linking to -- Project Rooftop: Look Sharp
With little fanfare the über-cööl Project Rooftop finally got around to posting the winners to the Wolverine: Look Sharp design contest — first announced close to four months ago. Sheesh. If the results weren’t so freakin’ cool (ref. Batman 2.0) I would have given up ages ago.
As it is, only my random-kinda-weekly-but-really-random spot check pulled this one up; I don’t think I’ve seen it announced on any major site. Granted, they posted it a month ago and I still missed it myself — and I’m a big fan (of PR, not necessarily of Wolverine) but I was looking for something grander than just a blog post on Newsarama announcing this:
The Winners are up for Project Rooftop’s Wolverine: Look Sharp Contest! Woot, woot! Notable not just for the innovative design ideas, but also the extended commentary of the judges, one should not be surprised that it takes three months to go through more than 160 entries, and while we might wish they could post more regularly even with half-assed (for them) filler content (as their one-half-of-one-ass kicks the ass of most other sites, even with one ass tied behind their back — OK, I’ll stop now) one still appreciates the effort and dedication-to-concept exhibited by Project Rooftop, and We’ll Take What We Can Get™.
And really, even if you hate Wolverine it might be worth a look (and even if you really hate Wolverine you still need to go over there for some of the previous contests.)
