ShirtPrize Round #1 - Voting Underway

The polls are open on the first round of Shirtprize. There are only 10 entries to vote on in this first round, but we kind of knew that would happen given that we only started promoting this a few days ago. We stopped taking entries promptly at 9 p.m., even though we got a couple entries not long after the cut-off time. Vote away and please feel free to use the comments to make constructive remarks.

Here's the good news: We'll be taking entries each and every day (24/7) for the next round of competition. So if you didn't get in this round, fear not, you can always submit a design for Round #2 of Shirtprize.

Finally, a word about cheating: Don't.

(Okay, couldn't leave it at one word. So here's the thing: even though we joked about giving away 5,000,000 in prize money - asterisk, caveat, stipulation - the reality is that ShirtPrize isn't about the cash. It's about putting your art out there and getting people's feedback. So please don't vote for yourself repeatedly or try to use technology to outsmart the system. That only makes you good at cheating - not at designing art for a shirt. We've installed Statcounter and made it open for public viewing, so if you're trying to game the system, some other smart technie - ie, not us - will track you and out you.)
