BG Berlin team is loving your designs proposals so much that they are very happy to announce a new $250 prize for the favorite designer of this crowdstorm design project adding also to more 2 weeks for you to submit your outstanding designs.
We have received a lot requests from designers around the world for time extension and BG Berlin really wants to give the creative community the opportunity to create together in this crowdstorm for 15 more days.
We know we were close to the final days and we really apologize for any inconvinience but we truly believe that as this we are more inclusive with all creative community as a lot of you asked us to give you some more time to participate.
That’s why we also added the MVP award prize that will give $250 to the most value player of this outstanding crowdstorm design project for BG Berlin Urbe Suitcase Collection 2018.
Last but not least, BG Berlin gave us some hints of what they would love to see for this upcoming crowdstorming days to mix concepts to define the final winner designs for their new collection.
Hints
- Iconic/Cultural
- Reminder/Flashback
- Legendary/Society
- Modern/Contemporary
- Retro 80’s-90’s(not vintage)
- Commercial
- Timeless
- Simple
All this points refer to concepts & designs that have a connection with people through time, society and global culture, that’s why the best example for this are their current collection designs such a: “Tv Set“, “Caution“, “Oldschool“ that are their best selling in the global market.
So, that being said, let’s play to create, design & collaborate together with all our talent and skills to make this BG Berlin Urbe Suitcase Collection 2018 the best of the year!

Dear Pictosis. I have many designs that went much higher on ratings, both on number of people who rated them and in overall rating score. To point out just a few:
1: https://www.pictosis.com/bgberlin/bg-berlin-urbe-2018-designs/berlin-%E8%B3%A2%E8%80%85/
(9.44 Rating | 25 Ratings)
2:https://www.pictosis.com/bgberlin/bg-berlin-urbe-2018-designs/vagabond/
(9.88 Rating | 25 Ratings)
3:https://www.pictosis.com/bgberlin/bg-berlin-urbe-2018-designs/i-hear-ya/
( 9.78 Rating | 18 Ratings )
4:https://www.pictosis.com/bgberlin/bg-berlin-urbe-2018-designs/get-lost-in-the-music/
( 9.71 Rating | 17 Ratings )
How come I didn’t earn a spot in the Community Award Winners ?
It’s right
Hello! I have a little question because I don’t quite understand on what are based the community awards? On Rating or something else? Thank you
That information is confidential, even though the contest was handled as «transparent» as possible.
These desings have much higher ratings than many of these awarded. What’s going on?

It’s right
So, monday is when?
Some time next year 🙂
Monday is today! 😉
Is there any news?
I understood that on November 15 the client would reveal his favorite designs, that is, the “client’s choice award”, until now that has not happened …
In my opinion it seems more worrying that to date there is no result on the awards of the community, because the time to subscribe ideas is over and the time to vote too.
Dear community! We have officially received the 10 designs selected by BG Berlin HQ for the new collection! Now, before announcement, we will check each of the selected proposals to revise the © and authenticity of the creator; we need to be fair & transparent on that matter. We are still monitoring all the community ratings to announce the winners hopefully at the same time as client choice! The awaited moment it’s coming very very very soon! Thx for your understanding! We want to do this the best way possible for you! Stay tuned! 🙂
Hey guys, any news bout this competition? Ty 🙂
This is a f*****g joke! And they say this platform is professional…Sure it is 😀
p.s. check comments from previous contests, same shit!
nah man, its not them who decide.. its the clients mistake i would think.. but anyways it could be a bit more precise when giving us informations… anyways i hope the results will come out soon..
Thx a lot paskal for your understanding & engagement with the community! We really appreciate it! Thumbs up!
🙂
Dont kid yourself. What you are doing is extremely inappropriate and I believe illegal as well. I am reporting you people.
I have the whole time in the world for waiting. The point is completely different.
Cheers Paskal
anyhow, no need to be angry 🙂 they got 1600+ designs to go through.. decisions decisions 🙂 better to take it slow than rush through everything 🙂
Hi there! Our rating period just ended! Thank you a lot for all your fair votes in your favorite designs! Now we’ll be monitoring all ratings to confirm that the process was done with real fair play! The announcement week is here, buckle up your seat belts, and stay tuned! Community Winners & Clients Choice Winners announcement coming very soon… 🙂
*All the designs ratings that you can see now ain’t the final results, after monitoring, ratings may vary. Let’s check out to clean up any bashing attempt. Thx for your patience! Monitoring in process… 🙂
Dear Pictosis!
Finlay we got some answer from you. I bet that every designer involved in this contest is patiently waiting for your response, which supposed to happened yesterday.
Thank you for this update, and please keep us in mind on the scheduled day.
Yours,
Lunlumo
Very well said. Bunch of amateurs.
I understand everything. Still my point was that you noted us day after the first deadline… Please in future when you decide to arrange contests, be aware of the people waiting for your answer on time! You are the hosts, right?! Because that kind of behavior, we lose confidence to be part of other contests, we don’t trust 100% anymore. Don’t be selfish, you are the face of another hundreds design platforms.
And, yes fix the bug on your site, I want to get notification of your replies.
Cheers
Thank you all for your outstanding proposals designs & incredible engagement into this project! It’s been an awesome crowdstorm with more than 1,600 designs entries! Wow! Wow! Wow! Amazing!
Now it’s time for you to give ratings by fairly voting during this week for your favorite designs that you love and will like to see them winning community prizes!
In the meantime, our team will be monitoring and validating © for all proposals to be sent them to BG Berlin HQ for the final shortlist & client choice winners!
Good luck to everyone!
🙂
how can i submit???? 🙂 dont tell me is too lateeeee!!!
Im, sorry but yeah… now its too late
Hey guys, what’s up with the results of the competition for BG Berlin?
Hi guys! Where can I download the measurements to make my design? and the assembly of the travel suitcase? I do not see any link 🙁
Link on this page https://www.pictosis.com/bgberlin/urbe-collection-2018/#briefing|1
Under Dowload materials! Good luck)
Hi, Can You tell me what is the difference of cover image and design image. With one I must add the image with the suitcase. Thank You 🙂
Friends of the contest.
I make a simple recommendation: check the size of your files to fit the requirements of the contest, which is 2000x2000px and 300ppi.
I greet you
Hi Pictosis!
I have one doubt if different versions of my artwork such as applying different colors on the same theme should be uploaded together, or should I upload them separately, meaning each color – different entry.
Thank you 🙂
Hi dear bkoroshevska! You better upload them separately! Thx! Good luck!
🙂
Hello, when we’ll be able to see the halftime feedback? Or am I not seeing it?
Good morning.
I already been contacted by pictosis by e-mail and they told me to send the design by e-mail, but they never uploaded on my account. I send it in September 30. Sorry for taking your time but only left 9 days to the end of the contest.
Hope someone could help me.
Thank you for your time.
are you posting the previews in png?
hey!
I’m having a problem submiting my 2nd design. When I’m uploading the images appears an error “Error #-200: HTTP Error.”. I don’t know what to do. I really need some help.
thank you.
Hello Pictosis team!
I am a stock illustrator and I would like to know if I may upload some of my works that are currently selling on microstocks and remove them from microstocks later if any of them are chosen?
Hello dear Designers, Artists & Creators from around the world! Thank you very much for all your talented & outstanding work so far! We have received our halftime feedback directly from the client, Bg Berlin, and they are very very happy with your incredible creations. Soon we’ll publish a blog post with all key points for you to get guided & inspired for the final weeks of this awesome crowdstorm design for Bg Berlin Urbe Suitcase Collection 2018. Keep on your amazing work! Good luck to everyone! 🙂
Hello, I have entered some of my designs for the contest and I would like to know if there is a problem with the designs because some of my designs are uploaded at my online stores (pod sites) in various products. Should I delete the designs from the contest or should I delete them from the other sites and must I do this now or after the contest ends?
Hello Designers! Really nice designs 🙂 Keep up the good work we would love to see more
PS. Please keep it simple and modern! Really cool stuff so far, thank you
Hello!!! How can I place my design on the bag?
Hi there!
I have a problem that I have no ideia how can I resolve.
I want to participate in this great contest, but I usually work with Photoshop. We receive a Illustrator file and them, probably, we can upload this file to photoshop. How can I include my design work on the bag? I don’t understand the “Double Click” thing.
Thank you people!
when you double click it opens an illustrator archive, your desing should be pasted there, it then modelates itself in the suitcase
Hello! Such a great contest! I can’t wait to start working on it! :)) Just one question – how many designs can we submit or just one?
Somehow I’ve missed this info in the brief the first time but now I got it. I can’t delete the comment though. Good luck to everyone!
Hello. Can someone explain to me how ti upload my photo to suitcase mockup ??
“You must use templates files from download material section”
No entiendo. ¿Sólo puedo usar plantillas? ¿Qué plantillas, en este caso? ¿No puedo crear mis propias plantillas?
Ya entendí lo de la plantilla. Ahora mi pregunta es, ¿tengo que hacer el diseño solo y también hacerlo en el modelo de PS?
Hola Nanissi! el archivo .ai (illustrator) es para que lo utilices como guía del tamaño que debes crear tu diseño para que esté listo en caso de que el cliente lo elija como ganador. El archivo .psd es un archivo que te ayuda a incorporar tu diseño en las 2 caras de la maleta (front/back). Entonces, deber subir como “Cover Image”de tu idea el mockup (diseño incorporado en la maleta) y luego como “Design Image” tu diseño abierto, todo esto en cualquiera de los formatos que se indican en el briefing. Espero te esto ayude. Gracias y buena suerte!
🙂
Hello, I think im having a little problem, can you help me? When I tried to upload my design image (4.5 MB) 2000 x 2000px (300dpi) .jpg, I see the message “Error #-200: HTTP Error.” What do I do?
Hello dear cysan! We’ll check to see whats the issue, if you can maybe try to decrease a bit the file size to upload it. If the “error” remains, please send us an email to support@pictosis.com to help you uploading your design. Thx!
🙂
Thank you <3
AWESOME designs so far dear designers, creators & crowdstormers! We are very happy to see your skills & incredible talent! Still 39 days to go for you to create your very own suitcase for the new BG Berlin Urbe Suitcases Collection 2018! Keep on rocking! We love you! Go go go! Thx!
🙂
Hi, do you have any video on how to put the design in the mock up file, because the template file doesn’t meet the same specifications as the photoshop file, please provide some info on that, as i can see, lot of people are having the same difficulty!
Any support, help or question you may have please write it down here at the briefing comments so we all can give feedback or any idea to help each other to improve, manage files, etc! Awesome work so far! Keep on the great work!
🙂
hola, es un concurso internacional?
Es un concurso internacional?*
Hola Eli20! Si, es un proyecto que está abierto para todo el mundo!
🙂
Hello Pictosis,
I’ve managed to download the cover design, however the template design is coming up blank so I’m confused. Also, Photoshop isn’t my strong point, I’ve gotten as for as downloading and placing the file into PS where I now see the suitcase but I don’t know how to attach my file/design. Any help would be great, thanks 🙂
