So, who are these mythical premium sponsors we've been talking about?  It's been nearly a month now since we kicked this shin-dig off and we still haven't told you who our two big-name sponsors are, who will be contributing some of our top competition prizes.  Well, today,  we're ready to announce the first of our two top sponsors and the prizes they're donating.

I'm very pleased to announce that the prizes for Most Original Icon Package and Most Original Visual Style will be top-end NVIDIA graphics cards from EVGA!

The winner of Most Original Icon Package will get the EVGA e-GeForce 7600GS

e-GeForce 7600 GS 256MB DDR2 AGP Graphics Board

Specs at a Glance:

  • 256-bit GeForce 7600 GS (400MHz clock)

The winner of Most Original Visual Style will get the EVGA e-GeForce 7900GT!

A ton of thanks go to EVGA and NVIDIA for donating these great cards to the competition and their continued support of skinning and the skinning community.   These are two kick-ass cards and come with EVGA's excellent warranty and support. 

The 7600GS is valued at roughly $180, and the 7900 GT is near $300.  New prize total?

$8680!  Almost there....

Good luck!

The GUI Champs 2006 is supported in part by our Premier Sponsors;  NVIDIA/EVGA are our exclusive graphics card sponsors, continuing their ongoing support for skinning and the skinning community.
