Dribbble Invite Giveaway*

Dribbble-Invite

“Dribbble is show and tell for designers, who share shots – small screenshots of the designs and applications they’re working on.”

I was lucky enough to have been “drafted” (invited) early 2012 into the Dribbble community (Thanks @misosoup). I can definitely say that Dribbble has been an amazing resource for feedback and inspiration!

Very rarely do members get invites to draft new players, so I can tell you that these are not to be wasted on just anyone that asks. Those who are interested in obtaining their invite have to prove themselves.

I’m excited to say that Dribbble has given me 2 invitations to draft new players – so let’s cut to the chase!

To be one of the lucky draftees, here’s what you’ll need to do:

  1. Sign-up for a prospect account if you haven’t already.
  2. Leave a comment on this blog post containing:
    • A brief explanation on why you want to be drafted
    • A link to your portfolio or your favorite piece of work
    • To better your chances: Tweet this post! If you’re confident in your work, then there’s no reason to worry about slimming your chances.

Optional

The giveaway will end Friday January 26th. The two winners will be announced on Twitter & Facebook.

Best of luck! :)

*The Winners

The two winners have been chosen and drafted! Go give them both a follow:
Erick @theyumyum on Dribbble
Chris @chriswong on Dribbble

    Hi, I’m mostly into film and video but I’d like to expand my graphic design skills, I know Dribbble is a great place to improve yourself. I don’t know a lot of people who have a lot of skills in graphic design so. I’d especially like to improve myself on UI design.

  • Giuge

    Hi,
    I am an italian autodidact web designer from Turin, Italy.
    Dribbble it’s not been only a source of inspiration for me, it’s been a way to meter the quality of my work:
    I always watched the beautiful work produced by great designers and always wished I could reach that
    skill level. I think that I have now reached an adequate level to be a part of dribbble.
    I want to be a dribbble member to get my work critiqued and to get better myself. I also think that I have enough
    knowledge to be able to critique work made by others in a good and constructive way.
    But enough talking, here’s some shots: http://d.pr/i/9u6u

    I’m in the process of redesigning my own portfolio, here’s the current state of the redesign of it: http://mocku.ps/4huu1r

    My prospect page is: http://dribbble.com/giuge

    It really means a lot for me,

    Thank you Giuseppe

  • welogodesigner

    I have a fair amount of experience in designing. My style is very clean, fair and unique. I have done a good amount of projects done.

    I believe making a very high standard design is challenging and requires a great skill, understanding and knowledge and a great designer too. I am confident that I have all of these quality so I will be pleasured if I got drafted to dribbble.

Dribbble has been and is a great source for inspiration to me and appears to be a great community of all creative types which I would love to be a part of. Hopefully I can inspire some one the way I get inspiration from the Dribbble community.
