spacer Prizes & Sponsors

Before anything else, we want to make sure that we thank all of our wonderful sponsors! They have generously donated to a very new type of design contest here. Be sure to click through to their sites to check out what they have to offer, as well as the specific links to what they are offering for this contest.
