{ you’re super }

Let me first say … you guys rock. We love our customers. Asking you yesterday to tell me what you want to see in the next round of Project Life? Inspiring. Part of that is due to the fact that most of what you shared and suggested? It’s already in the bag. We’re already down that road and making changes & improvements in those directions. Score. Love when minds seem to be in sync. Thank you for confirming what we felt were good ideas.

And then of course, there were several wonderful suggestions that we hadn’t thought about. There you go again — inspiring us. I care a lot about simplifying the process of documenting life for anyone & everyone who has an interest. You already know that. But after reading every single comment and poring over your feedback, I am even more aware of how Project Life is helping you. And we’re even more committed to continually improving the product that we offer. Thank you for your input. And your support. And your awesomeness.

……..

{ moving forward }

Guess what we’re going to do for the 2012 round of Project Life? We’re opening this up to other designers! We invite you (or a designer friend of yours) to enter our Design Contest! How fun is that!? If you know Illustrator and you think you’ve got the next greatest idea for how Project Life should look … and you think $1,000 sounds like a fun prize … well, get to work my friend. You’ve got a couple weeks to submit your design ideas. All the details are outlined in this page.

*** UPDATE ***

The deadline has been extended and you now have until Friday 5/13 to submit your designs.

*** Click HERE to download the Illustrator template. ***

Anyone can enter, as long as you know what you’re doing in Illustrator and follow the rules. This is open to designers in any country. This is open to people I know (even personal friends & family) and people I’ve never heard of. This is open to seasoned designers and those still studying the subject. It doesn’t matter who you are, where you live, or what your style … we want to see what you’ll come up with.

The winner(s) will be chosen based on which designs we like best and think mass amounts of people will like best. Period.

PS – If you’re new to my site/brand/product and you want to familiarize yourself with the 2011 Project Life, you can check out those designs here.
