First of all a disclaimer, I am not involved with this site at all. I am just passing along news of this contest (which I think is pretty exciting) to my digital pals. Scrapblog is offering two $1000 prizes every month for designers who create themes for the Scrapblog site. For more info http://jenniahart.com/blog/2006/04/2...s-can-win-big/

ALSO of note- They are battling piracy as well. See the link on my blog. This is pretty cool stuff. Big $$$ for digital designers and a site dedicated to protecting designer's intellectual property!

Pretty cool stuff!!!!

Okay, I checked this out and the requirements are:

Stickers: Vector or png (preferable vector formatS) max 200x200 10 required
Frames: Vector only Outer: 310x450 Inner cutout: 275x660 (Doesn't have to be exact)
3 required
Backgrounds: Vector only 770x520 3 required
Patterns: Vector only 770x520 3 required

They don't state what dpi is required.......I'm assuming 72.

I guess I won't be entering.......DIP doesn't use vectors.

I saw this as well, but don't have a clue about vector graphics. I e-mailed the site to get more details and someone said he'd get back to me, but I haven't heard anything.

I emailed and they said something about jpg's being too large. I can't remember exactly. It is really only meant for web albums and not for printing out.

I also checked this site out, please read the fine print. I believe you sign over your copyright to them as well.

Don't quote me on this, but I believe they want it in "vector" graphic format BECAUSE vector graphics are scalable without degradation. I am assuming that they want whatever it is to be scalable up or down without losing quality. At least that is my assumption.
