Wiley Design Challenge, a partnership between Wiley and SmugMug.com, is celebrating the holiday season with the “Holiday Card Showdown,” the latest competition in a series of design contests. Graphic designers at all levels are invited to enter their holiday card designs in this wintry battle royale from now through December 31, 2008.

Exercise your creativity and submit a holiday card design for a chance to win by attracting the most “thumbs up” clicks and 5-star comments. Voters don’t have to sign up to vote and comment. Winners will be announced within 2 weeks of the end date.

Winners of the Holiday Card Showdown will be awarded the following prizes:

• Grand Prize: $400, a free SmugMug Pro account for two years, and a $200 gift certificate to SmugMug. Bragging rights included.
• First Prize: $200 worth of Wiley books - dive into our library and go nuts - plus free SmugMug membership for 1 year.
• Second Prize: Your selection of $100 worth of Wiley books. Technology, business, cooking, travel - we’ve got you covered. Plus, free SmugMug membership for 1 year.
