Hi, I'm trying to win a design competition. The problem is that I need to get alot of fb-likes on my design to win, the first prize consists of the custom made skies with the design that I choose and some skiing clothes.

Of course I want a pair of skies with diablo theme! Im thinking of asking one of all the fan art-artist if I could use their painting for the skies.

Anyway do u think you could support me with liking the contribution on facebook when its ready?

here's an example of what it could look like!

I'll keep you posted!

so you want to take a Fanart from another artist (with one of his original creations)
(http://tobylewin.deviantart.com/#/d4camhj) and write Diablo III with a premade font in a corner and call that that "designing" ?

wow what the hell is wrong with people nowadays , its mindboggling that people think - that this is a legit thing to do ...

He's paying someone to design something for him. I don't see what's wrong with that.

Designing a snowboard would be a lot easier. Skis are too narrow and long to get a very good image on.

It's a neat idea, I'd go with more of a flamey Diablo theme, as it's a nice contrast to snow.

I'd also read the forum rules

Its not really a design competition, it's a get-most-likes-on-facebook-competition. So the thing I asked for was the support from this community, on the premesis that fans of diablo would like a diablo themed contribution. No one is making any money out of this, except the possibility to win the skies if enough people like the skies (in other word; diablo fans).

and the picture above was only an example of how the actual contribution could look like AFTER i had gotten the permission from the artist!

maybe you should read the text more careful next time.

oh right winning expensive equipement is no profit, giving away once own art freely so that someone else can possibly win said equipement is also very normal thing to do - and going to a d3 forum to beg for likes is also pretty selfless
