FAQ Entry #104

This is a respond to a previously asked question about the A' Design Award and Competition. The full list of frequently asked questions can be accessed here.

#104: If I want to add different designs in different categories, do I need to register multiple times?

We really made the submission system easy for designers, so you do absolutely not need to register multiple times; indeed you cannot register two times even if you want; only one registration for a single email address. Other than that, when you register for the first time, you can upload as many designs in as many different categories using the same account, this way we can also keep track of your global score and also you can access all your designs from the same page. However, If you want to submit multiple designs into different categories, you need to nominate your design once for each category you want to join. A design can only be nominated to a single category, but if you really really want, you can upload the same design more than once to nominate it for an alternative category as well, however this is really not encouraged. To sum up, registering once, you can upload many designs, and from your control panel, you can access and nominate all your different design, so if you want to add different designs in different categories, you need to register once.

• #157: I have my brand or logo patented in my country only. If I were to show this logo in publications, would this be detrimental to the continued existence of my brand, since it will be exposed at an international level where I have no protection. Would an additional copyright covering 164 countries help ?

• #359: If I register but change my mind about submitting my work, am I still liable to pay fees?

• #397: Can we submit our products free and decide on nomination after the preliminary score?
• #466: I didn't get a confirmation email after registration and couldn't further proceed what should be done?
