representative of PiNKiTUDE in some way.

Frequently Asked Questions



1. Why can't I open the resource pack images?

The assets provided are overwhelmingly EPS files (Encapsulated PostScript). This particular file type works best with common Adobe applications like Photoshop and Illustrator, as well as with Corel Painter. On most Operating Systems, EPS files do not automatically have a default application association, meaning if you double-click on them they may not open in Photoshop/Illustrator/Painter. If you own any of these programs, try using the Open dialog from within them to gain access to the EPS files.



2. Can I submit more than one entry?

Yes, you may submit as many entries as you like !



3. What if I win the scooter but I don't live anywhere near LA?

Vespa will be made available to the prize winner in Los Angeles CA or shipped as directed from Los Angeles CA.  deviantART will follow the instructions for shipment arranged by the winner but at the winner's cost.



4. If I get chosen to be in the book, do I have to pay?

No, if your entry is selected, you agree in advance to being PAID a $100.00 rights payment for your entry to be included in the book.



5. Does the entry have to be made specifically for the contest?

Yes, you cannot submit an image to this contest that you've submitted previously.  You must create an image specific to this contest.



6. If my entry wins, do I lose the rights of my own art?

No, the rights payment is simply to compensate the artist for use of their image within the book (should that occur).
