[design] Calling All Designers! Super Cool Prizes!!!

Okay, you people who are designers (and you know who you are), or those who are just familiar with Quark and InDesign...

Listen Up!!!!

A local designer of note, Pariah S. Burke, has organized a little contest, see. Much good prizes! Want a chance to win a copy of Adobe InDesign CS2 with an expert support contract? And even more cool prizes?

A couple months back, Quark tried to bring errant, laggart users back on the rez, by publicizing the V6.5 upgrade complete with the ALAP XTension called ShadowCaster, giving transparency and high-quality drop shadows. To promote, they sent out a deck of six cards we like to call Quark's Postcards from The Edge.

Follow the link and read about them. They created quite a stir.

Well, we at QuarkVSInDesign.com thought that the message was a little too edgy and a little too negative. So Pariah hit upon the idea to give our fellow designer-types the chance to show what they were made of and craft pro-InDesign and pro-Quark (hey, a lot of us swing both ways) promos.

After you've read about the postcards (and perused the comments), go here and look at them prizes and peep this contest. I tell you, you people are the lucky ones...you get to enter. I just get to stand by and watch everyone snap up all the schwag.

I mean, QuarkXPress 6.5 to the first place Quark winner...how could you not?

Start brainstorming, you people. But do it quick...the deadline is approaching.

This is good stuff. Don't miss out!!!
