If you mosey on over to the GUI Champs website, you'll see a pretty exciting announcement at the top of the page; our first premier sponsor! So far we've announced prizes being offered up by Stardock (software, a pile of cash and some XBox 360s), as well as what some of our friends in the community are pitching in (Microangelo Toolset 6, DeviantArt 1yr subscriptions). We made a fair number of veiled references to some mysterious "premium" sponsors but have been pretty quiet about it... until now. You'll have to go over to the GUI Champs site to see the full-details of the announcement, but I'll give you a little taste.
NVIDIA & EVGA have stepped up and provided us with two high-end graphics cards to hand out to the Most Original Icon Pack and Most Original WindowBlinds Visual Style authors! To see which cards, and the specs, head on over to the site now! NVIDIA and EVGA have long been supporters of the skinning community and we're extremely grateful that they're continuing to do so by sponsoring this event.
And be sure to check back early next week. We'll be announcing the TOP competition prize from our second premier sponsor!
