Question 1

How to submit a project?

Accepted Answer

For single images or smaller groups of files, you can email them directly. For larger submissions, please use a cloud storage service like Dropbox, iCloud Drive, Google Drive, or Microsoft Drive. Share the link to your files or attach them as needed.

Question 2

Can I submit more than one project?

Accepted Answer

Yes, multiple projects can be submitted at once. Please organize them into separate folders and share them via a cloud storage service. Each project should be clearly labeled and include a description. Please limit submissions to no more than 3 projects at a time.

Question 3

What should the description include?

Accepted Answer

The project description should provide a concise overview (100-150 words) that highlights the key details of your work. Include personal insights or background information to offer context, and explain the concept, design process, and tools or techniques used. Ensure proper acknowledgment by including credits for everyone involved, such as designers, illustrators, photographers, the fonts used in the project, and printing companies. A clear and well-structured description will enhance engagement and improve the reader's understanding of your submission.
