Paintbits and WebHS Wallpaper Contest
Paintbits and WebHS have joint venture to bring you a Wallpaper Contest with a 1st Place Reward.
WebHS
WebHS has been the Webhosting of Paintbits since day one, allowing me to build my project without any hosting worries. If you’ve been a usual visitor to my website you know that it’s been up and running for 99.99% uptime since the last 2 years when I launched Paintbits, this is possible due to WebHS, thanks you guys!
The Contest
To celebrate our partnership for the last 2 years we are creating a small contest here on Paintbits. Since Paintbits is website aimed at digital compositions but mostly desktop customizations, more specifically Wallpapers it made sense to make the contest about this subject.
To enter the contest you need to submit a Wallpaper with the minimum resolution of 1280×960 featuring the WebHS Logo. The theme of the wallpaper is your choice, it can be anything, be creative! If you need inspiration you have a lot to choose from.
I have made two really quick examples. This is not what you should aim, this is just to show you 2 simple and distinct examples of something you could do. My examples are very simple and took me little time, I would expect something a lot more artistic!
Example 1: Something Futuristic.
You can see a more Traditional example here.
The Rules
You need to:
1. Submit a Wallpaper with a minimum resolution of 1280×960px, An Android Mobile Resolution of 640×480 and an Iphone Resolution of 320×480. You can submit more than 1 work.
2. The Wallpaper need to feature the WebHS Logo, that you can get here. The Theme of the wallpaper can be anything expect any obscene theme.
3. After you submit your work you grant its rights to WebHS.
4. You need to submit your work to greven@paintbits.com till the 31 of May.
The Prize
Other than the best 3 works being exposed on Paintbits and linked to your website the first place will also win an Year of Hosting on the WebHS Servers. If you’re thinking of doing a new project, putting a CV online or simply building your first Website, this is a great opportunity. The Hosting planned offered is the HS G2 with a worthy price of 130€ (165$)! The decision will be voted between me and 2 representatives of WebHS.
Deadline
The wallpaper submissions deadline will be the 31 of May 2010.
Portuguese Translation
I’m Portuguese, WebHS is Portuguese and since we would like for Portuguese people to participate in this contest as well, I’m going to do a quick translation of the Text in order for those that don’t speak/read English fluently.
