Yup, the contest is over, but Albert still needs to post the final submissions (I think he's having trouble with his PC).

I appreciate all of the awesome submissions for the contest! They were way cooler than I could have imagined (or drawn myself). I hope everyone had fun. Stay tuned for more!

The last entries submitted for the contest have now been posted--all of them may be viewed here. We'll be reviewing all the great entries over the next few days and will announce our decision soon. Then we'll print up the labels and send out the initial batch of orders for those who purchased the Redemption 5200 in advance.

Thanks again to everyone who submitted labels!

Great work everyone on those labels! Some of them are completely kick ass. I'm a professional graphic guy and most of these are way better then my entries. I'm really envious of some of the skill out there. :)

I can't decide between Alex Garza's first entry and Matthew Bowman's entry.

'Course I'd like to pick my own and win but rules are rules!

Matthew Bowman's is nice, and one of my favs, other than my own designs, of course. A definite thumbs-up to Jamie McClain's entry. Very nice and stylish.

I am wondering how many other of the entrants used their own pictures of the controllers, etc when designing these (like I did, of course!).

Thanks for the compliment. I own all the controllers I used, but I just plucked pictures from the web to get the proportions down. Then I applied my artistic license and rest is history.

I have been checking back daily wondering when the winner will be posted. Are we getting any closer to posting the results?

I will be posting the results tomorrow, they have now been decided. Just need to update the contest page, but I'm somewhat tired now, having just got home a few minutes ago. :)

Ya, I like Matts too. The one bad thing is the judges will like it and not look at the next one, mine. Oh well.

Yeah, well done Matt. Really nice labels. There was a lot of information to cram in there and you still kept the design really clean.

Just would like to say first, a congrats to matt bowman.

I am just so surprised no one picked my labels as favourites.

I did not even use that overpriced Photoshop program.

I was rated best by everyone I showed it too, even people I did not really like too much (acquaintences).

PLUS, I had each systems controller... oh well, just kind of upset bout that.

Oh, and by the way, dont even bother saying "whine whine" or whatever. I realise I am whining a little, thank you very much.

Thanks everyone for your comments. :)

For the record:

a) I own all the controllers I drew on those labels too and

b) I did not use Photoshop either. I used Adobe Illustrator. :D

Congrats Matt :D

I drew the controllers in Illustrator too :) I don't own all of them, I based my drawings on the pics from AA.

There were many excellent labels to choose from, and it just happens that we (AtariAge and Pixels Past) decided on one that we enjoyed the most and felt that it suited the product best.

This doesn't mean that you can't print out your own favorite label and stick it on the case to have your own "custom" version. :wink:
