  1. Any news on the Creamer Awards?

  2. Updated the OP with 2015's winners and HOF inductees. Congrats again to all the winners!
  3. I believe Brandon's last post answers that question: We have full time jobs and commitments outside the boards. So yes, compiling a list of the best concepts over the past year has been relegated to a few minutes a day in most of our situations. Sticking to an arbitrary deadline isn't exactly a top priority . Thanks in advance for your patience.
  4. Jordan, Brandon -- thanks for stepping up. Lots going on in the past month, so I honestly haven't had much free time.
  5. If you have a website or Instagram username, use that as part of your watermark. That's how you get free publicity
  6. Every January, amigo. That's our plan, anyway.
  7. To be honest, I think the best defense (even more so than watermarks and all that) is being an active part of a network like Dribbble, Behance, or even here. I've gotten tips from people I've spoken to maybe once before on work that was being shared without attribution, all because I was visible and active on those networks. So, while it may be tempting to shell up and watermark the ever-living out of your work, keep creating, keep posting it, and the general community will (usually) keep an eye out for your work. Think about it -- there are guys who post work all the time, and you know their styles. I hate to use the ever-common example of Fraser, but his work is unique and he spreads it far and wide. When someone steals his work, everyone knows because they've seen it somewhere. The more often you create those exposure opportunities, the more likely you'll be alerted by a fellow community member (if you don't catch it yourself). If I see something familiar, I always look around to see if it's something I recognize for a reason, and then let the artist know. Yu Masuda's Bengal actually made it on to one of MVPTees' shirts, so I sent him a quick note. We're much stronger as a community, think of it that way. It sucks that it happens, but threads like this give me a little bit of hope that our work is somewhat protected still.
  8. I posted something, but I'm sure he'll delete mine too. Reported the post, too. I'll let Fraser know, he's good about this stuff (and entertaining)
  9. I seem to recall seeing this Detroit Lions logo posted on here as well: http://mvptees.com/collections/frontpage/products/dencopy Yep, pretty sure that's -(dp)-'s work...
  10. That's kinda my point. His bio now says "I make my own designs/logos and. (post concepts from all over )" I asked him to stop 2 months ago, and he posted more. It wont stop me from creating and posting. Its just really annoying I'm working on it. Then we can report the same way as the other account.
  11. Looks like mvptees is out of commission -- no posts on their account. Nice work guys!
  12. 3/100 would be perfect. I have also volunteered (and will continue to) to be a concepts moderator. It's something that's sorely missing, as GotPixels' flameout thread proved.
  13. We'll be announcing the nominees for the 2013 Creamer Awards this evening! Stay tuned.
  14. A big thank you to the award's namesake for pinning this for us. It appears that no one lords over concepts as a mod anymore (and Gary for sending Chris a message on FB for us). We're shooting for a 4/1 announcement of nominees, pending the panel's schedules. We've got nearly 50 pages of concepts threads to sift through, so it will take some time to gather a list.
  15. Seconded. The fact that a thread hasn't been pinned since 2010 is a bit concerning... I've reached out to several mods and haven't heard back. It'd be nice if we had a mod for (or at least a current mod that watched) the concepts section...
