Just found this link. Looks like it’s free and maybe worth a try:
http://www.crestock.com/blog/design/the-crestock-design-contest-2007-101.aspx

Ok, here a fast overview:

- There are 4 rounds with different prices (see below)

- Contestants can participate in one, several or all of the four contest rounds

- The contest is international and open to everyone, regardless of nationality and age.

- Only registered members will be able to vote for the entered images, and if you have an image in the contest you cannot vote for your own entry. (Maybe this will become interesting if more of PSC will participate - I am registered Wink

Ok, before you all put lot's of time in this:
I just clicked through over 600 images in round 1. And it looks like they have some serious problems with friendly voting and cheating!
The first three placed images are in between “bad” and “lame”. Public votes just make 40% of the results, the other 60% is made by professional judges, but it DON’T looks like fun!

I think this shows again, that we can be very happy with the way PSC works Wink

The judges are likely staff photographers..and the guys there always had bad taste.

this has THREE TIMES the votes of the next highest image
http://www.crestock.com/blog/design/contest2007/entry.aspx?id=4654
I think it's safe to say...there's a bit of cheating going on.
BE GLAD then that their judges have 60% of the vote. Shocked
