Hi there, I'm new here so I don't really know if this is allowed here and the search-bar didn't make me much wiser...
Well, basically what I'm asking is, let's say you bring in a design for a contest here, and win with that design. Are you allowed to just post that same design on DeviantArt, or any other site freely or should you ask the contestholder for that?

Thanks,

- Bao

Hi Bao,

If you win a contest, you need to ask the Contest Holder's permission before using that same design elsewhere -- you are basically selling him the rights to that design. If you don't win, you're free to do whatever you would like with the design.

Here are the rules for Contest Holders and Designers: http://www.namepros.com/design-conte...uncements.html

James (user: http://www.namepros.com/members/50965.html ) moderates the design contest section and would be the best person to direct any questions to.

Reece nailed it. Usually people are alright with it, however sometimes they want to keep things very secret and to themselves.
