Trying to protect an old business model?
With that said, $5 logos most often are crap; a bait and switch situation. However, design contests can be worthwhile and very cost effective. Very good designers, those who've proven themselves, such as through spec work / design contests, can often progress to getting hired for steady in-house design work. Many companies are too small to hire a designer so they contract out work and can't afford / won't pay unless totally satisfied. As long as there are numerous designers seeking work, including many offshore, especially in this lousy economy, spec work / design contests are here to stay. Ron
