We invite you to enter GDUSA’s 2024 American Digital Design Awards™. The contest formerly known as ‘Web Design’ honors the power of design to enhance online and interactive experiences  – for websites, yes, but also social media, email marketing, digital ads and publications, interactive and interface design, video and animation, and more. It’s a great opportunity to be recognized by clients, managers, colleagues and the community for design excellence in this critical area of need. Graphic Design USA (GDUSA) has been publishing to and organizing competitions for the creative community for 61 years; this is the 24th annual digital design awards.

SPECIAL NOTE TO ENTRANTS

Now in our 61st year, GDUSA competitions have grown so large that we have engaged a specialized awards firm respected and renowned — OPENWATER — that greatly simplifies the entry process and makes the flow easier and more intuitive for you. Among the upgrades: you can start an entry, save it in draft, and finish it  later; and we have created a CART system that lets you collect all the entries and pay once at the end of the process with all major credit cards. GDUSA will, of course, continue to control all design,  content, and review activities.

1. CREATE A NEW ACCOUNT OR LOG IN

In most cases you will need to open a new account. This is quick and easy; just a few lines of basic information such as name, company, address, email. If you happen to already have an OpenWater account, you can simply log in.

2. SELECT THE CATEGORY

Select the category that best describes your entry.

3. SUBMIT ENTRY DETAILS

For each entry, design firm or creative agency or inhouse department plus client, title of entry, creative credits.

4. UPLOAD DIGITAL FILES/ELECTRONIC ARTWORK

Specifications are provided for all types of categories. In most cases, you will be asked to upload 1-4 images that display your entry or 1 composite image that includes the highlights. When relevant, such as for websites and videos, we ask for the URL as well as the 1-4 supporting still images. For the images, we much prefer JPGs but will accept other formats.

5. PAYMENT FOR ENTRIES (AND PAST WINNER DISCOUNT)

Each entry automatically appears in a CART and you can pay once for any or all entries at the end. We accept payment by major Credit Cards or via Paypal. There are deep volume discounts built automatically into the entry fee schedule (see below).
