What it does
GFX Contests is an online forum that brings top graphic designers and those in need of a graphic designer together in the form of a contest. Project owners post design contests through the site, and designers compete to create the best image. To host a contest, a subscription to the site must be purchased. Both designers and project owners who post contests must be registered with the site. All contests have guidelines and a definite end date. The design winner for every contest receives a prize, such as a monetary reward. Contests with the largest prizes always receive the most participants.
In their own words
“GFX Contests is a place where design seeking clients are connected with graphic designers who will compete for their business. By hosting a design contest with us, you'll be able to choose from a great selection of different designs created by many talented designers.”
Why it might be a killer
GFX Contests is a cost-effective way for project owners to connect with potential designers. It is also a simple way for talented designers to find potential jobs. The efficiency of the GFX method has potential to attract quality participants from both sides of graphic design.
