One of the unique products that 4by6.com offers is their Portfolio Packs, which allows you to print 4 different cards. Portfolio Packs come in every size and finish that 4by6.com offers. Send these cards to your client list, one after the other (or go ahead and send them to whoever you want).

We are very excited to announce a new design contest with 4by6.com. So let's get to the details.

Contest dates:

Monday, June 11 through Monday, June 25th

How to enter:

COLOURlovers use our design tools to create a pattern and color in a 4x4" square card and submit it to our online gallery. Use your own patterns and then color them however you like! It really is that simple. Give it a try, and keep in mind you can submit as many entries as your heart desires.

Voting process:

COLOURlovers will vote for their favorite submissions, and the most loved entries will receive their respective prizes. The entry that receives the most love notes will be awarded 1st Prize; the entry that receives the second most love will be awarded 2nd Prize; the entry that receives the third most love will be awarded 3rd Prize. 4th - 20th Honorable Mentions will also be determined in the same way.

Prizes:

·         First Place: $250 in 4by6.com Print Dollars for any product on 4by6.com (not including S&H)

·         Second Place: $100 in 4by6.com Print Dollars for any product on 4by6.com (not including S&H)

·         Third Place: $50 in 4by6.com Print Dollars for any product on 4by6.com (not including S&H)

·         4th - 20th Honorable Mentions: 50 Free 4x4" Satin Square Cards (not including S&H)

The timeline for the contest will go like this:

Submissions will close at the end of the day Wednesday, June 20th. Voting will remain open from Thursday, June 21st to Sunday, June 24th. The winner will be announced on Monday, June 25th.

Good luck!

We create a pattern...that's the original. Then we create an entry from that pattern...that's what appears as the "duplicate" pattern. So it appears that you have two of the same pattern, but the one tagged 4by6-postcard is the actual entry in the contest. The tags are right below the "Favorited by" section. Loves toward the original patterns aren't counted for the contest.

You can also click on that 4by6-postcard tag on your pattern, or here, to see all the entries.

Hi, I've created 15 patternsfor this competition so far, but when I go to my profile to see those recently created patterns, each one of them is duplicated. What's going to happen to the votes received? I mean, there is one pattern that has one vote in one version and no votes in the other duplicated version.
Why is this happening? Will it be solved somehow? IN a previous competition I saw that happening too and the votes were not added.
Thank you.

Thank you so much, dear. I finally realised how things worked, but decided to keep just the patterns submitted for the contest.

Ah, it looks like that link has "Postcard" instead of "postcard" in the URL. This one should work for you: http://www.colourlovers.com/contests/4by6/postcard.

Yes, they should fix that. It's the link on every entry page for me. I have to access this post through other means.
