Hi Dan,
Being a BIPPmember overseas(I'm located in Holland) there is the National Print Exhibition from the BIPP which is greatly appreciated. Just contact the BIPPheadquarters at bipp.com.
Also you can visit
http://www.wppinow.com/competition/ or the Kodak Photo Competition.
Joe, What's wrong with winnig a few awards? It gave my bussiness a big boost and it still is, winning a nomination in Holland two weeks ago(it was only a nomination but it gave us a very nice article in the paper an a spread in one of the leading weddingmagazines here in their next issue.
My clients appreciate our work and our effort to compete and grow in creativity.
I respect your way but it brings money in the bank.
Regards
Rich
