Shop & next competition

Pixelaward

We are still very excited to be nominated for the Pixelaward (best community) This prestige award could help us getting even more recognition over the world. So please keep supporting us by voting for the “people’s choice award”, and we are confident that the jury will choose the best winner (competition is pretty stiff with Aardvark, which is acquired by Google for 50M US :-)

Shop

The last weeks Djon & his team is working very hard to get the shop live; hopefully we will be able to do this today; the challenges we have are that we want to bring live a multi-currency, multi-language shop where we will include as many possible payment possibilities; especially the local ones in the EU are a challenge due to differences in VAT compared to outside the EU; we try to have 1 single price worldwide (including shipping).

It seems Djon has tackled most challenges in this & we are very excited to go live with the last piece of the puzzle.

2nd International Contest

As announced earlier, we will have the 2nd International Competition soon; we will emphasis on ‘tops’ within this competition; so T-shirts, blouses, Tank tops, layers, shirts & polo’s. In the following competitions we will emphasize on other types of apparel.

The prize for the winner of the design contest will be that the item will be produced & that you will get a part of the revenue, having a produced apparel you designed & recognition.

The prize for the winners of the model & photographer contest will be as well a part of the revenue of the produced item, recognition & a fully paid international photo-shoot. For now it seems we will be able to do this in Singapore, Asia.   We are sooo looking forward to fly over there with our members & create a cool photo-shoot!

Sponsoring

On the sponsoring approach we are finalizing a proposal for 6 sponsors (both global & local) to team up with us online (the site) & offline (TV show, fashion shows & sampling). The first talks were very encouraging, especially because it is clear that with our 360 degrees/365 days communication offer we have something in our hands which is pretty rare in the industry.
