Good judging! Congratulations to the winners! Well done and well deserved
Third and fourth place looks fantastic… Creative and professional. Congrats for everyone but specially for those.
Cheers.
can i see these slidedecks in action somewhere?
@Matt – these were the design contest winners, no development was needed to win. We will be converting these designs + the other 15 runner ups to usable skins for SlideDeck. We do not have a date set as to when these will roll out, but we will be starting with the 1st place winner and working our way down.
Cheers!
Is there somewhere we can sign up to be notified when the SlideDeck Library officially opens?
@Richard you can follow us on twitter with @slidedeck or sign up for the email list when you download the latest version of the library: http://www.slidedeck.com/download
