Surprisingly artist Jimmy Benedict lands 4th place @ Design by Humans (1)

I seriously thought Jimmy (jimiyo) would come in the top 3 (for the DBH 10k contest) at the least. I mean look at this design! Anyway as always congrats on the win Jim and glad you made it as a finalist, and yes I believe it was worth you time :)

Was all the work worth it? Not sure. The $1000 is definitely not worth the time investment, but then Is having participated and reached the top tier level of the contest worth the time investment? Because theoretically, many new eyes have been exposed to my name and work. Still feel Defeated, but elated it’s finally over. Now I can start workin!

HAHA. Dang it… quoting me and stuff!

I think Im going to do a write up… There are two or three key points where I made some oversights that probably cost a significant amount of votes.

Like my woot shirt print linked to an old blog post where the person following the links would have had to clicked three times to vote. Most people are still ignorant about how the internet works.

(My parents, still go to jimiyo.com, to go to my blog… instead of bookmarking the blog. HAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHA and I know other people do too…)

Also, it was an awesome experiment in marketing and PR. I learned alot. I will share with the communities…

Anyways… I really wished I could have beat out BRC so I could talk shit. LOL. Oh well…

Thanks for the Peep!
