this category.

- Read the important FAQ below (Frequently Asked Questions)

|
|
- Can you tell me what awesome idea I should submit?
No, but here are some quick pointers:
- Don't send us something that's already been done.
- Bounce the idea off your friends.
- Don't use any copyrighted terms, character names, company names or logos, etc.
- Take your idea and figure out how to make it better. Then send us that one.
- What Kind Of Artwork can I send?
First of all, artwork is not required to submit a product suggestion. You only need to send artwork if you have artwork skills and the design requires artwork. Sending us
a file that has your suggestion using just a font does not constitute artwork. Do not send us hi-res artwork. We initially only accept artwork less than 400kb. Please send it in JPG or GIF format. If we decide
to use your suggestion and also your artwork, we will contact you with more details.
- Who can submit an idea?
Anyone, anywhere unless it's prohibited by law.
- How long will this bounty program last?
Hopefully forever but we may terninate it at any time. If we do end it, ideas previously submitted and used will of course be paid for.
- What criteria do you use to select a winning idea ?
This is a difficult question to answer. Mostly because there is no absolute way we decide on product ideas. Sometimes we pontificate in groups. Other
times alone. It changes day to day. Ideas that are subtle are preferred to overt or obnoxious ideas and designs. Ideas that are timely are preferred to ideas that are stale. Ideas that relate to the kinds of
things Bunch Of Fun would carry are obviously extremely important. To be blunt, good ideas are the best and bad ones the worst. And our best advice to you is to refine your idea before hastily sending it off to
us. And also bounce it off some of your friends first. Don't ask your Mom, she'll always tell you your ideas are outstanding :)
- When Will I Know If You Picked My Idea?
Glad you asked. Unfortunately you will only hear back from us IF we decide to choose your idea. And that could be anywhere from a few days to several months
depending on various circumstances.
- If You Choose My Idea, How Long Will It Be Before I get Paid?
Within 30 days of your idea being available on our website for sale. Please note that our rubber stamp products can take several months to
produce due to production schedules.
- If You Choose My Idea, How Will I Get paid?
We will send you a cheque or use Paypal, whatever you prefer. Should we choose your idea, we will contact you via email and/or phone in order to determine where
to make payment.
- I don't want Cash, I want a Bunch Of Fun Gift Certificate instead!
Not a problem. Just tell us that when we contact you if we've chosen your idea. In fact, if you want a Gift Certificate instead of cash,
we'll give you $50 instead of $25.
- You Made A Rubber Stamp I Suggested And Never Paid Me!
The staff here at Bunch Of Fun internally have generated hundreds of product ideas over the years. You may have suggested an idea we've already been
sitting on. Also, somebody else might have suggested the idea first. We are not pirates. We designed this program so that you can get paid because that would make you happy and you'll probably tell your friends
how happy you are and that would make us happy and the whole world would be a happy place. If your suggestion is original to us and was the first sent in - you will get paid. Scout's honor.
