We Want Your Art!
Customer Gallery Credit: We are always
looking for art to display in our online Customer Gallery. Send us your
stamped art using Third Coast images, and for each piece of your work we
display we'll send you a $5.00 Gallery Gift
Certificate good toward your next Third Coast purchase. Your art may
contain stamps from other companies, however it must be composed primarily
of Third Coast images, or feature one of our images as the centerpiece.
Your art will be returned only if you request that we do so. Please feel
free to send files of your scanned art via e-mail, 72 to 150 dpi, JPG, GIF,
BMP or TIF formats work best. We prefer that you list the source of other
images in your work, but it is not mandatory.
Technique Submission Credit: When you
send a detailed written technique of your creation for publication to the
Customer Gallery, we’ll give you $10.00
Technique Gift Certificate. This is in
addition to the $5.00 Gallery Gift Certificate. Your technique must include
a complete list of supplies used in addition to a step-by-step method
written in an easy to follow manner.
Print Publication Credit: If your work
using at least one Third Coast image is published in a major stamping or
stamping-related print publication, and we are credited in the publication,
you are entitled to a $20.00 Print Publication
Gift Certificate.
Digital Publication Credit: If your work
using primarily Third Coast images is *permanently published on a
**well-known stamping or stamping-related website which is ***accessible by
the general public, and we are credited for the images on the website, you
are entitled to a $5.00 Digital Publication Gift
Certificate.
Double Whammy! If you have a piece
published in more than one place, you are eligible for BOTH credits! For
example, if you send us a stamped scene that we publish in our Customer
Gallery, and it’s later published in Rubber Stamp Madness, you are eligible
for a $5.00 credit plus a $20.00 credit.
To receive credit for your art published either in print publications or
on websites, you must draw them to our attention. We don’t always notice
them or have means to contact you. So speak up, and don’t be shy. We love
seeing our images published. We want to thank you and reward you!
Third Coast retains sole right to select or reject customer submissions,
and to determine if a given submission or publication meets our requirements
for receiving a gift certificate reward.
*Permanently published means the work was posted with the intent of
remaining in place indefinitely. Works published with the intent of being
viewable for a short duration are not eligible.
**Well-known means that the site is not obscure and has a high hit volume.
We retain the sole right to judge whether or not a given website is
eligible.
***Accessible by the general public means the site and the posted piece can
be viewed by anyone. Membership-based sites are eligible, as long as anyone
can join for free, and membership is not limited in any way.)
This new policy is retro-active to January 1,
2006. These rules subject to change at any time.
