1. The Rules

Categories	Description
Theme	Fireworks Zone is holding a design contest. Use your imagination and design/illustration to create wallpapers using Adobe Fireworks. Size: 1280x960. The theme is open with one wallpaper per contestant.
Who can compete?	Everybody can participate as long as the artwork is a source PNG which means you require the use of Adobe Fireworks. Your submission must contain contact information and a short one or two line biography, along with the artwork. The contact information must include at least one of the following: home address, phone, or email address (preferably all of them). If you like, include your website URL so we can include it with your biography if you are selected as a winner or runner-up.
Period	From mid October 2009 - December 1, 2009.
Artwork	The artwork must be original and created specifcially for this contest. Formats accepted : Adobe Fireworks source file PNG that means in vector format. Submissions should be emailed to webmaster(at)fireworkszone.com
Converting Text to Paths	Because every computer has a different set of fonts installed on it, you should never assume that the client has the particular font you used available. It is often illegal to deliver font files with your logo, so it is important that you convert all your text to paths, curves or outlines. This step will convert all fonts into a vector shape, and will not allow you to edit the text any further. In Adobe Fireworks, simply select the text you want to outline and go to Text > Convert to Paths.
