest?s are a bit of an oddity, and it?s always designer beware.
