As a designer this site is horrible. The contest holders are permitted to be totally nasty to you and you are not allowed to respond in kind. The feedback process should be constructive and plentiful. After all, its only a one week project. The contest holders rarely check in and when they do the feedback isn't just critical, it can be vicious! They seem to forget they are getting thousands of dollars worth of TIME and creativity for the price of one final logo.
The other failure of this site is the sheer quantity of "no winner selected" projects. That's time wasted for everyone involved. Had the contest holder involved themself with the design process that wouldn't happen. Constructive feedback should be mandantory!
Hi Logo R.
I know your review is from like 40 years ago in internet years, but I wanted to leave a message to say that I'm sorry that you had such a bad experience with Hatchwise back in the day.
Hatchwise is one of the pioneers of the crowdsourced design scene, and we've grown a lot and have pretty much completely revamped our platform and systems since 2011. One of our main goals has been working to make sure that the designers get decent feedback on their entries, and we've made some great headway there.
Again, sorry for your trouble, please come visit us if you get a chance and check out how amazing we've become;)
Sincerely,
George Ryan
Hatchwise CEO
