hi there! i dont know if this is the rigth place for this but… mmmh
i have submitted two designs (one for iphone i think and other for ipod) both are now “closed” one with 68% and the second with 91%. the first one was closed about two or three weeks ago, but i dont know whats happen to it. is it going to be a product? if not can i make modifications to inprobe it ?
(sorry for my english! i dont understand much and write worst than i read!)

thanks!!!!

The step I am refering to is saving a Jpeg from photoshop. It only gives a choice of the quality (from 1-12). It doesn’t give a choice of pixel ratio. I am trying to figure this one out, but if you, or anyone, has suggestions please let me know. Thanks.

Uuuuuuuu, how exactly do I submit art? I don’t wan’t to enter a contest, I just want to make a shop and sell. How do I get to my shop anyway? Do I have to use special templates?

This is probably a simple question and answer.

I want to submit a design for the “cut to the core contest”— My design fits the bottom area of the template provided. (.eps template).

The step I’m having trouble with is compositing to the laptop. My design integrates the apple logo in the middle and I don’t know how to match it up on the laptop. I tried using the photoshop distort and skew tools. Any suggestions would be a big help?

Thank You :)

Hello, I have an Illustrator 9.0 on my computer, so the skateboardsubmission kit stuff is one up from what I need to work my design with. Is it possible to get the file as a pdf or at least a workable file for my version?

Hi Tim.. i have and question here.. how long it takes to submit a design..
i was submit a design on a skatedecks contest last night, and i can see my design on the skatedecks contest catalog this night..
it says “…pending review from our Art Department….” how long it takes.. just get curious about it :)

thanks..

I already have my design on a 8×11 copy paper. The only photo generated programs I have iPhoto and Aperture :/. Honestly I have barely any Mac photoshoping knowledge but I do have creativity. Ooh and to mikeyion, I bought your product :P. What is the age range if there is one (because you would be surprised by my age)?
Obviously, I need a more step-by-step instruction on how to upload my design.

THANKSS

Hi
I am trying to prepare a couple of pieces for submission to “cut to the core”. I have completed two designs but when I try to composite the design on the laptop, the Apple logo is off centre. Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Aonghus

D: NOO
When i use the word apple it refers to Macintosh Apple and it creates a positive suggestion to Apple. http://www.infectious.com/voting/pocomas/life-in-color/3276, http://www.infectious.com/voting/bumarya/macman/3243 and http://www.infectious.com/voting/zackshackleton/twilight/3045 have some copyrighted materials such as Walt Disney’s Mickey, Pacman, and Twilight so I had a feeling it would be Okay.
ESPECIALLY this design that I find interesting http://www.infectious.com/voting/threecreative/urban-office/2983 has a big use of Apple products.
well i guess i have to create a new design in three days.
Thank You for making me aware, otherwise my design might’ve not gotten anywhere.

Hi Desertar,
You can submit your design for the People and Robots: Best Friends Forever contest here: http://www.infectious.com/submissions/people_robots/get_started

If you have any more questions you can email me directly at christina@infectious.com

Good luck!

i submitted 3 design none of them are accepted by infectious don’t know why..

Hi krish1725 – I emailed you directly about this. Cheers Joey (joey@infectious.com)

Hi. How can we delete the uploaded designs?
Also is there a limit of submissions on voting per person?

Okay, first I drew and colored a mimobot design. And they said good start, admit it for others to give me advice. So I did that. Then, I started coloring my designs on the computir and got the same result. I don’t mind submitting them for other artists to give meadvice first, but I am frustrated with infectous for not giving me a reason for the rejection AND for not answering simple questions like; " are black and white considered one of the 8 colors"?

I recently submitted one design for Mimobot contest, but It appears at “Open Submissions”… could it be possible to relocate it in the right place?
(http://www.infectious.com/voting/alexraveland/cooper-20/4388)
Thank you!

Thanks Joey!! You’re the best!! :D

hi! I usually paint on toys… now I try to use Artweaver for the Mimobot design challenge … but this program can’t read .psd files… mh.. how can I do? …thx.

I am very new to this site.
I just put up my first design!
and it got selected too..
I want to know where do i get to vote for it?

@Elanz Currently you have to win Open Submissions with a submitted design in order for it to be sold in the catalog. We’ll keep you updated if anything changes though :)

@NathanHowell
These sizes are independent from each other. The 15″ × 10″ size is for producing your design in the case of it winning our contest. The 650px by 800px size is for submitting your art to be viewed in our voting gallery. We suggest starting with designing for the 15″ × 10″ size then scaling your design down to 650px by 800px. Make sure you keep a copy of the 15″ × 10″ version in case you win!

Welcome!

hello

Hey hairgod1. I’ve asked one of our designers to help you out with your question. He’ll be in touch shortly. Sorry for the delay.

Hi, is there any color limitations for the art works. Or can we submit full color designs.

I’d like to place a custom order, is there a way to just send you an .ai or .eps file rather than using your online customization tool? Are there templates that I can use? I’m interested in the getting a few items to reward the songbird developer community (http://getsongbird.com), couple of skateboards and few laptop skins.

Ok, I wanted to take advantage of the promo, that ends today, so please let me know. Thanks!

Hi, Can I submit photographs ( taken by me and touched up digitally) to the skins competitions.

When is the next contest?

Hi, i can’t submit my work from critique to open submission
This message always appears:

“Oh noes! Validation failed: Content type is not included in the list”

it’s in jpg format

It’s still under open submission but only in critique section. I think the critique section for “incognito” is filed separately. even so, how do i submit it to voting?

i was thinking of submitting another and have the other one deleted..

@ergg-13 normally you have to resubmit a new version with a different name as our system does not allow multiple designs with the same name.

Let me know what design in Critique you want deleted and I can help you with that (joey@infectious.com). Once the name has been removed from the system you should be able to upload your amended version to Open Submissions.

Hope that helps!

Deleted as promised! Let me know if you need any more help. Lovely design btw!

Hi,I am having trouble in uploading my design to Open Submissions. after
pushing the botton “submit your design” it tells me that the page i’m trying to access is not there!

Here is the whole message:

“Where’d it go?
Looks like the page you were trying to access is not there.
Please go back or try again”

Can you please tell mw what is the problem!

it might not be the best way, but in photoshop I’d take a flattened image and go edit > transform > distort > and then line the corners of your image up with the corners of the device photo. Again – there may be a better way, but this works alright for 650 px wide images.

I uploaded my image and I didn’t realize until now that there were templates that I could use.
Is it possible to remove my submission and submit it again on a template?

Image is called Seaweed, by Miho Akiyama

I hope that’s Ok.

Thanks!

Hi, I keep getting an error message saying something about validation. content type is not included in list? i followed all the directions. and everything is under the size limit. and it’s the right size (wxl) so i have no idea what i’m doing wrong. also, i haven’t submitted to the critique area, so that’s not the problem. :/ my files are adobe photoshop JPEG files.

please help!

Hello, can anyone help be with the templates, when I download them my PC says the file is empty, same results for all templates, a little help please.

Hi, I’m very new here, yesterday I joined this site. I discovered infectious on the blog of nate frizzell, someone’s work I began to learn to know (and love) at society 6, and so as he is an artist who paints, I made the step to join this site here, because I’m an artist too, with mostly paintings. as I am a member on the site of society 6, I had the opportunity to see my work printed on t-shirts and laptopskins and so…which I find a very nice idea (in europe and especially belgium where I’m from, you don’t see these things so often as in america, I talk about laptop-, I-phone and I-pod-skins), and I find it again here on this site, but here there are contests too, what makes it even greater!! it’s a beautifull way to spread out the work af artists allover the world!!

but now…how do I begin, I don’t understand…I understand that I need to have submission to upload any of my works…but how can I do this? yesterday when I joined I began to create (the create-button) a print, so I uploaded one of my works from my pc and now it seems that I have a print in my shop…but that’s not the wright way to do, I think… I saw on the reading here above that I have to put my work in “open submission”, but I don’t find out where I can do this… I even don’t have the blue icon “artist” on my name…
(it don’t help me that I’m not so good in my english too…, but I try)
can somebody help me out here please??
thanks a lot!

i tried to submit my design but a pop came after i clicked on preview that said “oops, validation failed, size is not on the list”

Hi
I am trying to fit my design onto an ipad template. Can you explain what I can do in photoshop to shape my image on the template so that it fits the curves realistically?

Hello Guys

I want to send my submission tomorrow (March 3) but I cant find anywhere an option to submit the 300dpi template based (ipad, laptop, etc). I quote: “The image must be exactly 650px wide by up to 800px tall, and should be saved as a 24-bit PNG or a high quality JPG, whichever is smaller in size. Max file size is 250Kb”. Are the templates just for us to test our designs?

Many thanx!
