I think the first contest should not be too restrictive!
3 months for one theme? seems a little long...submitters should be allowed to send in previously created themes, that they haven't offered for download (yet!!!).
My suggestions:
Time
- 2 week sign-up period (all that want to participate should sign up for elegibility to be rated)
- 4 week to work on theme
- 2 weeks community polling period
- final announcement by team of judges, that have their rating scala, which takes community poll into consideration
Rewards
- I personaly would do without a prize, but understand that it will help to draw more people in
- though, maybe you can organize sponsors to offer hosting (they will have well presented adds, on all Theme Contest related pages)
Sneak Preview
- as a designer interested in participating, I can tell you, I wouldn't appreciate pre-release screenshots
anything else...see my post in the last thread...(that's another reason I don't like this new thread, now all ideas are split into two threads....
)
