I really wish people would stop supplying stockpilers with free design work, I know that most of these kids have no idea just how creepy things can get it the commercial art sector. They think they are helping someone out, and so they get into contests and logo this, and t-shirt that. Most of these people needing work are either stockpilers or lazy bastards that are looking for free, or nearly free material for a job that will pay THEM big money. They know that these kids don't copywrite, and they can cover their ass further by by making minor changes to the design. The internet provides a real ripe and furtile valley for pirates. You figure for each little contest they can get a few hundred freebies. I really hate to see talentless bastards making money on the talent and kindness of others.

Oh yeah, and it's this type of activity that makes it possible for some designers to work their entire life and never come up with a single idea. The real atrosity is that some of these kids may want to get a job in at a design firm someday, but their will be this little toad sitting in their office, recieving their money.
