It would be nice if Spoonflower would agree to enforce the rules of their contests. It is ridiculous that non-toile and non-compliant colour schemes were allowed to outrank designs by creators who actually followed the rules. It sets a bad precedent and makes me question what the rules re even for!
Or clip art for that matter……even the winner?!
