• What kind of graphics will be listed/accepted?

  You should keep in mind that the target audience (clients) are international companies that wish to provide their business partners or employees unique gifts. The graphics should reflect messages that various industries want to communicate. So, your goal is to convince marketing managers. For example, logistics companies want to portray that they are connecting the world in a fast and reliable way.

  You should turn on your empathy and put yourself into the role of the company (marketing manager) that wants to tell the story of its industry using graphics, then add the company logo/brand to this graphic.

  Note that the company will only select your graphics if it agrees with all the messages that your artwork communicates. That’s why we suggest you stick to more general themes and messages so that they are relevant to more companies.

  It’s very important that you own the commercial use rights to the graphics or photos. Please note that these designs will be used by global companies that take intellectual property very seriously.

• Can I sell the submitted graphics anywhere else?

  Yes, you can sell the submitted graphics, illustrations, photos wherever you like. The only limit is that you don’t use (sell) them for the same product. For example, if you have placed your graphics on the Notebook, you are not allowed to produce such notebooks privately or use the graphics for any kind of notebooks.

• What form of payment is possible?

  Payment is possible only to registered companies (due to high taxes on payments to natural person). Below, you can read the detailed instructions.
