I participated in several contests over two years at Crowdspring.com. Recently, I won a $200 contest for one of my designs. At this same time, I had some words with a buyer that were unprofessional on both ends. The buyer must have reported me to Crowdspring for this because Crowdspring deleted my account, and never paid me my $200 that I EARNED. After requesting my account be reinstated at least so I can finish the wrap-up process of collecting my money, they denied it twice.
Avoid Crowdspring if you are a hard working, non clip art using designer. No-Spec!

After turning over source files, they informed me that 1) they saw my complaint on here and 2) that they would not release my payment until I deleted my comment. I sucked it up, just because I wanted this to be over with, so I went ahead and said this is resolved. A few days passed and no funds were released. I then sent an email saying they had 2 days to release funds or I'd go to the BBB. Worst company I've ever worked with in the past 5 or so years.
