I have the following correction/addition proposals:

Regarding the rewards:

1st prize…………………………15,000 Tons
2nd prize……………………….10,000 Tons
3rd prize………………………. 5,000 Tons
Next 10 runners up……………. 1,000 Tons each

  1. The total number of winners is therefore 13. Is it somehow related to “necessary” validators number? :smile: I think we should increase it to 15-20, as we have more talented designers out there, as other “graphical” contests proves, such as “stickers”.
  2. I think we should revise the rewards distribution exponent, and make is more like “first 5-10 places are getting the bigger exponential rewards (15000-5000), the others are more like plain 1000 of them”. Because that would give more motivation to designers to make them and we should select 5-10 (more than 3) nicely-done buttons and banners, as every site’s design is different and different styles are better applied to them (i.e. “business”, or “informal” ones). So it’s more profitable to have move then 3 styles of buttons.

Regarding the “Tools for your work”:
3. Add https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/153kFeAS3kv-HE6AQGs1yuZ6d8t1nbSiR link as the example of graphics that should be applied to buttons (add these to “Tools for your work”). The link is taken from “memes” contest.

To make Free TON accepted button when user can pay in one click is very good idea as for me.
Its like I pay in click for goods on aliexpress from my card without repeated verification.

So, community members, any ideas?


There are 3 banners groups * 2 different banners = 6 banners in a banner pack. How did you get 12 banners (12-20 in a banner pack) ?
