Welcome to our NEW Design Team Throwdown Blog! We are super excited about the move, and hope that it will encourage more of you to gather up your teams and participate. In case you don't already know, the DT Throwdown is a fun and furious (but friendly) competition between design teams to show their stuff. The winner receives massive bragging rights, featured banner space on our Smeared and Smudged Forum and Facebook Page, and the honor of choosing the next challenge theme.
The competition is intense, the projects are beyond inspirational, and the teams are diverse and outstanding. The best of the best! We hope you will enjoy the monthly challenge as either a participating team or an observer, and don't forget to vote when the time comes!
Now for a little housekeeping...the official rules of the DT Throwdown are located in the left sidebar. Be sure to look them over. There is also a "quick start" mini-guide, cleverly presented by our skeleton king, in the right sidebar for any teams that want to join in. Follow the four steps and you're in! Finally, once teams have submitted their banner, no need to resubmit for each challenge unless you have made a change to it. Just remember to send in your theme each month before voting starts! And finally, please remember that each project must contain at least 1 stamped images, either rubber or digital.
Okay, there you have it. Now on to the fun part!
