MySpace, Australia, is partnering with us to run its very first Arts & Culture contest. Inspired by the shared artwork they see on their website everyday, MySpace/Au thought it’d be awesome to deck out their offices with wall graphics designed by members. So, this is your chance to customize blik and play interior designer. Submit your designs along with how they should be laid out on the wall. The winning concepts will be made into wall graphics by yours truly then installed at MySpace/Au headquarters for all to enjoy…if you work at MySpace, Australia, that is But of course you’ll get a set for yourself as well.

We all can’t wait to see what you come up with! Hurry, contest ends May 16th.

Threadless, the awesome online community-based tee shirt company we all know and love, is kicking off another Threadless Loves competition. This one is all about the goodness of text. The challenge? Create and manipulate text in a way that it becomes the design, not just part of it. The prize? You get an opportunity to design two upcoming TypeTees, a Wacom Intuous Tablet, and some blik swag - our Veer Typography wall graphics or a $250 gift certificate - and more. So get crackin’! We can’t wait to see what you come up with.

Yep, it’s that time of year again. In the holiday spirit, we’ve teamed up with popular social shopping community, Kaboodle, to give away some gifts of our own.
