This is one of the entries for the Rossi Create it Contest. Honestly, I have no idea what was up with the judging with that. No idea. This SEMIFINALIST entry literally has the K2 logo on it.

I am speechless.

Oh, and it also blatantly has more than 5 colors on the topsheet, as it has a gradient on it

mine looked soooo cool, i spent like 5 hours on mine, and it was so easily better than like half of those, but then i read ALL the rules and i realised you cant do it in paint.

so I emailed rossignol asking where the other 20 was and why they decided to take ones that didnt obey the rules of the contest, and they emailed back with a lot of helpful information.

Thanks for your participation.
Thanks for the quality of your designs.

You send us more than 2000 designs, now begins the final selection.

Come on rossignol.com to vote for your 6 best designs out of the 100 winners.

Good ride

the ski design at the beginning of the thread was created by a member of the K2 message boards over a year ago. looks like someone stole the design and submitted it as their own. it's a sick graphic up close, very detailed with some really good work put into it. it sucks that the real artist isn't going to get credit for it, though.
