Ipad_contest_header

The iPad is here and we're hard at work on releasing Infectious skins for this awesome little device. But it just ain't no fun, without some new designs made just for the iPad from the Infectious community. And we're giving the best skin design their own iPad with their skin attached. How's that?

(Note: Apple is in no way affiliated with Infectious and they definitely did not endorse this design challenge).

Remember:

  • No design on the front of the iPad. Just on the back.
  • Please use the iPad design submissions kit and composite your design.
  • Winning designs may be translated into other products.
  • Voting lasts for two weeks and winners are chosen by the community and Team infectious.

depending on how big they are, you could probably get a laptop skin and trim it …

does the logo light up like the macbooks?

probably a good idea to start officially doing ipad skins tho.

working on it. the logo doesn’t light up on the ipad. would you want a skin that framed the front as well as the back, or just the back? any opinions?

I think having the design just on the back would look good, maybe still have the option for a hole to show the apple logo even if it doesn’t light up?

Really badly want to get an ipad and i dont know why!? Dont think its out yet in the UK but when it is might have to check it out.
People who have the ipad is it worth the hype?

I’m waiting for v2 so all of the glitches are fixed then haha. What glitches? I don’t know, but there are bounds to be some.

i have an iphone and just bought a used Macbook … I really dont see a need for the ipad for me. That screen just seems to be BEGGING to be scratched. At least a laptop or netbook has a lid to close to protect it.

Yeah! Also, I feel like everyone around me will be able to see what I’m doing on the iPad. Not like there’s a lid or something. If anything I would invest in a Macbook next too.

iPad comes out in the UK late next month.

If you want a lid then just buy a cover. There’s the official one and loads more on eBay which look cool.

There shouldn’t be too many bugs because it’s just i giant iPod Touch so they should have all the bugs sorted.

I keep trying to talk myself out of buying one since it’s not a necessity but so far the Apple shop is wining!

Hey guys, I might have missed something somewhere but is this open to US residents only? If not will the Ipad be sent to the winner be in the verison that matches their country, eg US/Europe/Asia? I’ve heard the US ones don’t work here in the UK but I might be wrong!

no- this is open to all. if we can’t get you an ipad in your country, we’ll get you the cash equivalent.

Are we only aloud one iPad design submission?

 
Admin_badge

timroberts

you can do multiple, but we recommend people focus on quality over quantity.

Tim,
I’ve had several people tell me they cannot see my submission, but they can see other submissions. I can see it on my computer and many other people who have voted for my work are able to see the image. I finally had the opportunity to see the site on a computer that did not display my art, and there were several other’s submissions that were x’d out as well. Something you could please check on… thanks!!!’
