Another point was made by my brother:

If anyone tries to steal anyone elses artwork, and simply flips the color gradient that is cheating and I will kick you out of the contest.

Also, DONT FORGET TO POST THE EFFECT!

I really want to design a gaffed card, but I just don't have good creativity, so I have to think for a while, but i promise I will post soon when I find some ideas, and I will find

Nope, not yet, remember guys, their due in like 2 weeks. Don't make me extend, because then I have to reorganize everything...

Remember! You win a free gaff card, and VIP!

Also, remember, if only 3 people join you have a 33.3333% of winning, which is still good! And I'm not even the one that votes on it, other people do...so keep that in mind.

Creativity to design one is good, but a bulk of where people are going to judge is not only the design, but also the effect possible.

Most of the points are for creativity though

So do we have to post a picture for the gaffs, right? It can't be JUST an explanation?

And we may have as many cards as we'd like, as long as they're in a sequence, correct?

Just want to double check before I post my awesome gaff idea.

We need to design AND explain it, but you needn't to print it out and make a video tutorial or so, just a picture and the description.

I'm here to fix that!

EFFECT:
The top card on the deck is shown to be the 3 of diamonds. The magician explains that s/he never really liked the number 3, and decides to change it. Rubbing on the card, the magician messes up the card. The top parts of the threes are all blurry! The magician apologizes, and gives the card a shake, and the blurs go away, leaving two half circles. Then, with a flick, one of the half circles jump up to the other, forming a crude eight. What's more, the number of pips have increased from 3 to (You guessed it) 8! The spectators think this is the end, but the magician has other ideas. S/he openly places the "8" of diamonds on the bottom of the deck, then patters on about the frailty of cards. To prove his point, he has a spectators slam his or her hand down on the deck. The deck is turned over, and the bottom card is littered with spades, diamonds, hearts, and clubs! There's even the occasional number or two! The deck is the spread through and, much to the amazement of the audience, every card, save for the face cards and aces, have gone completely blank. Everything is examinable.

There it is.

Thats nice

Really Smart Idea!
You could probably stick a lot of humor in it throughout the trick. It seems like it could be "street" and you could have a lot of fun with that
The end seems a bit "raw" if you will, but still...really cool!
