There must be a typo in your project brief. As obviously you don't mean you're offering $200 for 50 backgrounds? That would only be $4 per background. Which would obviously be so far below minimum wage it's a joke. Hence you have no entries. You should re-address the wording of your request, to make it clear what you are asking for, and hat you're offering in return.

This is something I would be able to help you out with, but you'll need to make it a lot clearer how much your offering to pay.

As it stands, it makes it look like your offering less than the cost of the electricity it would cost to power the computer that would be used to create the designs for you, let alone the time and skill of the designer doing it.

If you're after quality results with designs that your company can sell, then you need to ask yourself what the value of getting those professional designs is to your company. As with every contest on here, the closer you come to offering a reasonable price for a job, the higher the interest you are going to receive from designers.

I'll keep an eye on the contest, and if you clarify the brief a bit more, as I said I may be able to help you out.

Good luck with it.

1. What are the dimensions you want the images to have?

I personally created 100 of these yesterday in about 4 hours. I also have a design firm in Austin, TX that is producing them for $5 each. All in all it''s a somewhat "mindless" project design-wise. I''m not looking for home-runs, I''m looking for VOLUME. Your idea of a great design for a cover can very well be construed as crap by some as well as a design masterpiece by others. Keep in mind, the designs will be overlaid with text, photographs, etc. when it''s all said and done.

Thanks for your comments!

100 in 4 hours...a little too long... :).
I understood the ideea. It should be something like some minutes per model, not too much thinking, but good looking.You can count on me for future projects... :))

I see the project is still open. Shouldn't be closed? I'm new here, maybe i dont now something.

Thanks and good luck!

:) 4 $ for something like that is too much. I did one proposal, because i had no time, when i saw this project. I did 35 backgrounds in 20 minutes, and this on the run. Of course, it helped me that i have lots of pictures token be myself. But the ideea is just to be creative...very fast. Not really to do art.. Or, maybe i didn't understood the ideea...
