GarrettsBridges WPBD Local Contest

The Contest is over!

Thanks to everyone who participated. In order to collect your winnings you must send an email to the contact email on the scoreboard with your name and your PayPal email.

There must be some confusion, as team IMaWIN submitted a design after the cutoff date. This voids that submission. Team Epitome should be in 3rd place.
