Complaints About Flannery Stamp

Here's where this whole discussion has gone off track for you Ikey. You started out guffawing my labeling "design contest" as spec work in the case of the Flannery stamp. Unbeknownst to you, spec work has a specific definition in the creative industry. I even offered a link for you to learn more about it. Since then you have been trying to redefine spec work to fit your arguments. I'm pretty sure this thread has run it's course. I've got a website design for The Mountain Community School to get back to. It's a contract to fulfill and I'm afraid I can't spend any more time tying to educate you. It's been beneficial to me though; I like the exercise.

Sorry - I don't know if you "guffawed". Scoffed is closer to the word I was looking for!

I am happy to leave this where we are.

It was interesting for me to see how off topic this thread became.

I saw the topic as design-process-gone-awry but that's me.

Not complaining at all

I am punch drunk from the long thread.

I just saw this & thought it sums up the creative side well:

(if the Flannery stamp was put to a design contest that would be considered spec work, just to bring it back to topic)

I am going to stick with letting you have the last word.

I'm glad that this was discussed in a civil manner without the moderators having to get involved.

But there might be a limit on just how many times I am going to let you have the last word.

well you two guys keep discussing it then!
