UBD Designer Contest Announced

Posted: February 11, 2008 by Matt Blancarte Filed Under: Blog | 2,076 views

We are excited to announce our first-ever UBD Designer Contest! UBD is scouting for designers who consider themselves to be the best of the best, and hopefully that is you.

What’s this all about?

UBD wants you to design a Premium Blog Theme that will be distributed to the masses! This theme will be made available to the public for free. If you’ve had any experience in design and you understand the bleeding-edge of blog design and functionality, this is your chance to get your name out there and to work with Unique Blog Designs on future projects.

OK… so what do I win?

If your design is chosen from the bunch, you will receive:

  • $250 CASH PRIZE!
  • A link on the theme, which will be widely distributed because it will be free!
  • The opportunity to work with UBD on future projects!

If you’re a top-notch freelancer looking to find some extra cash and a steady stream of work, this is right up your alley!!!

Wow, that sounds ridiculously awesome. So… How do I participate?

All you have to do is send an email to us at contest [at] uniqueblogdesigns [dot] com and tell us that you’re interested! From there, you’ll receive all of the necessary information to get started and complete your design.

*UPDATE*: Once you’ve emailed or shown interest in entering, we will add you to our list. You will receive an email on March 1st with all of the design details. All entries are due on March 10th, no later than 11:59 PM MST.

We will be announcing the winner on March 15th, so the sooner you get started and submitted, the better.

So that’s it?

Yes, it is that simple! You design a theme, we provide the reward and a rare opportunity to work exclusively for Unique Blog Designs.

We are very excited to see the level of skill and professionalism that is out there looking for opportunity, so don’t let this pass you up. Best of luck to you!!!

    You’re welcome, WDG. I’m not sure what you mean by “starters,” but you will receive an email on March 1st with contest details if you’re interested.

    Jeez, I just saw the time frame. -> 10 days!
    Guess I will have to plan everything to get a couple extra hours in every day for this :)

    You actually have until March 10, which still gives you more than two weeks. We look forward to seeing your entry!

  8. PhillipNo Gravatar said on February 18th, 2008 at 7:49 am

    Nate, according to the post we will only receive the design details on the 1st of March which makes it 10 days then. Am I understanding this correct?

  9. Nate WhitehillNo Gravatar said on February 18th, 2008 at 6:11 pm

    Sorry for the confusion. We actually changed it so now we will deliver the details to you immediately upon your request for more information.
