well, to tell you the truth I agree with you, but reality is that in my case it was a quickie. So quick I forgot one hand and I fixed it

Yet I consider I put enough effort on it for the prize. I'd say more than that, but again, in your spirit, I don't like to do things hald finished.

For what it worth :)

Hmm, okay. Well, most good designers are VERY busy, hence they don't have alot of free time. Since a contest is only the POSSIBLITY to make money, most designers cannot afford to spend alot of time on them. Unless contest holders are offering 2-3 times what it would cost to get the average designer to design something, designers feel like they could make better use of their time actually designing for clients who are certain income. Why spend the same amount of time on a $50 gallery contest that you would on a regular gallery when you have 5 people lined up wanting to DEFINATELY give you $50 for galleries?

So why do designers enter contests at all? Some do it for money because they don't have any jobs at the moment. Some do it for fun in their spare time. Some do it for the advertising to get their work seen. Other designers probably have other reasons.

The bottom line is that no one likes to spend alot of time on a "chance" to get something when they have a sure thing going at the same price level. Most of the entries in the average priced contests are either newbies who need money very much, or people who join in for fun in their spare time, like me. So when a good designers enter a contest simply because they have a spare moment, then they want people to know that it is not representative of the work a potential client would receive if paying for work.
