WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF REVISING HOW THIS WHOLE SYSTEM WORKS, CHECK BACK SOON.Theme Pack Submission : Rules / Guidelines[ last updated : 11.28.07 ]
=============================================
THEME PACK COMPETITION INFO:Sciphone provides a great platform for designers and artists to share their visions with users worldwide. It's about time the iPhone and iPod received the touch ( no pun intended ) of the creative community. The Theme Pack Competition is a great way to promote your artistic talent, and contribute to a thriving community of tech savvy users who are looking for that next awesome wallpaper to use on their Apple device. Here's how it works:
Every other week, a "topic" / "subject" or "theme" is chosen through the community. Users have up to a week to produce a wallpaper or multiple wallpapers that follow the theme. Submissions will be made through the forums, in the corresponding theme pack thread. Members can discuss and give feedback and criticism in that thread. At the end of the first week, submissions will be closed and the review period will begin.
Reviews will be honest and professional. If your wallpaper doesn't meet the Sciphone quality standard, we won't include it into the Theme Pack release. After the review is done, all qualifying wallpapers that have been selected to be bundled into the theme pack will be posted in the thread.
If your wallpaper was chosen, you will receive
10 Cash Out Points towards the Cash Out Rewards program. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, click here to read the Cash Out Rewards Rules / Guidelines:
