Help / What should I do with my contest once its in review?

Once your contest is finished, it enters a review period and you have 14 days to pick a winner. We suggest that you shortlist a number of candidate winning designs, and then check the following:

* Originality of Design

We strongly recommend that you only award prizes to designs based solely on original work. Original designs should not include stock photography or clipart images, and the designers should not need to supply any fonts—text should be rasterized or saved as an outline. Check with your shortlisted designers that either:

o The design is 100% original and therefore won't attract any further license fees.

o Rights to any non-original components of the design (such as clipart, stock imagery or fonts) are available to you. The specific costs and rights available vary greatly, so it's important to check this with the rights holder.

* Quality and Format

Double-check that the format the designer will supply you with is what you expect. If you're unsure check with your printer or web developer, or check out "What should I ask the winning design provide?" for more details.
