I need help for votes.. It may seem a bit biased if you just view mine and vote, so you can look and see what the competition is: http://www.84silver.com/contest_browse.php

Mine is currently in 2nd place (Searing Fire), and I'm not liking my position because I feel my design is better, although my opinion doesn't speak for everyone of course. My design could be much better if I didn't have to use TI's ugly flash tool to create it, but.. eh. If I win the most votes in my state, I get a free TI-84+SE. If I win in the entire thing and get the Grand Prize, I get $1000 for myself, then a TI Navigatorand 30 ti-84+SE's for the school of my choice. I'm the only guy in the top 5 entries right now...

Third place looks great and all, but if you knew about this stuff, you'd know that the background with all the planets and such is a pre-made background that anyone can use. All that guy did was put 11 random stamps on it. That's all. The point of this competition is to make a new and original design, not use an old one and add random uselessly crap on it. Well anyways, I was just hoping I could get support from you guys and gets some votes in. If you don't want to vote for me that's fine. I'm just asking for help here.

I voted

, I hope you'll win but.... what you'll do with 30 84+SE? O_O

(I must be misunderstanding somthin...)

EDIT: ah I see you GIVE the 84+SE to the school of your choice. Still, the $1000 is nice

sound cool, would be better without the big bunch of small rings and better with a black background

I've all but lost all hope on winning the grand prize because from the looks of it, a few certain people are more than obviously cheating and rocketing ahead of *everyone*, but TI doesn't seem to really care. So in my last attempt of this contest, I've started a petition that you can sign: http://www.petitiononline.com/graphiti/petition.html

I have not cheated, I have no desire to, and I have a pure heart of winning this, but if I lose against a bunch of cheaters, I will be emotionally destroyed. They do say the good guys always win though, so.. I'll just hope for a bit longer. No telling what the next 2 1/2 months will hold for me.

this really sucks to see ppl cheat, considering they just want the $1000 and wont bother about calcs at all. Also the tools they give to make our designs are inneficient and the is lot of lacking features, not mto mention its really slow. I didnt even bothered making a design because of that, even though I can win $1000 (well not a big pb for me since with my job I can get that in 5 weeks), those cheaters are really lame. :angry:

I signed the petition

I wish someone from the ti community will win, like you, especially since your design rocks.

oh and I dunno but I think I didnt said it yet: welcome here

6 more votes and i'm tied for state

i dunno what i would do with ANOTHER 84+SE, but i have a good idea... the guy who taught me to program doesnt have his own calc, so i would probably give it to him...cuz he is really cool...

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #10 on:** August 02, 2005, 11:06:00 am »

sound like an idea, or sell it to him

to get more money to buy a 89t

I would have participated too, but the contest found me on vacation until August 15, and I can't rush a design, esp. with the shitty tool they made available. Why couldn't they allow Photoshop?

I also think that the idea of these stickers is bs to begin with
